Talentum® 16000
IR2 Flame Detector
Your Challenge:
Protecting Your Site Without Costly Disruptions
Your challenge is protecting a high-risk area where conventional detectors are unreliable.
False alarms from sources like sunlight, welding, or lightning cause costly downtime and reduce trust in your safety systems.
You need a solution that can intelligently distinguish a real fire from false stimuli, every time.
The Talentum IR2 flame detector solves this by using advanced flame-sensing technology to accurately identify real flames
while rejecting false alarm sources.

Technical Details:
Advanced Dual-IR Sensing Technology
The Talentum 16000 IR2 detects the infrared (IR) radiation emitted during combustion. The detector analyses the signals from both sensors, looking for the specific flicker frequency and spectral signature that characterises a genuine flame. This dual-sensor approach ensures the detector can distinguish between a real fire and misleading radiation sources, providing a reliable and accurate early warning system.
Broad Fuel Source Detection
A key advantage of this specialist detection method is its ability to identify flames from a wide variety of fuel sources. This includes hydrocarbon fires, such as those involving oil and gas, as well as inorganic fires. Because it does not rely on smoke to trigger an alarm, the Talentum IR2 flame detector is perfectly suited for open areas or environments with high airflow, where smoke may be dispersed before it can reach a smoke detector.
Built for Industrial Environments
Built for durability, the detector is housed in a robust enclosure ensuring protection against dust and water ingress in demanding industrial conditions. Its low power consumption and versatile output options, including conventional 2-wire, 4-20mA, and relay contacts, allow for seamless integration into both existing fire alarm systems and process control networks, making it a flexible solution for specialist flame detection.
