Flame and Beam Detectors - Uses and Benefits

Flame Detectors

For the response and detection of the fire or flame, the flame detector is designed. This is actually a sensor that allows flame detection. Flame detectors include alarm sounding and deactivating the fuel line such as, the natural gas or propane line and activate the system of fire suppression. When flame detectors are used in industrial furnaces, they provide confirmation about the proper working of the furnace. It is a fact that the flame detector responds more accurately and faster than a heat detector or smoke due to the mechanism of detecting the flame. 

·     Uses and Benefits

Flame detectors are used widely in boiler furnaces. According to the air movement or air temperature, flame detectors do the fire detection immediately. They are those optimal devices that respond immediately to the flame even less a second. Flame detectors allow the fire to get detected as early as possible before it goes out of the human hand and sends as much information as possible about the fire to those locations where help can easily be summoned. Flame detectors provide a high-speed response and are also immune to false alarms. Flame detectors such as UV detectors typically respond to metal fires, hydrogen, and hydrocarbon. Flame detectors are used to minimize all risks that have an association with combustion hence, utilized in many hazardous environments including drying systems, domestic heating systems, hydrogen stations, industrial heating, and industrial gas turbines.

Beam Detectors

Beam detectors refer to fire detection device that helps in the detection of the smoke by using infrared beams. The detector is used on one wall and a reflector is used on the opposite wall, this detector then shoots out the infrared beam at that area which is open mainly to the reflector. Beam detection has been seen as the best economical way for the protection of large areas and never loses the sensitivity along the detection. These detectors use the obscuration method that helps in the detection of fire due to the particles of smoke that obscured the light along the sensing path.

·     Uses and Benefits

The interesting thing to notice is that beam detectors are for internal use and seem to be the perfect solution for big as well as open area buildings such as shopping malls, school halls, libraries, and warehouses. Beam detectors can easily be put at the opposite room ends as compared to heat or smoke detectors. Beam detectors are quicker and easier to install mainly in large spaces and can easily be installed at bigger heights as compared to other detectors. The great life safety solution for indoor, open as well as large spaces is the beam detectors as they are easy to install and always offer protection in the high ceiling. Those beam detectors which are working with the low controllers make the equipment easy and safe to maintain and use. We are providing high-quality flame and beam detectors that work immediately without troubling you. You can easily make any changes accordingly and adjust as devices as per your requirements.
