Optical Flame Detectors for Hydrogen – SpyglassTM SG50-F-IR3-H2
- SpyglassTM SG50-F-IR3-H2 flame detectors offer the fastest detection of fires and explosions, providing the opportunity to reduce or prevent damage to property & equipment.
- These flame detectors also have industry leading false alarm immunity to several challenging environments while performing in adverse climates.
- Small size and affordable costs along with state of the art features make SpyglassTM SG50-F-IR3-H2 a desirable tool for anyone concerned about fires in their facilities.
- SpyglassTM SG50-F-IR3-H2 is also available with the option to choose built in high definition video with SpyglassTM SG50-F-IR3-H2-V.
- SpyglassTM SG50-F-IR3-H2-V:
- Has fast and reliable detection with video confirmation and recording
- Has near-infrared and color (RGB) video options
- Allows remote monitoring of dangerous events
- Video capture allows after incident evaluation to determine:
- How the fire started
- How the fire progressed
- How fire suppression systems performed
- These flame detectors for hydrogen also comes with various accessories:
- Stainless steel weather cover
- 2″ & 3″ pole mount adapter
- Airshield for areas with high airborne contamination
- Paint shield / cover
- Flame Simulator (SP-F-SIM-IR3-H2): Flame simulators mimic the radiation and flicker of a real fire source in a handheld device which is certified intrinsically safe to ATEX standards.
