All permits and proper site procedure and practises must be
followed and the equipment must be isolated from the power
supply before opening the enclosure in the field.
Field of View
The sensor can detect fi res of 0.1m
respond to visible fl ames within the fi eld of view. Hence the detector will not to certain common sources of false alarms
such as refl ected fl are radiation. This also reduces the likelihood of cross-propagation of alarms caused by fi res or
combustion products of fi res burning out with the fi eld of view.
The detectors should be aligned to view the intended hazard taking into account any obstruction and congestion.
Software analysis of the actual detector coverage may be required to ensure adequate coverage of the hazards. This
analysis can also be used to optimise the number of detectors and the loop confi guration.
Visual Flame Detector does not have a traditional cone of vision like other IR fl ame detector's. The detector's fi eld of
view is a rectangular pyramidal shape and represents a radial projection of the detector's rectangular sensing element.
