IH153ES - IR EMBER DETECTOR

fladet IH-153ES Infra Red Ember Detector with IP-67

Protection is used to detect smoldering moving embers. The

detector makes use of Infra Red sensitive photoelectric sensor

for detection of ember (as in smoldering coal). It has a spectral

filter of 3 - 14µm, which is insensitive to visible light.

The IR Ember Detector can reliably and quickly detect weak

Infra Red radiations emitted from ember due to smoldering

fragment of wood or coal. IR Ember Detector is an efficient

alternative to any flame detector which has the limitation of

low sensitivity to ember.

IH 153ES - IR EMBER DETECTOR
It can be connected to any standard conventional Fire Alarm

Control Panel or to any addressable Fire Alarm Control Panel.

ADVANTAGES:
It can also be connected to Annunciator/PLC/DCS through the í Rugged model suitable to be used in challenging

potential free ‘NO/NC’ contacts provided. In-built RED LED is
also provided for visual indication in case of fire/ember
detection. Normal working of the detector can be ensured by
environment with weather and dust proof protection.
