Types of Flame Detectors
Whether you're protecting a manufacturing plant or an offshore oil rig, there is a Talentum flame detector engineered for your needs. Explore our core product series.
Talentum Standard & I.S. Range
Ideal for a broad range of indoor and outdoor industrial applications, offering robust performance and high false alarm immunity. Intrinsically Safe (I.S.) versions are available for use in specified hazardous areas where a lower power or cabled solution is needed.
Projected Beam Smoke Detectors
Projected Optical Beam Smoke Detectors use separate Transmitter and Receiver units installed at opposite ends of the protected area, up to 100 metres apart, with the Receiver connected to a ground-level Control Unit. This configuration is less affected by stray reflections, allowing reliable operation in narrower or more complex environments. Compact and architecturally adaptable, these detectors are well-suited to spaces where aesthetics and precision matter.
