Det-Tronics Flame and Gas Detection Technologies

FLAME DETECTION

Detector Electronics’ flame detectors are solutions for applications in which risk to personnel is high and where fire might result in a large loss of equipment. Beyond critical life-safety concerns, our products have proven to minimize total cost of ownership while minimizing false alarms.

Our industrial and commercial applications include oil and gas pipelines, turbine enclosures, off-shore platforms, Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels, automotive-manufacturing facilities, aircraft hangers, nuclear facilities, hydrogen-filling stations, and munitions plants.

Bottom line: no other company offers more flame-detection technologies with wider area coverage, higher false-alarm immunity, reduced response times, and the appropriate global approvals. And to improve ease of use, all X-Series flame detectors have HART-protocol options.

 

MULTISPECTRUM IR

The Protect.IR X3301 and X3302 are the latest advancements in optical flame detectors. Designed to detect hydrocarbon or nonhydrocarbon fires, advanced signal processing techniques are utilized to maintain alarm capabilities with modulated blackbody and other false alarm sources present.

Features include increased range, sensitivity, coverage and false alarm rejection. Automatic optical integrity ensures reliability with a minimum of maintenance. Approved to FM 3260/2000. Can be installed as Class 1 Division 1, EEx de or EEx d.

Applications:

  • Automotive
  • Compressors
  • FPSO
  • Hydrogen Stations
  • Hydrogen compressor skids
  • Offshore platforms
  • Solvent/chemical storage
  • Tank farms
  • Turbines

 

ULTRAVIOLET/INFRARED

X5200 UVIR detectors are particularly suited for applications where hydrocarbon fires are likely and UV radiation sources may be present. They maintain constant fire protection while arc welding takes place.

Signals from both UV and IR sensors are processed to produce a fire alarm when both sensors detect a fire, resulting in good false alarm rejection capability.

Applications:

  • Aircraft hangars
  • Loading Racks
  • Powder coating

 

DUAL SPECTRUM® IR

Dual Spectrum® models feature dual wavelength IR flame detection technology, for maximum reliability and a new level of false alarm rejection.

PM-5MPX is for semiconductor fabrication tools and facilities. PM-9SBE is a fiber optically coupled IR detector.

Applications:

  • Electrostatic painting
  • Gas cabinets
  • Hydrogen
  • Metal fab
  • Semiconductor
  • Solvent/chemical storage

 

SINGLE FREQUENCY IR

X9800 single frequency IR detectors use signal processing TDSA and narrow frequency bandpass filter to detect radiation characteristics of hydrocarbon fires. The detector is completely solar insensitive.

IR detectors are suited for applications where high pressure hydrocarbon fires are likely to ccur and high concentrations of oil or airborne contaminants may be present.

Applications:

  • Automotive Powder coating
  • FPSO
  • Offshore platform
  • Pipelines

 

ULTRAVIOLET

X2200 UV detectors utilize a high speed, maximum sensitivity tube. Virtually all fires emit radiation in this band. The products’ unique design renders the UV detector solar blind.

Detectors are very flexible, general purpose indoor optical fire detection devices. They are fast, reliable and respond to most fires. UV detectors are available with Arc rejection for transient UV signal rejection.

Applications:

  • Battery rooms
  • High temperature locations
  • Munitions
  • Powder coating

RETROFIT READY
