In today&#8217;s post, we&#8217;ll be discussing more on flame sensors and what you need to know when using a flame sensor module for your Arduino!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Today&#8217;s guide will cover the following:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>How does a flame sensor work<\/li><li>The importance of flame sensor<\/li><li>How to easily clean a flame sensor<\/li><li>Which flame sensor module to use with Arduino<\/li><li>How to use a flame sensor with Arduino?

An example of how it looks like is shown above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Flame sensor working principle<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A Flame sensor works to regulate the flow of gas entering your furnace and automatically shutting the gas valve down if the furnace does not light up. The purpose behind such working principle is to prevent built-up gas or catastrophic explosions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Fire will conduct a small amount of current measured in microamps within the flame sensor<\/li><li>This signal will tell the processor that there&#8217;s a flame present in the pilot and allow the main gas valve to open<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why is flame sensor important and how to clean it?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/media.safebee.com\/assets\/images\/2015\/4\/furnace-fire.jpg.838x0_q67_crop-smart.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"371\" height=\"247\"\/><figcaption><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/gallery-533572p1.html\">Furnace <\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier we understood the principle of flame sensors but why is it important? Well, do you want to prevent an explosion or other furnace disasters? Clean the flame sensor to avoid malfunctioning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Knowing when your flame sensor turns bad:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you start cleaning your flame sensor, you&#8217;ll first need to know if there&#8217;s a requirement to do so. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hence, you should either clean or replace it when you observe either one of the following sign about your flame sensor:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Cracked porcelain on the flame sensor<\/li><li>Sooty or corroded flame sensor<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Here&#8217;s how you can clean a flame sensor with the following steps<\/strong>:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Turn off any electrical power and gas to your furnace <\/li><li>Close the gas valve<\/li><li>Locate your flame sensor; tend to be mounted outside of the burner assembly with a single wire attached<\/li><li>Slowly remove the flame sensor <\/li><li>Use an emery cloth with a fine grit to clean away soot and corrosion <\/li><li>Once a polished surface is seen, reinstall the flame sensor <\/li><li>Restart the furnace<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For more on cleaning and troubleshooting a flame sensor, do refer to the following video:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"How To Clean a Flame Sensor - Furnace Troubleshooting\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OR-F-ui5BdE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>Video Demonstration by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC-Z9UcrgFzJIg49LtJFc_kg\">Benjamin Sahlstrom<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"background-color:#f6fff3;color:#000000\" class=\"has-text-color has-background\">Do note that if your flame sensor is not thoroughly cleaned, carbon materials or oxidation can build up in the sensor, increasing chances of furnace malfunctioning and even explosions to occur!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Types of flame sensor<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ultraviolet Flame Sensor:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Ultraviolet or UV in short, work by detecting UV radiation that&#8217;s instantly emitted once a source is ignited <\/li><li>Capable of high sensing speed and reliability; Sensing is done within 3-4 milliseconds but maintains reliability through a 2-3 seconds delay to detect false alarms <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Infrared&nbsp;Flame Sensor:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Affordable and reliable technology used to monitor flames in the infrared spectral band <\/li><li>The light emitted from a heat source is optically seen by the sensor and amplified, sending a signal to a control circuit<\/li><li>Such sensors tend to be found in<a href=\"https:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/blog\/2019\/11\/25\/mlx90640-thermal-imaging-cameras-for-your-microcontroller\/\"> thermal imaging cameras<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Thermocouple:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/blog\/2019\/12\/25\/types-of-thermocouple-and-which-thermocouple-sensor-to-buy\/\">thermocouple<\/a> is a sensor made of two pieces of metal used to measure temperature.
