FLADET IH-153E Infra-Red Ember Detector

The IP67 rated model IH-153E Ember Detector employs Infra-red sensitive photoelectric sensors for the detection of glowing embers on applications such as COAL CONVEYORS. The unit has a narrow spectral sensitivity (3 to 5 um) making it impervious to visible light. The detector can reliably and rapidly detect weak Infra-Red radiation emissions from embers resulting from smouldering fragments of wood or coal. The sensitivity of the IH-153E, being designed and constructed specifically for the detection of glowing embers, is far superior to more "conventional" flame detectors. With Instrument air air purging at 3 to 7 bar used to keep the detector "eye" clean in polluted environments.

The IH-153E will detect 100 sq cms glowing ember at a distance of 1 to 3 metres in a 90 degree cone angle and straight line.

Connection of the IH-153E to any standard Fire Alarm Control Panel, annunciator, PLC, DCS is by way of the potential free NO/NC contacts provided. Operating Status indication of the detector is by LED's (flickering green = normal condition, static red = alarm).
