A monitoring device has a first flame detector, to receive a first batch of radiation, which is emitted by the first flame, a second flame detector, to receive a second batch of radiation, which is emitted by the second flame, a voltage supplying device to apply an alternating voltage with a first half wave and a second half wave to the two flame detectors and an evaluation circuit that is connected to the two flame detectors via a signal input. A first measurement signal that is present at the common signal input during the first half wave is indicative of the intensity of the first batch of radiation. A second measurement signal that is present at the common signal input during the second half wave is indicative of the intensity of the second batch of radiation. The evaluation circuit independently evaluates the first measurement signal and the second measurement signal.

Monitoring of the presence of two flames in a fuel combustion device

The invention relates to a flame-monitoring device in which an a.c. input voltage (U) is limited to a voltage limit (U) by means of a voltage limiter (). Said voltage limit (U) is applied to a flame sensing device () which operates by means of the rectifying effect of a flame, and through which a current (i) flows, especially when a flame () is present. An asymmetric voltage limit (U) can be defined by said voltage limiter (), said limit being then applied to the sensing device ().

Flame-monitoring device

Automatic operation of a blower burner () suitable for liquid and/or gaseous fuels for the generation of heat energy in a furnace () is monitored by an automatic regulating device (). The automatic regulating device () comprises an automatic firing device array () and an actuating drive () located in a common housing (). The automatic regulating device () is connected to a furnace control device (A), monitoring probes () and a fuel feeding and dosing device () by means of a terminal sleeve () in the housing (). Based on the signals from the monitoring probes (), the automatic regulating device () regulates the amount of air flowing into the combustion chamber () depending on the amount of fuel required for heat output so that optimal fuel combustion takes place in the combustion chamber () (for instance combined electronic control).
