Introduction
The FIK-UV-IR-HD flame detector provides ultra-fast response, high performance and reliable detection of a
large variety of fires including hydrocarbon fires (visible and non-visible), as well as hydrogen fires.
The detector addresses slow growing fires as well as fast eruptions of fire using improved UV-IR technology.
The detector operates in all weather and light conditions. The detector provides high-definition (HD) video
output of the monitored area with clear imaging of a fire event and of personnel at distances up to 100 ft
(30m) allowing rescuers to discover the exact situation before entering the hazardous area. It will
automatically record a video of a fire event (1 min pre-alarm/up to 3 mins post-alarm).
The integral HD quality video, with event recording, on top of the proven superior capabilities of UV-IR flame
detection together provide a very powerful safety tool to protect your personnel, plant and process.
This manual covers two UV/IR detector models:
1.
FIK-UV-IR-HD
: Hydrogen and hydrocarbons flame detection. Spectrum response of IR radiation in the
3.0-4.0-micron range.
2.
FIK-UV-IR-F-HD
: Hydrocarbon flame detection. Spectrum response of IR radiation in the 4.0-5.0-
micron range
