HONEYWELL FS20X PLUS
Multipurpose Flame Detection
The Honeywell FS20X Plus flame detector responds to Hydrocarbon, non-Hydrocarbon, and Hydrogen fires with an increased range of detection while simplifying flame detection in a single device. Enhance your overall fire and gas safety by deploying reliable flame detection that can see better through rain, fog and smoke. The FS20X Plus can be used for a variety of demanding industrial applications, and can help businesses protect people, plants, and processes as part of an overall safety system.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- DIVERSITY OF DETECTION - Able to see a variety of Hydrocarbon, non-Hydrocarbon, and Hydrogen fires in a single device. No need to specify or stock a specialty flame detector.
- ALL-IN-ONE DEVICE - Communication options such as Modbus, HART® 7, Relays, and mA (source, sink, or isolated) are included as standard. Multiple, global certifications are listed on each device. No need for complex ordering codes or spare parts strategy.
- AT-A-GLANCE INSTRUMENT STATUS - FSX20 Plus has a high visibility LED Halo ring that can be seen from a distance to show instrument status.
- SIMPLIFIED INSTALLATION WITH ACCESSORIES INCLUDED - FS20X Plus includes the SM4 mount and enhanced SH-002 sunshade as standard, which enables easier mechanical installation and ordering. A marine version mount (SM4-M) is also available.
- SIMPLIFIED MAINTENANCE - FS20X Plus is supported by a PC App (FlameManager) and HART for set-up. FlameManager includes post event analysis with powerful Honeywell FirePic tool. The internal opto-electronics module can be quickly swapped in the field if needed.
DETECTING FLAMES, FROM A RANGE OF SOURCES
Honeywell FS20X Plus has one ultraviolet and three infrared sensor bands that monitor key wavelengths. Triple IR and especially the WideBand IR can see flames that become almost invisible to single or narrow band detectors during poor conditions, the UV protects against nuisance alarms and broadens the types of flaming fires detectable.
- Ultraviolet from 0.18 µm to 0.26 µm
- Near-band IR from 0.7 µm to 1.1 µm
- Wide-band IR from 0.7 µm to 4.2 µm
- Long-band IR from 3.0 µm to 5.0 µm
Without the need to rely on CO2 spikes like narrow band detectors todetect emerging flames, Honeywell FS20X Plus can monitor the bands that are most likely to see a fire.
ENGINEERED FOR RELIABLE FLAME DETECTION
Honeywell FS20X Plus has dual microprocessors to ensure robust, reliable flame detection. The first manages high-speed digital sampling and signal-processing. The second handles sensor data, communications and self-diagnostics — plus added memory for event logs.
