The device is an Ultraviolet-only flame detector designed to detect
fires and provide alarm outputs directly from the detector while
maintaining false alarm immunity. It detects in the ultraviolet
(UV) spectral range for optimized speed of response.
It is fast and capable to detecting the ultraviolet (UV) rays
emitted by a burning substance and is used in high hazard
applications such as petrochemical plants, munitions factories and
other areas where flammable or explosive liquids or solids are
handled or stored.
The flame sensor adopts an ultraviolet photosensitive tube, with
qualities of highly sensitive, reliable, dust-resistant, corrosion
proof and moisture-resistant, therefore is not sensitive in
sunlight, dust, oil, tolerance of fume, and humidity. Set in a
standard calibration to detect a flames at a distance of *5 meters,
which flame created by 2Kg ethanol in a Container of Base
*3cmX*3cm, Height 5cm.
