my experience has been with the red, green and blue

red=fireeye

green=eclipe

blue= honeywell

honeywell has the lion share, but fireeye never seems to fail

You first need to understand the control loop (sensor, controller and final control element).

See Lessons In Industrial Instrumentation', By Tony R. Kuphaldt:

It is a large book which contains total 1082 pages. I found it very informative for the control system. The real control system starts from Chapter 5, Page 166.

There is one important thing to note for the gas burner. The air to gas ratio has to be controlled for the optimal burning. There shall be also a flame detector to confirm the presence of the flame.
