    This document provides information about the IR FLAME DETECTOR RIV-601P/F. It detects fires by sensing the infrared radiation emitted by flames. It can detect flames from up to 10 meters away, and its field of view is within a 90 degree cone. Unlike visible light detectors, it is not blinded by smoke and can detect fires even in smoky conditions. It distinguishes flames from other infrared sources like sunlight or lamps by tuning into the pulsing frequency of flames between 3-30 Hz.

    IR FLAME DETECTOR

    sources. For this reason the IR flame detector responds to the fire also when
    smoke is present.
    WHY IR (infrared) FLAME DETECTOR
    Eye is faster than nose. In the event of live fire the IR flame detector Flame radiation spectrum
    responds immediately. Its behaviour is similar to that of the eye. In
    fact it “sees” the radiation emitted by fire, and its sensitivity is inside a
    cone of 90° which is called the field of view. LIGHT
    The minimum flame size that can be detected by the RIV-601P/F
    varies with the distance. It doubles at double distance and is half at
    half distance. The sensitivity value is 2-3% of the distance.

    radiation intensity
    For example, at 10m the smallest detectable flame size is 20-30cm.

    Nevertheless direct exposition to the sunlight and lamps must be
    avoided, since it causes the detector to become blind or give false
    alarms.

    WHY IR (infrared) RADIATION


    The visible radiation emitted by fire is just a small amount of the
    emitted energy.
    The most part is comprised of invisible thermal infrared radiation,
    typically emitted by all hot bodies, with a wavelength varying with the
    body temperature.
