Technical Details:

Advanced Optical Sensing

The detector uses a combination of an ultraviolet (185-260nm) and two infrared (1.0-2.7µm) sensors. This multi-spectrum method ensures the detector can identify a wide range of flame types, from hydrocarbon fires to invisible flames, while rejecting false alarm sources.

Performance and Sensitivity

With a high sensitivity setting, the Talentum UV/IR2 flame detector can detect a 0.1m² n-heptane fire at a distance of 25 metres. The field of view is a 90° cone, ensuring broad coverage of the protected zone. Response speed and sensitivity are selectable to suit the application.

Built for Industrial Environments

The detector is housed in a rugged die-cast zinc alloy enclosure with a rating of IP65, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. It operates in temperatures from -10°C to +55°C and is engineered to withstand the demands of challenging industrial settings.

Your Questions, Answered

Find answers to common questions about the Talentum 16000 UV IR2 flame detector.

What types of fire can the Talentum UV/IR2 detect?

The Talentum UV/IR2 is designed to detect a wide range of fires, including those from hydrocarbon fuels (such as n-heptane), and flames and fires from methylated spirits. Its dual-sensor technology makes it a versatile flame detection solution.

How does the detector prevent false alarms?

The detector’s intelligent algorithm requires signals from both the UV and the dual IR sensors to be present simultaneously before triggering an alarm. This method provides the highest immunity to false alarms from sources such as solar radiation, arc welding, and lightning.

What are the power requirements for this flame detector?

The Talentum UV/IR2 operates on a supply voltage of 14 to 30 Vdc. The quiescent current is as low as 3mA, making it a low-power device suitable for a variety of fire and fault monitoring systems.

Is the Talentum UV/IR2 suitable for outdoor use?

Yes. The flame detector is built with a robust die-cast zinc alloy housing and has an IP65 rating, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations, including harsh industrial environments.

What approvals does the Talentum UV/IR2 hold?

The detector is certified to meet the requirements of EN54:10 and FM, ensuring it has been rigorously tested to internationally recognised standards for flame detection performance.
