The flame detectors respond to light 
emitted from flames during combustion. 
 The detectors discriminate between flames 
and other light sources by responding only 
to low frequency flickering produced by 
flames (typically 1 to 15Hz). The detectors 
ignore fixed light sources and rapidly 
flickering illumination predominantly 
produced by lighting.  
 The flame flicker techniques have the 
advantage of still allowing the detection of 
flames through a thin layer of oil, water 
vapour, ice or dust. This makes these 
detectors particularly useful in industrial 
applications.

technical data are published in the products
