Spectrex SharpEye 40/40I Triple IR (IR3) Flame Detector
The Spectrex Sharpeye 40/40I is a triple IR flame detector. This unit uses a multi-spectrum IR detection medium which is ideal for detecting fuel and gas fires at long distances.
The 40/40I IR3 can detect a 1 ft2 (0.1m2) gasoline pan fire at 215 ft (65m) in less than 5 seconds. The 40/40I is the most durable and weather resistant flame detector currently on the market.
Its new features include a heated window, to eliminate condensation and icing; HART capabilities for digital communications; lower power requirements; and a compact, lighter design. Due to increased reliability, the 40/40 Series warranty period has been extended to 5 years and is SIL2 (TUV) approved to IEC 61508.
