C7061A1012 | Honeywell Dynamic Self-Checking Ultraviolet Flame Detector, 120 VAC, NEMA 4

Honeywell · PLCs & Industrial Controllers

Description  The Honeywell C7061A1012 is a dynamic self-checking ultraviolet (UV) flame detector designed for continuous monitoring of gas and oil flames in commercial and industrial burner applications. When used with the R7861 Dynamic Self-Check Amplifier, this detector provides highly reliable flame supervision by sensing the UV radiation emitted during fuel combustion. Its self-checking mechanism — an oscillating shutter system — continuously verifies sensor integrity to ensure safe operation in critical burner management systems. Built for durability and performance, the C7061A1012 features a rugged NEMA 4–rated housing, making it suitable for harsh environments.     Technical Specifications  Condition New/Never Used Surplus Brand Honeywell Category Sensors & Switches Subcategory Sensor Controller Part Number C7061A1012 Product Type Ultraviolet Flame Detector Detection Type Dynamic Self-Checking (Purple Peeper) Compatible Amplifier R7861 Dynamic Self-Check Amplifier Operating Voltage 120 VAC Application Gas-fired and oil-fired burners Sensor Element UV Sensing Tube (field-replaceable) Checking Mechanism Oscillating shutter with internal motor Mounting 3/4-inch threaded conduit fitting Lead Wire Length 96 in (2.4 m) color-coded lead wires NEMA Rating NEMA 4 (IP66 equivalent) Viewing Window Pressure Rating 20 psi (1.4 bar) Operating Temperature Range –40°F to +175°F (–40°C to +79°C) Housing Material Cast aluminum with heat-blocking flange Shutter Drive Synchronous motor Orientation Any angle – vertical, horizontal, or intermediate Flame Detection Principle UV radiation sensing Replacement Components UV tube and quartz viewing window Parallel Operation Two detectors can be wired together for redundancy Approvals UL Recognized, CSA Certified Dimensions Approx. 6.5 in × 4 in × 4 in Weight 3.00 lb (1.36 kg)     Information About C7061A1012 The C7061A1012 is part of Honeywell’s “Purple Peeper” flame detector line, a trusted series of sensors that offer dynamic self-checking technology for improved flame safety. Designed for use with Honeywell 7800 Series flame safeguard controls, this detector combines UV sensing accuracy with mechanical and electronic reliability. Its integrated heat-blocking flange allows operation near high-temperature combustion zones, while color-coded 96-inch lead wires simplify installation. The replaceable UV sensing tube and quartz window reduce maintenance downtime and extend service life. Two detectors can be connected in parallel to improve flame detection coverage and reduce nuisance trips in challenging sighting conditions. Key Features: Dynamic Self-Checking System: Incorporates an oscillating shutter that periodically blocks UV radiation to test the sensor and ensure flame detector integrity. Universal Mounting Orientation: Can be mounted horizontally, vertically, or at any intermediate angle for flexible installation. High Durability: Rugged NEMA 4–rated housing with a quartz viewing window rated for 20 psi ensures protection in demanding environments. Wide Temperature Range: Operates reliably from –40°F to +175°F (–40°C to +79°C), ideal for both indoor and outdoor burner systems. Field-Serviceable Components: UV sensing tube and quartz window are field-replaceable, minimizing downtime. Parallel Detector Capability: Two units may be wired together to enhance stability and reduce false shutdowns in complex flame sighting setups. Precision Alignment: Built-in reference points ensure proper faceplate positioning and shutter mechanism operation. Protective Heat Block: Integrated into the mounting flange to shield internal components from excessive heat. Compatibility: Designed for use with R7861 Dynamic Self-Check Amplifiers and Honeywell 7800 Series Flame Safeguard Controls. High Reliability in Flame Supervision: Ideal for gas-fired and oil-fired burners, industrial furnaces, and large commercial boilers. The C7061A1012 offers unmatched safety, longevity, and performance in critical combustion monitoring applications.
