Spectrex SharpEye 40/40UFL Ultra Fast UV/IR Flame Detector

High-Speed Optical Flame detector designed to meet two major requirements:

• High-Speed Response: 20 msec
• High Reliability: Immunity to false alarms

This detector is based on the well-known military detector used in Armored Vehicle Explosion Suppression Systems, combined with the industrial detector 40/40LB.

It can detect hydrocarbon-based fuel and gas fires, hydroxyl and hydrogen fires, as well as metal and inorganic fires. The UV/IR flame detector senses radiant energy in the short-wave section of both the ultraviolet and infrared portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The signals from both sensors are analysed for frequency, intensity and duration. Simultaneous detection of radiant energy in both the UV and IR sensors triggers an alarm signal.

The UV sensor incorporates a special logic circuit that helps prevent false alarms caused by solar radiation.
