The ESA ESTRO B-V2 is a microprocessor-based burner control system designed for permanent operation in industrial combustion applications. It is available in 110V and 220V versions, and it complies with EN298 standards. The housing is made of thermosetting glass fiber, which provides durability in demanding environments. The system is designed for continuous duty, making it suitable for applications where the burner operates for extended periods. It is part of the ESTRO series, which includes the B, C, and Q variants, each offering different features such as IP ratings and supply voltage options. For specific technical details, refer to the product datasheet.

The ESA UV2 is a complete ultraviolet ignition system for gas-fired applications. It features a spectral response of 185–260 nm, which is sensitive to the UV radiation emitted by flames. The recommended operating voltage is 325±25V, with an ignition threshold of 280V and a maximum voltage of 400V. The cell has a peak current maximum of 30 mA and an average discharge current of 1 mA. It connects via a Ø 3/4" gas connection, making it suitable for integration into gas burner systems. The UV2 is designed to detect the presence of a flame by sensing UV radiation, providing reliable flame supervision for safety and control.

The ESA ECS driver card (e.g., SKU ESA12004) is an ignition system controller used in industrial combustion equipment. It supports fieldbus integration via RS-232/RS-422 interfaces, with a maximum ECS line length of 200 meters and a fieldbus voltage of up to 25 VDC. The card is rated IP10 and mounts on a 35 mm DIN rail (EN 50022), making it suitable for control-cabinet installation. It operates in temperatures from 0°C to 50°C and can be stored in temperatures from -10°C to 70°C. The driver card is designed to interface with ESA's burner control systems, enabling remote monitoring and control via fieldbus networks.

The ESA ESTRO series includes B, C, and Q variants, each designed for specific industrial combustion applications. The ESTRO B (including B-V2) is a standard exchange ignition system with IP54 protection, operating at 115 or 230 V with a frequency range of 45–65 Hz. The ESTRO C is a microprocessor burner control with a thermosetting glass-fiber housing, compliant with EN298 and EU directives. The ESTRO Q is an exchange standard system with isolation exceeding 50 MΩ, also accepting 115 or 230 V supply and consuming a maximum of 4 VA. All variants are designed for permanent operation, but they differ in housing material, protection degree, and specific electrical characteristics. Consult the datasheets for detailed comparisons.

The ESA Genio 230 V controller supports multiple flame detection methods, including UV cell, ionization electrode, or single electrode. It operates at a supply voltage of 115/230 Vac with a frequency range of 45–65 Hz. The controller has a fuse rating of 3.15 A and provides an output capacity of 3A @ 230V. It is housed in a thermoplastic material and has an IP40 protection rating. The operating temperature range is 0°C to 60°C. The probe voltage is rated at 280 Vac, making it suitable for various burner configurations. This flexibility allows plant engineers to select the most appropriate flame-sensing technology for their specific combustion process.

ESA ignition systems are available with various degrees of environmental protection, depending on the model. For example, the ESTRO B and Q variants have an IP54 rating, which provides protection against dust ingress and water splashes. The ESTRO C has a thermosetting glass-fiber housing, and while its IP rating is not explicitly listed in the provided data, it is designed for industrial environments. The ECS driver card has an IP10 rating, which offers protection against solid objects larger than 50 mm but no water protection. The Genio controller has an IP40 rating, protecting against solid objects larger than 1 mm and no water protection. These ratings help engineers select the appropriate system for their installation environment.
