Quanta Flame 5004-795 Flame Safeguard Controller

The Quanta-Flame 5004-795 is an innovative flame safeguard controller designed for single burner applications. The controller sequences the burner through Purge, Ignition, Pilot Trial for Ignition, Main Trial for Ignition, and Run modes. The 5004-795 controller is a direct replacement for most Honeywell R4795 controls.

Overview

Controller Functions: The controller sequences the burner through Purge, Ignition, Pilot Trial for Ignition, Main Trial for Ignition, and Run modes. It monitors the burner flame and running interlocks to safely shut down the burner in the event of an unsafe operating condition. LEDs are provided for status and diagnostics including: Flame Proven, Limits Made, Combustion Air Present, Pilot Gas Valves Energized, Main Gas Valves Energized, Air Switch Fault, Flame Failure, Lockout, and Power

Functional Summary

Recycle Mode: When selected, the control will recycle the burner through Purge and startup when the main burner has shutdown with a Flame Failure alarm. The recycling of the burner will only occur after the main burner has been in operation. There is no recycle on pilot flame failure.

Pilot Turndown Test Mode: Permits the pilot to ignite and remain burning regardless if Interrupted or Intermittent pilot has been selected. The main burner will not be ignited as long as the control is in this mode. This permits the service technician to adjust and inspect the pilot flame. To enter this mode hold the reset button down until the limit light begins to flash (10 seconds). To exit the pilot test mode press the reset button and the control will rest into the normal run mode.

Interrupted Pilot: The pilot will ignite and be turned off 10 seconds after the main burner valve is opened 

Intermittent (non-interrupted pilot): The pilot will ignite and remain lit for the entire duration of the main burner run cycle

Pilot Verification Feature: The ignitor will be de-energized 5 seconds before the main valve is energized to ensure the pilot flame is stable before lighting the main burner

False Flame Indication: If the control senses a flame out of the proper sequence, the sequence will stop and wait for 30 seconds for the False Flame signal to disappear. During this time the Flame Fail light and the Alarm light will blink on and off. If the signal disappears the lights will cease blinking and the sequence will continue. If the False Flame signal is present for more than 30 seconds the lights will stay on continuously and the control will go into lockout.

 

Flame Signal Analog Meter Jacks: Two test probe inputs are located on the front of the control. By inserting the meter probes from a high impedance (100k ohm/volt) DC volt meter the control will indicate the relative flame signal level in the range of 0 to 5 VDC.

Selectable Purge Time: The Purge time is selectable by means of the selector switches located under the right hand cover of the control. The Purge times selected by each switch (5 through 8) are added together for the total purge time. (For example, the maximum Purge time is 7 + 10 + 30 + 60 seconds or 107 seconds).

Shorted Air Switch Check: The control verifies that the air switch is not shorted at each occurrence of control lockout. When the fan is de-energized during lockout the control will check to see if the air switch opens. If the air switch fails to open the “air fail” light will blink to indicate the air switch is still closed. This will alert the operator that the air switch is not functioning properly.

Air Failure: The control constantly monitors the airflow switch input.  The input must be present before the purge time will begin. If the control loses the air switch input at some point in the burner cycle after the start of Purge, the control will reset to the start of the Purge cycle and wait for the air switch to close.

Control Reset: When the control enters a Lockout condition the red Alarm light will light and begin blinking. To reset the control press the Reset button on the front of the control for three seconds. The control will not reset on power interruption. Lockout conditions for the control are:

  • Flame Failure
  • False Flame present for more that 30 seconds
  • Relay failure and internal fault

Remote Display: The optional 5004-216RN display is a panel mounted display for the 5004 Series Quanta-Flame Controls. It mounts in a control panel through a 1/8 DIN mounting hole and is secured with the included mounting clips. During operation the display will indicate each step in the control sequence. When the main burner is in the run mode the flame signal level will be indicated in a range of 0 to 5 VDC. The display constantly refreshes itself with new information from the control. This refreshing is indicated by the slight periodic blink of the messages.

Application

The 5004-795 flame safeguard controller is designed to directly replace the Honeywell R4795 Controls. This controller sequences the burner through Purge, Ignition, Pilot Trial for Ignition, Main Trial for Ignition, and Run modes. It monitors the burner flame and running interlocks and will shut down the burner in the event of flame failure. DIP switch selectable purge time & TFI Built-in Amplifier will accept UV or flame rod (jumper selectable).
