Flame Detection

Optical detectors that see the light signature of flames in high-risk industrial areas.

Flame Detection

Flame detectors react to infrared or ultraviolet radiation from fire and are used in fuel stores, generator halls, loading bays and factories. They respond fast over open areas where smoke would disperse. They need clear line of sight and careful selection for the type of fuel.

What we do

  • Hazard assessment and detector selection
  • Supply and installation of detectors on brackets
  • Cabling and integration with fire panel or suppression release
  • Field-of-view alignment and sensitivity setting
  • Test using a flame test source
  • Documentation

What we need from you to quote

  • Hazard type (petrol, diesel, gas, chemicals, paper)
  • Layout of the area and obstructions to line of sight
  • Indoor or outdoor exposure and sun reflections
  • Distance from detector positions to the risk
  • Existing fire or suppression systems to link
