Det-Tronics X3302 Multispectrum IR Flame Detector - Manual (Page 3)

1 95-8576 9.2
IMPORTANT
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.
ATTENTION
The X3302 includes the Automatic oi ® (Optical
Integrity) feature — a calibrated performance test
that is automatically performed once per minute
to verify complete detector operation capabilities.
Testing with an external test lamp is not
approved or required.
DESCRIPTION
The X3302 brings state-of-the-art IR flame detection to
the difficult task of detecting invisible hydrogen flames.
Focusing on the water-band IR emissions of hydrogen
flame, the X3302 overcomes the limited detection range
and false alarm tendencies of other flame detectors by
employing field proven multispectrum infrared (MIR)
technology. The result is unsurpassed flame sensitivity
with discrimination of non-flame sources in situations
where traditional flame detectors are unsuitable.
Utilizing the X3301’s multi-patented signal processing
algorithms, the X3302 provides a breakthrough in flame
detection/surveillance of hazardous materials that
produce mostly water vapor, and little or no Carbon
Dioxide (CO
2
) in the combustion process. The detection
capability of the X3302 is double that of traditional UV
and UVIR detectors. At the same time, it attains solar
resistance and insensitivity to artificial lights, lightning,
and “blackbody” radiation, which still plague other
detection technologies.
The detector has Division and Zone explosion-proof
ratings and is suitable for use in indoor and outdoor
applications.
The standard output configuration includes fire, fault
and auxiliary relays. Output options include:
– 0 to 20 mA output (in addition to the three relays)
– Pulse output for compatibility with existing Detector
Electronics Corporation (Det-Tronics ® ) controller
based systems (with fire and fault relays)
– Eagle Quantum Premier ® (EQP) compatible model
(no analog or relay outputs)
– HART communication
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.
The X3302 housing is available in copper-free
aluminum or stainless steel, with NEMA/Type 4X and
IP66/IP67 rating.
