Product Overview

The Siemens LFS1.1 Flame Sensor & Detector is a high-reliability flame safeguard designed for oil-fired industrial burners used in boilers, furnaces, and process heating equipment. It provides continuous monitoring of burner flame conditions and ensures safe burner operation by detecting the presence or absence of flame during burner operation.

The LFS1.1 uses a RAR9 photocell flame detector, specifically designed for monitoring yellow oil flames in industrial combustion systems. This detector continuously supervises the flame signal and sends feedback to the burner control system, allowing immediate shutdown in case of flame failure.

Designed for industrial safety applications, the LFS1 series flame safeguard units can be integrated with Siemens burner control systems such as LEC1, LME39, or programmable logic controllers (PLC). This makes it suitable for OEM burner manufacturers and combustion control systems used in large industrial installations.

The compact and robust design allows reliable operation in demanding industrial environments, and the system supports advanced diagnostics including flame signal monitoring through a 0–10 V analog output signal.

Technical Description

The Siemens LFS1.1 Flame Sensor & Detector is a flame safeguard unit designed for the supervision of oil flames in industrial combustion systems. It operates using a RAR9 photocell flame detector, which is optimized for detecting yellow oil burner flames in continuous operation.

The flame safeguard unit monitors burner flame conditions and transmits a flame signal to the burner control system. If flame loss occurs, the system initiates a shutdown sequence to maintain safe burner operation.

The LFS1.1 is typically used in combination with Siemens burner controls such as LEC1, LME series controllers, or programmable logic controllers, enabling integration into modern industrial combustion management systems.

The system also provides analog flame signal output (0–10 V) and LED status indicators for diagnostics and monitoring during burner operation.
