FlameSpec-IR3-HD Triple IR Flame Detector with HD Video

The FlameSpec-IR3-HD represents the next generation in flame detection technology.

Designed for high-risk and high-value industries, this detector offers ultra-fast response times and integrates high-definition (HD) video capabilities. It ensures rapid detection of hydrocarbon fires, enabling swift preventive actions to minimise potential damages.

Key Benefits

Ultra-Fast Detection: Detects fireballs or explosions within 40 milliseconds.
Extended Detection Range: Identifies a 1ft² (0.1m²) n-heptane pan fire in:
- 2.2 secs at up to 98 ft (30m)
- 9.0 secs at up to 262 ft (80m)
HD Video Monitoring: Provides clear imaging of fire events and personnel up to 100 ft. (30m), enhancing situational awareness.
Event Recording: Automatically records video of fire events, capturing 1 minute pre-alarm and up to 3 minutes post-alarm initiation.
High False Alarm Immunity: Operates effectively in all weather and light conditions, minimizing false alarms.
Built-in Test (BIT): Features automatic and manual self-tests to ensure operational integrity.
Window Heater: Prevents condensation and icing, maintaining clear optics.
Data/Event Logging: Logs alarms, faults, and other relevant events to non-volatile memory for post-incident analysis.
