    The document discusses flame detectors and sensors. There are two main types of flame detectors - infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV), sometimes in combination. Flame detectors activate based on the flickering frequency of flames, which is above 25 Hz for UV and between 4-25 Hz for IR. The front window allows flames within a particular wavelength range, making positioning and angle important. Filters are used to allow the relevant wavelength ranges to the photoelectric cell, which detects light and converts it to an electrical signal. The signal is then amplified and passed to an alarm triggering circuit. Combining IR and UV elements makes some flame detectors very sensitive. Suggested locations for flame detectors include machinery engine rooms, boilers, fuel

    Hellooo FLAME DETECTORS/SENSORS

    LENS PHOTO
    AMP TRIGGER
    FILTER ELECT FOR
    CELL ALARM

    TIMER
    Aperture

    Two types of flame detectors INFRARED (IR) AND ULTRAVIOLET (UV) &
    sometimes a combination of both
    Flame detectors activate on the principle of wave length, in other words,
    FLICKERING FREQ. OF FLAME
    > 25Hz 4 – near 25Hz
    FRONT WINDOW :- Allows only flame within a particular range, hence
    positioning and angle very important

    FILTER : For IR it filters 4 – 25Hz flickering freq

    For UV, it filters > 25Hz Freq


    PHOTO ELECT CELL : Like any other Photo Elect Cell, it detects only light and
    converts it to an electricl signal
    AMP : Amplifies the signal and passes it on to the alarm triggering circuit.

    SOME FLAME DETECTORS HAVE COMBINED IR/UV ELEMENTS, MAKING


    THEM VERY SENSITIVE.
