FS24X Flame Detector

Sophisticated software algorithms and dual microprocessors ensure that the FS24X has the highest fire detection performance combined with optimal false alarm rejection.Product Overview:The FS24X is the latest generation high technology Multi-Spectrum Triple IR (IR/IR/IR/Visible) Flame Detector, which is part of our FSX family of advanced technology Electro-Optical fire detectors. Using our patented* WideBand IR™, WideBand 4.3 micron IR™, and Visible detection technology, the FS24X is a quantum leap in flame detection. Sophisticated software algorithms and dual microprocessors ensure that the FS24X has the highest fire detection performance combined with optimal false alarm rejection.The WideBand IR™ Infrared technology using high-speed solid-state Quantum sensors allows detection of all types of fires, hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon, in all weather conditions. If the detector’s signal is blocked by ordinary window glass, the patented WideBand IR sensors will still alarm to the fire but at a reduced sensitivity and slower response time.Dual microprocessors provide a high level of fail-safe operation combined with fast and reliable performance. The Master Microprocessor performs high-speed digital sampling and signal-processing calculations: while the slave microprocessor handles various sensor data, performs communications, self-diagnostics and provides interface versatility: and additional memory for storing Event Log and FirePic™ data.The FSX family of detectors feature our patented* FirePic data storage and information retrieval facility. FirePic™ records pre-fire data, which can be recovered from the Detector’s non-volatile flash memory for post fire analysis and postulation of the fire cause. Additionally, unique Real-Time Graphing (RTG™) allows viewing of the data that the Detector actually sees. A combination of outputs makes the FS24X a truly versatile detector for today’s demanding industrial requirements.The FS24X Flame Detector has a detection range greater than 200 feet (Very High Sensitivity setting) for the detection of a one square-foot Heptane reference fire and has a cone of vision far greater in volumetric coverage than any other Multi-Spectrum IR Detector. This means fewer detectors can be used as compared to other manufacturers’ detectors.Additional Features and Benefits:Features • Patented* WideBand IR™ Technology • Patented* Electronic Frequency Analysis™ • Visible Sensor for optimum false alarm rejection • Selectable detection sensitivities • Field-of-View: 110° full 100% cone-of-vision (90° full 100% cone-of-vision model also available) • Dual microprocessors for reliable performance • Real-time clock for accurate time dating of events • FirePic™ — pre-fire event data storage • Event log with date and time stamp • RS-485 ModBus communication • Non-Isolated 4-20 mA Analog output (sink or source) • Alarm, Fault and Fire Verification relays • Automatic optical path and electronic self-test • Widest operating temperature range • Patented* Electronics Module for components protection with easy plug-in terminations and field installation • Two ¾” NPT OR 25mm conduit entries • Low power consumption • High RFI and EMI immunity • FM, ATEX, CE mark approvals • Meets SIL 2 requirementsBenefits • Detects hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon fuel fires in all environmental conditions • User selectable outputs • Optimal false alarm rejection for all environmental conditions • Minimal maintenance for trouble-free operation • PC software and Interface Module (FSIM) for fault diagnostics, real-time graphics (RTGs), and downloading of FirePics™ and event log • Suitable for a wide variety of applications • Easy electronics module replacement • Test lamps for manual testing.Features & Benefits: • Detects hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon fuel fires in all environmental conditions • User selection outputs • Optimal false alarm rejection Quick Specs: • Sensitivity: Very high, high, medium and low - switch selectable • Operating voltage: 24 VDC nominal (18-32 VDC) - regulated • Humidity range: 5 to 98% relative humidity, non-condensingFire and Gas Consultancy Services
