FlameGard 5 UV/IR

The FlameGard 5 UV/IR detects fires by monitoring in both the ultraviolet and infrared (UV & IR) spectral ranges, making it highly immune to false alarms caused by lightning, arc welding, hot objects and other sources of radiation.

The electronics of the FlameGard 5 UV/IR detector is housed in an aluminium
explosion-proof enclosure (Stainless Steel optional).

The Modbus and HART outputs provide alarm status, fault and other information for operating, troubleshooting or programming the unit. HART enables this feature without the need for rewiring.

 

Features and Benefits

  • Wide field of view enables greater fire detection coverage
  • Event logging stores fault and alarm history
  • 4–20 mA stepped output is the industry standard for remote alarm and fault indication
  • Modbus and HART user interface provides complete status and control capability in the control room
  • Wide operating temperature range permits operation at higher ambient temperature
  • Continuous Optical Path Monitoring (COPM) checks the optical path integrity and the detector’s electronic circuitry once every minute
  • Three SPDT high-current programmable relay outputs provide immediate and timedelayed relay outputs for alarm, warning and fault conditions
