摘要： A control system for controlling an oil or gas burner heating system comprises an ultraviolet flame sensor. Flame is detected and preanalyzed by the control for flame quality factors reflecting the degree of drift from optimal operating conditions including the average flame intensity, and the peak intensity frequencies. Other sensors detect other drift indications including exhaust-gas-stack temperature. A modem can automatically transmit data to a remote computer used by fuel providers and service personnel or upon a call request from the personnel to the control. Software installed in the remote computer calculates the next fuel delivery date and next servicing date based on data transmitted from the control system and from the service personnel.

摘要： A breakerless magneto ignition system for an internal combustion engine, having an inherent speed limiting feature is disclosed. The ignition system includes an ignition coil with primary and secondary windings, a drive winding and a trigger winding. A first solid state switch is placed in circuit with the primary winding for controlling current flow through the primary winding, the drive winding controlling the solid state switch to render it conductive to allow current flow through the primary winding, and the trigger winding and an associated switching circuit subsequently shunting the input to the first solid state switch to render it nonconductive, to block current flow through the primary coil and induce an ignition spark voltage in the secondary winding. The primary winding, secondary winding and drive winding are mounted on the same magnetic frame adjacent a magnet-containing flywheel, and the trigger coil is mounted on the lower edge of the secondary winding in close proximity to the flywheel. The primary winding current generates a field that interacts with the trigger winding to produce a premature pulse which increases in magnitude to prematurely activate the first solid state switch at a high engine RPM, at a point in the engine cycle at which there is insufficient current flow in the primary coil to produce an effective ignition spark voltage.

摘要： Disclosed is an electronic control system for controlling the operation of an oil burner heating system. The control system comprises a relay circuit having first and second relays. When the relays are closed, an external power source is connected to an igniter and motor. The control system also comprises a relay contact monitor configured to detect whether the relays contacts are welded. The control system also comprises a relay control circuit adapted to energize the relays in response to the call for heat from the thermostat and a signal from the relay contact monitor indicative that the relay contacts are not welded. The relays are configured such that only one relay will open or close with power across its contacts. The control system further comprises an improved flame sense monitor adapted to quickly output signals indicative of flame or no flame when such conditions are present with sensitivity hysteresis and a feature to adjust such hysteresis.

摘要： Electronic control system for an oil burner has a primary direct current power source controlled by a thermostat and a secondary direct current power source independent of the thermostat. A first relay is in circuit with the oil burner motor to energize the same and a second relay is in series with the first and with an alternating voltage source for energizing the ignitor of the furnace. An electronic circuit controls the first relay switch and includes a pair of silicon controlled rectifiers (SCR's) connected in series for energizing the first relay. A second electronic circuit includes a pair of interconnected NPN transistors for controlling the operation of the second relay switch. The first NPN transistor is conductive when the second relay switch is energized and the second NPN transistor is connected to the first to turn "OFF" the same in response to flame being sensed in the furnace. A flame sensing element in the furnace is associated with a control relay for controlling a pair of relay switches, one of which is in series with the SCR's and the other is adapted to energize a redundant pair of time-delay circuits. Each time-delay circuit includes a capacitor and a programmable unijunction transistor (PUT) programmed to breakover at a voltage which is a function of a first predetermined time for charging a capacitor and a resistance in the cathode circuit of each PUT which provides for a second predetermined time for the discharge of the capacitor voltage to hold the second relay "OPEN" by conduction through the second NPN transistor. Another electronic circuit includes an NPN transistor and PNP transistor connected to energize the first relay switch.

摘要： A magneto ignition system having inherent means for providing operating biases for components thereof at temperature extremes is disclosed. The disclosed ignition system includes an ignition coil (10) having primary and secondary coil (12, 14) a solid state or semiconductor switch (24) being connected across the primary coil (12) for switching the current therein, and drive and trigger coils (20, 34). The semiconductor switch (24) is driven toward a nonconductive state, to cause an ignition impulse in the secondary coil, by semiconductor latching device (32) which shunts the signal from the drive coil (20) to ground (38). The semiconductor latching device (32) is activated by a trigger coil (34), having a separate magnetic flux path.In order to provide reliable switching at extremes of ambient temperature, means (22) responsive to the common magnetic field of the primary coil, the secondary coil, and the drive coil are provided to effectively provide operating bias to the latching device (32). In the illustrated embodiment, the means responsive to the magnetic field are paths on a printed circuit board (52, 52a) interconnecting the coils and components of the magneto ignition system. When the magnetic field begins to collapse in response to a trigger pulse, this collapsing magnetic field generates a voltage to insure that the latching device (32) reliably changes to a conductive state, and that the switch device (24) reliably changes to a fully nonconductive state, either by decreasing the effective impedance of the electrical path through the latching device (32) or by increasing the effective impedance of the electrical path to the semiconductor switch device (24).
