76-M-6010-02-02 1. Introduction The F-Guard-UV-IR-HD flame detector provides ultra-fast response, high performance and reliable detection of a large variety of fires including hydrocarbon fires (visible and non-visible), as well as hydrogen fires. The detector addresses slow growing fires as well as fast eruptions of fire using improved UV-IR technology.
BIT (Built-In-Test) in which the sensors and window cleanliness are tested. Any detected fault is indicated as shown in Table 4 (in section 4). During “Dirty Window” fault the detection sensitivity is significantly reduced, while “Fault” refers to critical faults which totally prevent flame detection.

NTSC or PAL format, depending on the “Video analog output” setting Modbus Address The detector can communicate with the Gastech communicator software using a Modbus RTU compatible protocol on RS-485. This protocol allows for a network of detectors to be connected, each with a unique Modbus address.
76-M-6010-02-02 4. Operation The F-Guard-UV-IR-HD is a UV-IR flame detector that includes a built-in high-definition video camera module. The video module automatically records video of alarm events, and can provide live video of the detection zone to a screen in the control room.
3– Closed when “Aux Relay” set to “IR Detected”. 4– Closed when “Aux Relay” set to “UV Detected”. 5 – 16mA when “Enable Pre-Alarm 0-20mA” enabled. 4mA when “Enable Pre-Alarm 0-20mA” disabled. 6– Closed when “Aux Relay” set to “pre-alarm”. For more information & technical support: info@gastech.com...
The BIT process runs automatically at startup and periodically during the operation of the detector. The BIT can also be initiated manually by connecting the “Manual BIT” terminal and the “24 VDC (-) “terminal for one second (see Table 1) or by using the Gastech communicator software (connected through RS-485).
