The Siemens LAE10 burner program controller is a sophisticated unit designed to provide flame protection for burners in intermittent operation. The controller is equipped with a flame monitoring circuitry that includes a self-test function to enhance safety measures. A controlled shutdown is recommended at least every 24 hours to ensure proper function.
The LAE10 is specially designed for use with the selenium photocell detector RAR for effective monitoring of oil fires. This ensures efficient and safe operation of the burner and reduces the risk of potential hazards.
With its advanced features and reliable performance, the Siemens LAE10 burner program controller is an essential component of industrial burners that require precise flame monitoring and protection. You can rely on the quality and innovation of our burner control technology.
I. Basic Overview
Brand and Origin: The LAE10 is produced by Siemens, formerly branded as LANDIS&GYR, and is manufactured in Germany.
Aliases: Flame controller, flame monitor, flame amplifier.
II. Main Functions
Flame Monitoring: The LAE10 is primarily used in conjunction with the Siemens RAR series of fuel oil flame detectors to monitor the status of the fuel oil flame. It converts analog current signals into switch signals and outputs them to the burner program controller, enabling precise monitoring of the flame.
Dual Detection: In burner applications, the LAE10 supports dual detection functionality, which simultaneously detects the main flame and the ignition flame, ensuring stability and safety during the combustion process.
Multi-Flame Monitoring: For equipment equipped with multiple burners, the LAE10 supports multi-flame monitoring functionality. The flame of each burner can be detected separately through one or multiple detectors, and the startup and detection of these burners can be centrally and simultaneously completed by the burner controller.
III. Technical Specifications
Main Voltage: AC220V~AC240V (±15%), or AC100V~AC110V (+10%).
Main Frequency: 50~60Hz (±6%).
External Fuse: 10A.
Power: 4.5VA.
Port Rated Current: 2A.
Protection Class: IP40.
Weight: Approximately 305g without the base.
Environmental Conditions: Both transportation and operating environments comply with IEC standards, with a temperature range of -20~+60ºC and humidity less than 95%.
IV. Use and Maintenance
Installation and Wiring: The installation of the LAE10 should follow the installation guidelines provided by Siemens, ensuring the device is secure and the wiring is correct. Special attention should be paid to the allowed length and specifications of the detector cables, and avoiding contact with high-temperature parts of the burner or combustion furnace.
Regular Maintenance: To ensure the long-term stable operation of the LAE10, regular maintenance and inspections should be performed. This includes cleaning the device, checking for loose or damaged wiring, and verifying the accuracy of the flame monitoring function.
Precautions: During use, care should be taken to avoid confusing the connection of phase lines and neutral wires to ensure the safe operation of the device. Additionally, the LAE10 must be stopped for maintenance at least once every 24 hours to meet equipment maintenance and safety requirements.
V. Application Fields
The LAE10 is widely used in various industrial boilers, burners, as well as in the petrochemical, food, metal processing, road construction machinery, glass and ceramics, coating, and other industries and equipment. Its precise flame monitoring and control functions provide strong support for the safe production and efficient operation of these industries.
In summary, the SIEMENS LAE10 Burner Program Controller is a powerful, advanced, safe, and reliable burner program controller. Its wide range of applications and excellent performance make it an indispensable and important device in the industrial sector.
