IPES-IR3 Flame Detector is based on triple spectrum infrared sensing technology. Providing, with a rapid response time of less than 5 seconds. IPES IR3 has an explosion proof certified enclosure. IPES IR3 is certified by international accreditation agencies for SIL-3 rating.
IPES IR3’s, advanced detection technology ensures rapid flame recognition and alarm signaling. In addition, IPES IR3’s selective, multi spectral technology virtually eliminates false alarms. It ignores false triggers from sources such as direct or indirect sunlight, arc welder flash, resistive heaters, fluorescent, halogen, and incandescent light
IPES IR3 sends an alarm only when data from three different IR wavelengths agree that a flame or fire is present in the field of view. Upon confirmation of flame or fire, the IPES IR3 transfers alarm signals to receiving control devices located in control and operations rooms and to fire alarms and burglar/fire alarm systems.
The unit comes standard with multiple outputs and you can choose to connect the detector via 4-20mA, RS485, HART or it can relay to your system for reliable communication.
For those applications where condensation may occur, an internal heater will activate to prevent any damage.
The IPES IR3 hydrogen flame detector is also able to detect hydrogen flames which are not visible to other single channel flame detection technologies. This makes it an ideal multispectral hydrogen flame detector of choice for industrial as well as commercial users.
