Honeywell C7962 UV Flame Scanner

Honeywell C7962 UV Flame Scanner — Ultraviolet Flame Detection for Saudi Oil, Gas, and Power Burner Applications

The Honeywell C7962 is an ultraviolet flame scanner providing reliable flame detection for oil, gas, and combination burners across Saudi Arabia's power generation, desalination, and industrial heating applications. From SEC's combined cycle power plants to Marafiq's desalination boiler systems, the C7962 delivers proven UV flame detection that meets the demanding requirements of Saudi industrial standards.

Saudi Aramco Engineering Standards specify UV flame scanners for burners firing refinery gas and liquid fuels — the UV detector is more reliable than flame rods for oil flames where carbon deposits reduce flame rod conductivity. The C7962's self-checking UV tube provides the fail-safe flame detection required for SIS-rated burner management applications.

Key Features

Self-Checking UV Tube: Internal UV tube performs a self-check every second — if the UV tube fails or is blocked, the scanner drops output within 2 seconds, triggering safe burner shutdown. This self-test function meets Saudi Aramco FGS requirements.

Oil and Gas Flame Detection: Sensitive to UV emissions from both gas and oil flames — eliminates the soot-related reliability issues of flame rods in oil-fired applications.

45° Detection Angle: Wide detection cone allows flexible mounting — can be mounted up to 1.5 meters from the flame zone while maintaining reliable detection.

Oil-Fired Applications: Specifically specified for Saudi Aramco burners firing liquid fuels — replaces flame rod systems in applications where flame rod reliability suffers from oil flame soot.

Applications in Saudi Arabia

SEC Combined Cycle Power Plants (Riyadh, Jeddah): C7962 monitors gas turbine ignition pilots and HRSG duct burners — critical for safe start-up sequencing in Saudi Arabia's largest power generation facilities.

Aramco Refinery Boiler Plant: C7962 replaces flame rods on heavy fuel oil burners — reliable flame detection despite soot from high-sulfur fuel oil combustion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the Honeywell C7962 UV flame scanner price in Saudi Arabia? Contact RAZZ at sales@razz.sa. RAZZ is a Honeywell authorized distributor in Saudi Arabia and stocks C7962 with full warranty and technical support. Volume pricing available for project orders.

Q2: Can C7962 be used with Honeywell R7847 relay? Yes — C7962 is designed to work with the R7847B 7-pin flame safeguard relay. RAZZ supplies the complete flame safeguard system including scanner, relay, and flame rod or UV tube as specified.

Q3: What is the expected UV tube life in Saudi Arabia's harsh environment? Typical UV tube life is 3–5 years in normal service. In high-temperature furnace environments, tube life may be shorter. RAZZ recommends annual flame signal level checks during planned maintenance shutdowns.
