Description
The Talentum flameproof triple Infra-Red (IR³) Flame Detector is designed to protect hazardous areas where open fi res may be expected and detects almost all flames, including hydrocarbon fi res with 4.3μm emissions through to invisible fi res such as hydrogen. The IR3 Flame Detector is sensitive to flickering, low frequency (1- 15Hz) infra-red radiation emitted by flames during combustion even if the lens is contaminated by a layer of oil, dust, water, vapour or ice. This detector has three IR sensors which respond to different IR wavelengths in order to discriminate between flames and spurious sources of radiation. False alarms from flickering sunlight are avoided by a combination of filters and signal processing techniques. The Talentum® IR3 detector has selectable output options of relay contacts or 4-20mA signal, as standard.
