FGD FlameSpec IR3 H2 flame detector
FlameSpec-IR3-H2 flame detector provides ultra-fast response, high performance, and reliable detection of hydrogen fires. It operates in all weather and light conditions with the highest immunity to false alarms. These features, along with the built-in event logger, provide additional means to study the cause and development of fire events for "lesson learned" reviews.
Features and Benefits
- High immunity to false alarm
- Ultra-fast detection mode detection within 40 milliseconds for Hydrogen fireballs or explosions Hydrogen flame detection
- High sensitivity – up to 100 ft. (30m)
- Data/Event logger – alarms, faults 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
- ATEX/IECEx/FM/DNV certifications
- SIL2 certification
