How Does a Burner Controller Work?
A Burner Controller manages the programmed operating sequence of a burner. During startup, the controller can initiate the required pre-purge cycle, activate the ignition system and open the appropriate fuel valve according to the configured sequence.
The controller receives a flame signal from a suitable flame detector, UV flame scanner or other approved flame-sensing device. If the expected flame is not established or the flame is lost during operation, the controller can initiate a safety shutdown according to the system design.
