ABBSymphony Plus Combustion Instruments

Flexible and Reliable Device for use with all ABB Flame Detectors. The Flame Analysis Unit, or FAU810, is ABB’s latest leading-edge fl ame analysis device. The FAU810 is designed from the ground up for maximum fl exibility, usability and reliability. It takes advantage of the latest technologies available to make fl ame analysis as cost-effi cient as possible, while retaining ABB’s rock-solid reputation as the most reliable instruments in the industry. The FAU810 is easy to install and confi gure, fl exible to operate, and uses redundant Profi bus DP-V1 or standard Modbus interfaces for easy and safe data exchange and tuning. You can connect any type of ABB Flame sensing device to the FAU810. This makes the FAU810 the standard module for all ABB Flame Scanner application and the preferred solution for retrofi tting existing installation. It determines if the current signal value is within the programmed limits as defi ned by Functions. A variety of limits can be defi ned in the FAU810 to account for any situation that may occur in utility or industrial boilers.

Collects Signal Values from the Flame Detector The FAU810 analyzes the signals generated from the Flame Detector. Calculates Signal Quality The FAU810 measures the quality of the signal to provide an indication of changes in the burner flame. Quality values act as a barometer, forecasting when a burner flame-out is likely to occur. This can help you to anticipate changes and problems. Continuously Detect Faults The instrument automatically monitors the electronic components of the Flame Detector and FAU810 unit to detect system problems or faults. Signals Unsafe Conditions A no-flame condition occurs when the FAU810 logic determines that an unsafe condition exists. Remote supervisory Extended set-up, parameter fi les archiving, groups view, advanced diagnostic including fl ame raw data, real time and historical trends of up to 254 scanner heads networked is possible either through the PC based package Flame ExplorerTM or with DTM through any Profi bus DP-V1 master remote.

FAU810 Specifications Each Flame Analysis Unit consists of two independent channels. Each channel can receive and process a Flame Detector signal. The two Detectors may be in any combination of the following designs: 

− SF810 Flame scanner heads 

− All DFS Flame scanner heads

− Flame Rods (Ionic Flame Monitoring) Each Detector is independently configurable from the FAU810 pushbuttons and display, with Flame Explorer engineering tool or via Profibus The FAU810 can be powered by a single or redundant 24 VDC source (+/- 20%). The FAU810 has built-in diode auctioneering for power source isolation. Two digital input channels are available for remote parameter switching. One digital input per sensor. (Example: Parameters for a dedicated Flame Detector may be tailored to monitor either coal or oil firing) The FAU810 can be upgraded on site with any official release of new product features by the proprietary Firmware Download Utility
