FGD FlameSpec-IR3-HD-CO2L Flame Detector
The FlameSpec-IR3-HD CO2L flame detector has been optimised to provide fast, robust detection for a wide range of heavy hydrocarbon fires,
where combustion exhaust gases may be present. The detector also provides a high-definition (HD) colour video output of the
monitored area with clear imaging of events and personnel up to 100 ft. (30m) allowing responders to know the exact situation before entering the
hazardous area. Video and data of events are stored saved quickly to nonvolatile memory for post incident investigation. The recordings start one
minute before detection and continue for up to four minutes.
Typical applications include:
• Aircraft hangars
• Hardened aircraft shelters
• Helipads (Onshore, Offshore, Hospitals)
• Areas with high vehicle activity:
– Waste recycling facilities
– Road / Rail tanker loading racks
Key Benefits: –
Highest immunity to false alarms
• Hydrocarbon flame detection. Three wavelengths, in the infrared spectral range of 4.0 to 5.0 μm, with clear separation.
• Each sensor has the same field of view to further improve false alarm immunity.
• HD, or composite, video output with automatic HD video recording of events.
• Ultra-fast detection within 40 milliseconds for fireballs or explosions.
• Detects up to 262 ft. (80m) for a 1 ft2 (0.1m2) n-heptane fire.
• 5 selectable sensitivity levels.
• Data/Event logger: Alarms, faults & videos are logged to non-volatile memory.
• Universal outputs, 3 and 4 wire, 4-20 mA sink / source, Fire, Auxiliary and Fault Relays. RS485 port using Modbus RTU.
• Built-in-Test (BIT) – Automatic and manual self-test of window cleanliness and overall detector operation.
• HART® 7, as standard – Easy configuration and diagnostic capability, including dirty optics warning for preventive maintenance needs.
• Window heater to avoid condensation and icing.
• Stainless steel tilt mount with horizontal and vertical adjustment.
• Marine approval – DNV type approval.
• Functional safety – SIL 2 capable.
