Be sure to read and understand the entire
instruction manual before installing or operating
the flame detection system. Any deviation from
the recommendations in this manual may impair
system performance and compromise safety.

DESCRIPTION
The evolution continues with the new X9800 IR
Flame Detector. The X9800 meets the most stringent
requirements worldwide with advanced detection
capabilities and immunity to extraneous sources,
combined with a superior mechanical design. The
detector is equipped with both automatic and manual
oi test capability.
The X9800 with pulse/relay output is designed for use
in controller based systems. In addition to use in new
systems, it can serve as a direct field replacement
for Detector Electronics Corporation’s (Det-Tronics
®
)
controller based flame detectors that generate a pulse
output (not compatible with R7484 and R7409B/C).
When used as a field replacement, all operating features
of the current controller are retained in addition to gaining
the advanced features of the X9800 Flame Detector. In
typical applications, the four wire X9800 can utilize all
existing system wiring.
The detector has Division and Zone explosion-proof
ratings and is suitable for use in indoor and outdoor
applications. The X9800 housing is available in copper-
free aluminum or stainless steel, with NEMA/Type 4X and
IP66/IP67 rating.
A tri-color LED on the detector faceplate indicates
normal condition and notifies personnel of fire alarm or
fault conditions.
Microprocessor controlled heated optics increase
resistance to moisture and ice.
