Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides detailed information about the FL4000H Multi-Spectral Infrared (MSIR) Flame Detector by General Monitors, highlighting its advanced features, global service availability, and quality commitment.

Specifications and Features
The FL4000H is equipped with a multi-spectral IR sensor array and neural network technology, offering a maximum range of up to 230 feet and superior false alarm immunity. It includes continuous optical path monitoring (COPM) for reliability, a rapid response time of less than 10 seconds, and supports industry-standard 4-20 mA output signals. The device is housed in explosion-proof stainless steel, suitable for corrosive and marine environments.

Technology and Functionality
The detector uses multiple infrared sensors to sample different IR spectrum wavelengths. These signals are processed using a neural network classification algorithm to distinguish between flame and non-flame sources, significantly reducing false alarms. The device supports dual-redundant Modbus communications and can be linked to a host computer using the Modbus RTU protocol.

Cost Efficiency
The FL4000H's extended range and field of view reduce the number of detectors needed, lowering total installation costs while maintaining high safety standards.

Approvals and Certifications
The FL4000H is approved for CSA, FM, ATEX, IECEx, ULC, and has CE Marking. It is rated as SIL 3 Suitable and FM Certified to IEC 61508.

Applications
The detector is ideal for various industries, including automotive, aerospace, chemical plants, electric power, food/beverage, offshore platforms, oil/gas distribution and refineries, pharmaceuticals, textile manufacturing, warehouses, and wood/paper plants.

Global Service and Support
General Monitors offers 24-hour technical service and support worldwide, with facilities strategically located for efficient global support. The company is ISO 9001:2008 certified, emphasizing continuous process improvement in quality programs.
