Important Notice Regarding 9060 Probe Option ‐ FIL‐3
WARNING: The only identifiable standard for flame arresters for general use is British Standard BS
EN 12874:2001. British Standard BS EN 12874:2001 refers to an operating environment up to 150
Degrees Centigrade.
The FIL‐3 device optionally fitted to 9060 Heated Zirconia Probes (the “Probes" or "Probe")
operate in an environment considerably greater than 150 Degrees Centigrade.
Therefore, we know of no Australian, British, European or USA standard applicable to flame
arresters or their testing above 150 degrees Centigrade. Consequently, the FIL‐3 device cannot be
certified as a safety device.
The probe is only on probes during the start up processes of a combustion appliance.
The Teledyne Analytical Instruments Burner Interlock Relay facility, which is a standard part of the
Teledyne Analytical Instruments transmitter, is designed to be wired to the main safety shut‐off
fuel valves in a way that can shutdown the probe heater when the fuel valves are closed.
The risk of ignition of flammable gas mixture at the hot end of the Probe can only be minimized by
correct use, maintenance and operation of the FIL‐3 device. The user of the FIL‐3 device is
responsible for verification and maintenance and correct use and operation of the FIL‐3 device.
THE USER AGREES THAT IT USES THE PROBE AND THE FIL‐3 DEVICE AT ITS SOLE RISK. TELEDYNE
ANALYTICAL INSTRUMENTS TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, GIVES NO WARRANTIES OR
ASSURANCES AND EXCLUDES ALL LIABILITY (INCLUDING LIABILITY FOR NEGLIGENCE) IN RELATION
TO THE PROBE AND THE FIL‐3 DEVICE.
The user must ensure that it correctly follows all instructions in relation to the Probe and FIL‐3
device, correctly understands the specifications of the Probe and FIL‐3 device and ensures that the
Probe and FIL‐3 device are regularly inspected and maintained.
FIL‐3 equipped Probes should be inspected at least once a year for corrosion and more frequently
if there is any reason to suspect that corrosion may have occurred.
