SharpEye 20/20SI-1

20/20SI Triple IR (IR3) Flame Detector The SharpEye Model 20/20SI is a new version of the Triple IR Spectrum Flame Detector designed to provide maximum fire protection. The optical sensors and filters have been carefully selected to ensure the greatest degree of spectral matching to the radiant energy emissions of fire, and the lowest degree of matching to non-fire stimuli. The patented Triple IR (IR3) circuit design scans for oscillating IR radiation (1 to 10 Hz) in the spectral bands ranging from 4.0 to 5.0 microns. This highly advanced detector uses programmable algorithms which check the ratio and correlation of data received by the three sensors. This version of the IR3 has a sealed electronics & sensor section to ensure protection from the environment during installation. The microprocessor design allows for unique field programmability not found in similar detectors, making the 20/20SI highly immune to false alarms. The detector has applications in a wide range of industrial and commercial facilities, where the threat of accidental fire involves hydrocarbon fuels, such as gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, aviation jet fuels like JP-4, JP-5, JP-8, hydraulic fluids, paints and solvents, hydrocarbon gases like ethylene and polyethylene, natural gas (LNG), town gas, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), methane, ethane, propane, etc. The patented Triple IR design offers two to three times the detection distance of any conventional IR or UV/IR detector. Main Features • Triple Spectrum Design • Sensitivity Selection • User Programmable Configuration • Highly Immune to False Alarms • Automatic and Manual Built-In Test (BIT) • Standard 4-wire Connection • 4-20mA sink or source (3-4 wires) configuration • RS-485 Modbus Compatible • MTBF Minimum 100,000 Hours • 3-Year Warranty • FM, ATEX and Gost K Approved Applications • Aircraft Hangars - landing gear pits, under-wing and over-wing protection • Automotive - manufacturing, paint spray booths • Chemical Industry - production, storage, transportation • Pharmaceutical Industry • Power Generation Facilities - pump areas, generator rooms, unmanned stations, gas-fired and coal-fired reactors • Explosives & Munitions - handling and storage • Printing Industry - solvent handling, presses, drying processes • Oil & Gas - exploration, production, storage and offloading • Tank Farms - floating-roof and fixed-roof tank areas • Offshore Platforms - fixed rigs and floating vessels FPSO • Warehouses - storage facilities for flammable materials • Onshore - refineries, loading terminals, pipelines • Waste Disposal Facilities - incineration, processing and storage of flammable waste materials (solids, liquids, gases) • Paint - manufacturing facilities • Petrochemicals - production, storage, shipping facilities 218 Little Falls Road | Cedar Grove | NJ 07009 | USA Tel: +1 (973) 239-8398 | 1 (800) 452-2107 (Toll free US only) | Fax: +1 (973) 239-7614 E-mail: [email protected] | Web-site: www.spectrex-inc.com
