Abstract

See full text

A gas powered appliance includes a main burner for burning gas, a flame sensor assembly, and a controller. The flames sensor assembly includes a probe positioned proximate the main burner to couple an electric current to the main burner through a flame on the main burner, a flame detector circuit providing a digital signal indicating presence or absence of the flame on the main burner based on the electric current, and a flame strength circuit receiving a voltage on a component of the flame detector circuit and outputting an analog signal based on the voltage. The controller is connected to the flame sensor assembly and programmed to control the main burner to receive the digital signal from the flame detector circuit, receive the analog signal from the flame strength circuit, and determine, based on the analog signal from the flame strength circuit, a strength of the flame.
