Product: Digital Profile

The DPD detector is a self contained detector with automatic UV or IR tuning capability. Input power and output flame signals are made through a rugged military style connector. In addition to the tuning from the key pad on the rear of the detector, tuning can be accomplished remotely through a computer connection.

Important Notice – DPD Obsolescence

THE PATENTED DIGITAL PROFILE DETECTOR (DPD) USES A MICROPROCESSOR TO continuously monitor the frequency and amplitude characteristics of a burner flame. Every flame has a unique profile – a digital fingerprint. The Digital Profile Detector constantly compares the real time flame image to the learned profile stored in its memory. The detector’s microprocessor uses sophisticated algorithms to precisely determine the flame’s on/off condition, allowing for reliable discrimination in a multi-burner environment.

Depending on customer needs, both the Super-Blue Digital Profile Detector (UV) and the Classic Digital Profile Detector (IR) are available. The Super-Blue features a super-blue silicon cell that is sensitive to radiation prevalent in gas flames and/or oil flames. The Classic incorporates a lead sulfide cell for infrared detection and is best suited for coal and/or oil flames. The automatic signal amplification circuitry and the use of multiple storage files allow each Digital Profile Detector to adapt to each application.
