FAQs

What is a Flame Supervision Device (FSD)?

A Flame Supervision Device (FSD) is a safety mechanism that monitors the presence of a flame in a gas appliance. If the flame goes out, it automatically shuts off the gas supply to prevent dangerous gas leaks.

Is the Uci 20/s 7989B suitable for residential use?

No, this device is specifically designed for the rigorous demands of commercial catering equipment like tandoors and wok ranges. It is not intended for residential appliances.

What is the main difference between this model and the PEL21S?

The primary difference is that the 20/s 7989B does not require or support a pilot connection, making it suitable for direct ignition systems or appliances where a pilot light is not part of the design.

Can I install this myself?

Installation of any gas control device should only be performed by a qualified and certified gas technician or engineer to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.

How often should this device be inspected?

Regular professional inspection is recommended, typically as part of routine maintenance for commercial cooking equipment, to ensure continued optimal performance and safety.

What type of appliances is this FSD typically used with?

This FSD is commonly used with high-demand commercial cooking appliances such as tandoor ovens and wok ranges that utilize gas burners.

Troubleshooting

Device not responding or engaging

Ensure the gas supply is turned on and the appliance is correctly connected. Verify electrical connections if applicable to the overall system. A qualified technician should inspect for blockages or internal faults.

Intermittent flame failure warnings

Check for obstructions around the flame sensor. Ensure proper gas pressure and adequate air supply for combustion. Professional inspection is recommended to rule out device malfunction.
