Flame Detector FlameSpec IR3

Flame Detector FlameSpec IR3

The FlameSpec-IR3 flame detector provides ultra-fast response, high performance and reliable detection of all types of hydrocarbon fires (visible and non-visible). The detector addresses slow growing fires as well as fast eruption of fire using improved triple IR (IR3) technology. It operates in all weather and light conditions with highest immunity to false alarms.

  • Detection within 40 milliseconds of fireballs or explosions
  • Standard fire in only 1.3 seconds from 50 ft. (15m) and 3.7 seconds from 230 ft. (70m).

Add to that, the integral event recording, on top of the proven superior capabilities of Triple IR (IR3) flame detection and you have a very powerful safety tool to protect your personnel, plant and process.

FlameSpec-IR3 - Key Benefits

  • High immunity to false alarm.
  • Extreme sensitivity – up to 260 ft. (80m) for a 1 ft2 (0.1m2) n-heptane pan fire.
  • Ultra-fast detection mode – detection within 40 milliseconds for fireballs or explosions.
  • 1.3 seconds detection time – for 1 ft2 (0.1m2) n-heptane pan fire at up to 50 ft. (15m) distance.
