FlameSpec UV-IR & UV-IR-HD Flame Detectors

The FlameSpec-UV-IR flame detector provides ultra-fast response, high performance and reliable detection of a large variety of fires including hydrocarbon fires (visible and nonvisible), as well as hydrogen and methane/hydrogen mixed 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.

The HD version provides a high-definition (HD) color video output of the monitored area with clear imaging of fire events and personnel at distances up to 100 ft. (30m) allowing responders to know the exact situation before entering the hazardous area.
Video and data of events are quickly stored to non-volatile memory. The recordings start one minute before detection and continue for up to four minutes, the event video can be used for post incident investigation.

The series features:
• High immunity to false alarm
• Hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon flame detection.
• High sensitivity – up to 100 ft. (30m) for a 1 ft sq (0.1m2) n-heptane pan fire.
• Ultra-fast detection mode detection within 5 milliseconds for fireballs or explosions
• High speed (<0.5s) model [X5] available for compliance with NFPA 33.
• Universal outputs, 3 and 4 wire, 4-20 mA sink / source, Fire, Auxiliary and Fault Relays. RS485 port using Modbus RTU.
• Event logger – alarms, faults and other relevant events are logged to non-volatile memory
• Built-in-Test (BIT) – Automatic and manual self-test of window cleanliness and overall detector operation.
• Dirty optics warning for preventive maintenance needs.
• HART® 7, for configuration & maintenance - option available.
• Window heater to avoid condensation and icing.
• Stainless steel tilt mount with horizontal and vertical adjustment.
• SIL 2 compliant - option available.
• Detect high UV (sparks and arcs) or IR levels via auxiliary relay and 4-20mA.
