Fike IR3 Flame Detector

Fike IR3 Flame Detector

The Fike IR3 flame 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.

Features

• 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

• Data/Event logger – alarms, faults and other relevant events are logged to non-volatile memory

• Built-in-Test (BIT) – Automatic and manual self-test of window cleanliness and the overall operation of the detector

• Window heater to avoid condensation and icing

• Tilt mounting bracket can be connected either above or below the detector.
