Working in areas with combustible gases, vapours or materials requires fire/flame detection as a life-saving necessity. The best solutions must combine state-of-the-art technology with rugged durability and be ready to reliably work in any situation. Dräger offers a wide variety of high-quality flame-detectors that fulfil these requirements.

Benefits

Combined Explosion and High Sensitivity Flame Detector

• The Dräger Flame 2370 is a highspeed UV/IR optical flame detector, which was created to quickly and effectively meet two main requirements: High speed response (20 msec to a flash fire) and high reliability with limited susceptability to false alarms.

Count On An Expert

• The flame detector senses radiant energy in the short wave section of both the ultraviolet and infrared portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The signals from both sensors are then analysed for frequency, intensity and duration. The simultaneous detection of radiant energy in both the UV and IR sensors then triggers the alarm.

All-Weather Capable

• The Flame 2370 comes with features designed to withstand all kinds of weather and temperature fluctuations. This includes a heated window against snow, ice and condensation, a rugged, compact outer housing and a MTBF minimum of 150,000 hours.

Automatic and manual optics checks (BIT)

• Automatic checks of the detector electronics and optics helps ensure that no fault goes undetected. Additionally the test can be triggered manually at any time.

Reliability

• Functional safety is a concept applicable across all industry sectors. It is fundamental to enabling complex technology used for safety-related systems. It provides assurance that the safetyrelated systems will offer necessary risk reduction. The Dräger Flame 2370 is highly reliable and complies with the IEC 61508 Safety Integrity Requirements of SIL2.

Easily visible status LED

• A tri-colored LED which is visible at the front of the detector provides a simple status indication to personnel in close proximity to the detector. Green indicates normal operation; yellow indicates a fault and red indicates the presence of radiation from a fire.

Simple installation and commissioning

• Installation is simple! The detector is easily installed with a stainless steel tilt mount whichenables the detector to be rotated up to 60° in all directions to position the detector in relation to the potential fire source.
