FDS 301

The FDS301 is an explosion proof visual flame detector. The device processes live video images to detect the characteristic properties of flames by means of its digital signal processing and hardcoded software algorithms.

List of Benefits

  • Visual flame detection principle
  • which ensures maximum false
  • alarm immunity.
  • Live colour video output.
  • Single sensitivity for ease of mapping and maximum coverage.
  • On-board Micro-SD card - pre/post alarm video recording.
  • Separate function test device – Flame Simulator 301 (FS301).
  • Advanced optical verification test.
  • Multiple Output Options for maximum flexibility and compatibility
  • User Programmable via HART or RS-485
  • Can operate stand alone with or without video.
  • Unrivaled MTBF – min 2,000,000 hours
  • Certified SIL 2 Capable (Exida)

 
Designed for hazardous industries where fast optical flame detection is critical and nuisance alarms are not an option.

The FDS301 is an explosion proof visual flame detector. The device processes live video images to detect the characteristic properties of flames by means of its digital signal processing and hardcoded software algorithms.

LIVE VIDEO
A live colour video image is available from each detector; this allows information about the protected area to be displayed on a monitor in the control room, providing the operator with a visual feedback of an event, which can reduce response time.

FALSE ALARM IMMUNITY
The FDS301 demonstrates superior false alarm immunity with live colour video direct from a specially designed optical detection device. It is the safest and most advanced flame detector on the market today, and its track record on the hundreds of installations where it is utilised has proven the instrument to be robust, even in the harshest of environments.

ON-BOARD MICRO SD CARD
The FDS301 incorporates a micro-SD card capable of recording a video of detected fires pre and post alarm. This recording is invaluable when carrying out an incident investigation and essentially by using the FDS301, there will never be an instance of an unknown alarm.
