Apollo Intelligent Marine IR3 Flame Detector - Stainless Steel (55000-034MAR)

The Apollo Marine Intelligent Stainless Steel IR³ Flame Detector is designed to protect areas where open flaming fires may be expected.

Operation

The Marine Intelligent IR³ Flame Detector is sensitive to lowfrequency, flickering infra-red (IR) radiation emitted by flames during combustion. Since it responds to flickering radiation the IR³ Flame Detector can operate even if the lens is contaminated by a layer of oil, dust, water-vapour or ice.

The Marine Intelligent IR³ Flame Detector is set to respond to low-frequency radiation at 1 to 15 Hz (1 to 2.7 �m) in order to detect all flickering flames including those invisible to the naked eye, e.g. those emitted by hydrogen fires.

This detector has a heavy duty, stainless steel housing which is highly resistant to corrosion. The housing has been electro-polished to give a natural silver finish and has no need to be painted, making it ideal for marine applications.
