FFE TALENTUM INTRINSICALLY SAFE TRIPLE IR FLAME DETECTOR, DIE-CAST ZINC ALLOY

The Talentum® Intrinsically Safe (IS) triple Infra-Red (IR³) Flame Detector is designed to protect areas where open fi res may be expected and detects almost all flames, including hydrocarbon fi res with 4.3 μm emissions through to invisible fires such as hydrogen.

The IR³ Flame Detector is sensitive to fl ickering, low frequency (1-15Hz) infra-red radiation emitted by fl ames 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 fi lters and signal processing techniques.

The Talentum® IR3 detector has selectable output options of relay contacts or 4-20mA signal, as standard.
