Electrical connection notes for flame supervision 
 
•  It is important to minimize electrical disturbance and signal loss. 
•  Run flame signal wiring separate from all other wiring 
•  Observe the length of detector cable as indicated above 
•  The flame rod does not provide protection from electric shock  
•  Locate the ignition electrode(s) and flame rod such that the ignition spark cannot arc  to the 
flame rod (risk of electrical overload and damage to flame supervision circuit) 
•  When using the QRA..., grounding of terminal 22 is required 
•  Multiple UV sensors QRA... and/or flame rods can be connected in parallel 
•  If separate flame sensors are used for pilot and main flame  supervision,  
  an interrupted pilot must be utilized
