Siemens 150242-70 Flame Detector

Technical specs, application notes, replacement checks, and related model references.

Product Overview

The Siemens 150242-70 is a reliable pressure monitoring device designed to ensure the safe operation of burner systems by verifying adequate gas and air pressures. It acts as a critical safety interlock, continuously sensing the system pressure and signaling the burner controller to initiate a lockout if hazardous conditions are detected. Widely applied in commercial and industrial boilers, the 150242-70 protects the system from operating under lean or rich fuel mixtures caused by pressure anomalies. Siemens pressure switches are known for their precision, durability, and essential role in complying with stringent combustion safety regulations.
