Designed for standalone
operation, the new Draeger
Flame 3000 is an explosionproof
flame detector. Suitable
for use in fuel transport
terminals, it is not affected by
sunlight and, in traffic tunnels,
is impervious to headlights,
flashing lights and hot
engines.

The advanced image
processing detector is also
suitable for use in rail loading
areas as the sensitivity remains
unaffected by moving
reflections, In addition, an
automatic shutdown system
can be used to extinguish all
fuel type fires.

The Draeger Flame 3000
has a rectangular, pyramid
shaped field of view.

Representing a
radial
projection of
the sensing
element, it
extends to
110° horizontal
and 80° vertical,
with an
increased range
of 60m to an n-Helptane
0.1m2 pan fire.

Housed within a single unit
and approved to ATEX,
IECEx and FM, the detector
combines digital signal
processing with software
algorithms to process and
interpret the characteristics of
a flame.

The image processing
algorithms are so
discriminating that the
detector is immune to false
alarms. Requiring only one
detection sensitivity setting, it
is unaffected by background
radiation.
