Multi-Spectrum Sensing Flame Detector is engineered for high-performance fire detection in hazardous and high-risk environments. Using advanced sensor technology, this flame detector identifies fuel and gas fires over long distances while offering unmatched false alarm immunity. It is ideal for oil and gas facilities, chemical plants, refineries, and industrial sites where early and accurate flame detection is essential.

Key Features of Multi-Spectrum Sensing Flame Detector

• Multi-Spectrum Design: Detects a wide range of fuel and gas fires at extended distances, ensuring fast and reliable response.
• Long-Range Detection:
  • Gasoline: up to 215 feet
  • Diesel: up to 150 feet
  • Methane: up to 150 feet
  These ranges are measured at the detector’s highest sensitivity setting for a 1 ft² pan fire.
• Field of View: Offers a wide monitoring area with 100˚ horizontal and 95˚ vertical coverage.
• Fast Response Time: Typically detects fires within 5 seconds, allowing for rapid reaction and suppression.
• High False Alarm Immunity: Filters out non-fire sources such as sunlight, welding, or lightning, minimizing false alerts.
• Multiple Sensitivity Settings: Features 4 programmable sensitivity ranges, which help avoid zone crossover and improve zone management.
• Built-In Testing: Includes both automatic and manual Built-In-Test (BIT) functionality to verify operation and integrity.
• Heated Optics: Prevents condensation and icing, enabling reliable operation in extreme weather conditions.
• User Programmable: Configure and calibrate using HART® or RS-485 interfaces.
• Durability Standards:
  • Meets MIL-STD-810C standards for humidity, salt fog, vibration, mechanical shock, and temperature extremes.
  • IP66 and IP67 rated for water and dust protection.
  • Complies with NFPA regulatory standards.
  • Hazardous area certifications: ATEX, IECEx, FM, and CSA.

Why Choose a Multi-Spectrum Flame Detector?

Unlike conventional flame detectors, the multi-spectrum flame detector uses several infrared and ultraviolet bands to differentiate between real fire events and false triggers. As a result, it offers superior accuracy, even in environments with high background noise or challenging visibility.

In addition, the detector’s heated optics and rugged housing ensure consistent performance in harsh outdoor conditions, such as offshore rigs, chemical storage facilities, and large refineries.

This flame detector is ideal for use in:

• Oil and gas processing plants
• Chemical manufacturing facilities
• Power generation sites
• Aircraft hangars
• Fuel loading terminals
• Refineries and petrochemical plants
• Mining operations
• Offshore drilling platforms
