Crowcon SharpEye 40/40I Triple IR (IR3) Flame Detector

SKU
40/40I

Please Note: This product is now end of life. For an alternative, please see the Crowcon FGard IR3 Flame Detector.

The Crowcon 40/40I Triple IR (IR3) Flame Detector detects fuel and gas fires at long distances with the highest immunity to false alarms. The 40/40I IR3 can detect a 1ft2 (0.1m2) gasoline pan fire at 215 ft (65m) in less than 5 seconds. The 40/40I is the most durable and weather resistant flame detector currently on the market. Its new features include a heated window, to eliminate condensation and icing; HART capabilities for digital communications; lower power requirements; and a compact, lighter design. Due to increased reliability, the 40/40 Series warranty period has been extended to 5 years and is SIL2 (TUV) approved to IEC 61508.

Key Features:

  • Triple Spectrum Design - for long distance detection and high false alarm immunity
  • Sensitivity Selection - to ensure no zone crossover detection
  • Automatic and Manual Built-In-Test (BIT) - to assure continued reliable operation
  • Heated window - for operation in harsh weather conditions (snow, ice, condensation)
  • Multiple output options for maximum flexibility and compatibility
    - Relays (3) for Alarm, Fault and Auxiliary
    - 0-20mA (stepped)
    - HART Protocol for maintenance and asset management
    - RS-485, Modbus Compatible
  • High Reliability - MTBF - minimum 150,000 hours
  • Approved to Safety Integrity Level 2 (SIL2 – TUV)
  • 5-Year Warranty
  • User Programmable via HART or RS-485
  • Ex approved for Zone 1 hazardous area location
