SharpEye optical flame detector - UV/IR, IR3 & IR4 detector
Based on the optical analysis technology, the SharpEye 40/40 flame detector is sensitive to the radiation emitted by flames and combustion products. Depending on the model, it can be fitted with one or more sensors, either UV or IR or a combination of both.
With a 150,000 hours MTBF (average time between failures), the SharpEye optical flame detector quickly detects and reports all fuel and gas fires at very long distance with a less than 5 seconds response time in the worst case. Detailed description
SharpEye 40/40I optical flame detector - IR3 flame detector
This is the most commonly used model in the petrochemical industry and oil rigs. This flame detector combines 3 infrared sensors for hydrocarbons fire detection up to 65 meters away, while guaranteeing reliability and immunity. Marine approval.
SharpEye 40/40LB optical flame detector - UV / IR flame detector
This detector combines a UV sensor and an IR sensor for detection of hydrocarbon (petrol, ethanol, diesel, methane), metal and hydrogen fires detection. Good resistance to sunlight, artificial light and radiation from welding operations.
SharpEye 40/40M optical flame detector - IR4 flame detector
Combination of 4 infrared sensors for flame detection from most fires over distances up 5 to 65 meters maximum, with high immunity to false alarms. Version with the same characteristics as IR3 with the addition of hydrogen detection.
