FS10-R Flame Detector

A high-speed microprocessor based fire detection and process control system specially designed for liquid and powder coating applications, the Fire Sentry FS System 10™ quickly detects the presence of a flame, reacts by initiating a shutdown of the electrostatic finishing process in a matter of milliseconds; and effectively interrupts the fire before residues and wet paint films can ignite.

The Fire Sentry FS System 10 is the only system that provides a two-stage
response: an ALERT for spray gun “fireball” type fires and if the fire continues, a FIRE ALARM is declared in 4-5 seconds.

In normal operation, the continuous spectral data stream of information from the sensor array is analyzed by the microprocessor. With two distinct relay outputs, the Fire Sentry FS10-R Unitized provides an ALERT output for spray gun “fireball” type fires, and if the fire continues FIRE ALARM is declared in 4-5 seconds.

The detector stores all the pre-fire spectral data from the sensor array in non-volatile memory for retrieval and evaluation. The Fire Sentry FS10-R stores the last six FirePic™ events, each 8 seconds long; and 200 event histories with time and date stamp. The FirePic data can then be used to postulate the cause of the fire.
