FGD FlameSpec UV/IR Flame detector

FlameSpec-UV-IR flame detector providing ultra-fast response, high performance and reliable detection of a large variety of fires including hydrocarbon fires (visible and nonvisible), as well as Hydrogen fires. The detector addresses slow growing fires as well as fast eruptions of fire using improved UV IR technology. The detector operates in all weather and light conditions.

Features and Benefits

  • High immunity to false alarm
  • Ultra-fast detection mode – detection within 5 milliseconds for fireballs or explosions
  • Hydrogen and Hydrocarbon flame detection
  • High sensitivity mode – From up to 100ft.(30m) to 1ft2(0.1m2) n-heptane pan fire
  • Data/Event logger – alarm error, and other relevant events are logged to non-volatile memory
  • Built-in-Test(BIT) – Automatic and manual internal self-test of window cleanliness and the overall operation of the detector
  • Window heater to avoid condensation and icing
  • Stainless Steel Tilt mounting bracket can be connected either above or below the detector
  • Individual warning levels for UV and IR
  • ATEX/IECEx/FM/DNV certifications
  • SIL2 certified(Pending)
