Ciqurix FC-EXFP-106 FCam ExFP ATEX Flame Detection Camera - 6mm

Ciqurix FC-EXFP-106 FCam ExFP ATEX Flame Detection Camera - 6mm

FCam ExFP is the CORE version of the FCam EX flame detection camera, and uses the Ciqurix QLS protocol. It has an integral cable tail and connection box with cable entry gland and punchdown termination, designed specifically to facilitate simple installation using fire-resistant data cabling. It is powered via the QLS data cable by a battery-backed power supply in the CORE Control Hub or Extension Hub.

All Ciqurix FCam cameras use Dual Lens Technology to detect flame at an early stage. Visual analytics onboard the camera continually analyse the live video feed seeking flame. The analytics look at the colour, brightness, shape, flicker, movement and edge behaviour of potential flame, and compares this with previous images to spot developing fire.

At the same time, a separate high definition near-infrared video sensor provides an infrared video stream to a separate analytics engine, also onboard the camera. This operates in a specific spectrum associated with flame, and again is looking for brightness, shape, flicker, movement and edge behaviour over time.

Only when an incident looks like fire visually and looks like fire in the infrared spectrum does the FCam signal an alarm condition. This allows the FCam to be extremely sensitive to fire and yet reject almost all false alarms.

The FCam knows what flame looks like in the dark, through smoke, and in fog – and can intelligently place more emphasis on the infrared feed in these conditions.
