Fire detection – Flame 3000

 

Draeger Safety UK says its new Dräger Flame 3000 explosion-proof image-processing flame detector helps keep workers protected round the clock. 
 
Designed for standalone operation, it can also be integrated with a control system or fire panel, offering what the company describes as a reliable solution to flame detection and a high level of false-alarm immunity.
 
The chemical industry encompasses a wide array of diverse processes and applications, and, as a result, the Flame 3000 can work alongside Dräger’s entire range of flame-detection equipment to create a bespoke solution for every client. According to Dräger, this approach is driven by the application, and takes into consideration substance, surrounding environment and processes, fire type (hydrocarbon or non-hydrocarbon) and size. 
 
Both the Flame 3000 and existing Flame 5000 are said to be suitable for use in hazardous environments, such as refineries and chemical plants, because the sensitivity is not affected by reflections. Impervious to CO2 emissions, along with hot gases and equipment, the flame-detection system can be installed in any industrial situation where a potential fire source exists, adds the company.
 
Chris Baldwin, product manager, Draeger Fire & Gas Systems, said: “In the chemical and petrochemical industries there is no room for error. Our flame-detection solutions are designed to mitigate against false alarms, with sophisticated technology that warns you only when there is a real incident to deal with, thus saving precious time and money.
