Robust and safe

Industrial flame detector IFC 50

UV flame detector for harsh industrial environments in non-continuous operation. The IFx series features a robust die-cast aluminum housing with IP65 protection. The housing design allows for quick replacement of the unit on site.

  • Compact and robust
  • Die-cast aluminium housing
  • Protection class IP65
  • Relay output with 1 NC contact and 1 NO contact
  • quick exchange on site possible

The IFC 50 is a compact UV flame detector specially designed for use in industrial firing systems. It provides one galvanically isolated NC contact and one galvanically isolated NO contact with high switching capacity. This makes the IFC 50 suitable for multi-flame monitoring with ambient light control. In accordance with EN 298:2012-11, the IFC 50 flame detector is intended for automatic burner control systems that check whether a flame signal is still present after a control shutdown.
The UV tube used ensures that background radiation, e.g. from glowing brick linings or mixing equipment parts, is not detected.

The internal increase of the UV tube voltage immediately after applying the supply voltage ensures the safety requirement according to EN 298:2012-11 for checking the UV tube for ignition for intermittent burner operation.

By means of the diopter, which also serves as the flame detector's interface to the combustion chamber, the IFC 50 can be adapted to special requirements with various accessories.
The flame intensity can be easily recognised via an LED as a visual indicator. A simple diagnosis of the flame intensity is thus possible directly at the firing device.

    It comes together what belongs together - Merger of the BST Solutions GmbH with BFI Automation Mindermann GmbH

    Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

    Already in July 2021 BFI Automation Mindermann GmbH and BST Solutions GmbH have jointly created the brand name FLAMONITEC® in order to increase awareness especially outside Europe.

    Hereby, we want to express our core competence in short form: Flame Monitoring Technology. And this in the entire bandwidth.

    Since 2004, BST Solutions GmbH has been active in the field of flame monitoring for original equipment manufacturers of heating technology and industrial firing equipment. For this BST Solutions GmbH uses the experience and patents of BFI Automation Mindermann GmbH, which has been active in the field of flame monitoring for power plants, petrochemical plants and gas turbines since 1973.

    These experiences have encouraged us to cooperate more closely also economically. On 31.05.2023 BFI Automation Mindermann GmbH has taken over all shares of BST Solutions GmbH retroactively to 01.01.2023.

    Both companies merge to form BFI Automation Mindermann GmbH.

    Through this merger, all business activities will be transferred to BFI Automation Mindermann GmbH with immediate effect. As part of this change, you can expect a seamless transition in our day-to-day business. Our dedicated team members will continue to serve you with the same level of professionalism, efficiency and attention to detail.

    We are confident that this change will help us serve you even better and provide you with even greater value in the flame monitoring field.

    Please do not hesitate to contact us personally for further information.
