Features and Benefits
Our Patented WideBand IR Detection Technology for detecting
both
hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon
fires in industrial environmental conditions.
Uses the proven Quantum WideBand IR sensors as the highly successful Model FS7 Detectors, which
have over 25,000 successful installations in Semiconductor Cleanroom applications worldwide since 1996.
False Alarm Immunity due to the patented software signal processing algorithms and due to full WideBand
Spectrum sensor array with WideBand IR sensor wth twin Visible sensors, and twin NearBand IR sensors.
Twin highly integrated Microprocessors reduce the number of discrete components, provides larger
software algorithm programming and memory capacity, and provides redundant processor self-checking.
Lower price Detector replacement for Model FS7 applications.
Low power consumption, 24Vdc, 47mA nominal (1.13 W), 88mA max ALARM current (2.11 W).
Multiple Detector output options for a variety of industrial applications.
Up to 32 unique digital communication addresses when RS-485 communication is used.
Optional RS-485 output available (FireBus
II
protocol) for use with the FS2100X System CPX Din Rail
Panels and the FS7-130-SX Controller.
Digitally stepped 4-20mA (current sinking) output (optional).
Latching or non-latching mechanical (dry contacts) relay outputs (same reliable relays as used in the
Model FS7-2173-2RP Detectors).
Class
I
, Zone 2 polypropylene housing (sames as proven Model FS7 housing) for Clean Room,
Semiconductor Wet Bench and Wet Chemical applications.
Three Separate Bright LEDs (Red, Yellow, Blue) for quick, easy identification of ALARM, Fault and Normal
status for semiconductor clean room environments.
Our Windows® based PC Software for remote FSX diagnostics and data retrieval.
Designed, Manufactured, Tested, and Patented by Fire Sentry Corporation (30 years of proven fire / flame
detection product excellence worldwide).
