Applications:

• An explosion suppression system component installed on ductwork and piping connected to bucket conveyors, filters, tanks and other processing equipment types. It provides instant detection of the ignition of an explosion
• Identification of ignition sources, including flames or localized glowing spots or flame in processing lines, piping and ductwork for triggering the protection system
• Fast detection of explosion propagation within the ductwork for triggering the protection system
• For application in indoor spaces without access of direct daylight

Specifications:

• The IR-13 infra-red detector is intended for detection of sparks and flames in closed piping and ductwork;
• The IR detector monitors the entire cross-sectional diameter of the duct or pipe with three optical fibres laid out in 120° intervals;
• In-duct operating temperature: 250˚C maximum;
• Response time in single milliseconds;
• Programmable as fire or spark detector (by adjusting the response sensitivity);
• Optical detection array operating temperature range: -20°C to +250°C;
• Protection type: II ½ D T 80C IP 65, II 1/3G Eex II T5;
• ATEX-compliant design.
