TEMPERATURE RANGE—
Standard Model: –40°F to +167°F (–40°C to +75°C).
High Temperature Model:
–40°F to +257°F (–40°C to +125°C).
Storage:
–67°F to +185°F (–55°C to +85°C).
Turbine applications high temperature exposure limited
to 3 hour intervals.
HUMIDITY RANGE—
0 to 100% relative humidity.
SPECTRAL SENSITIVITY RANGE—
UV radiation over the wavelength range from 1850 to
2450 angstroms.
CONE OF VISION—
90 degrees, with highest sensitivity along the central
axis (gasoline, methane). See Figure 11.
FLAME SENSITIVITY—
The detector has 4 field adjustable sensitivity settings.
Refer to Table 5 for response characteristics when the
highest sensitivity level is selected.
RESPONSE TIME—
The detector is field selectable for a 0 to 7 second time
delay (in 1 second increments).
POWER ON TIME DELAY—
0.5 second.

Special conditions for safe use—
The detector contains capacitors that could be
a source of ignition if the enclosure is opened
inside the hazardous area. The enclosure must
not be opened, even if isolated when a
flammable atmosphere is present.
The cable must only be connected to the
enclosure by a flameproof cable entry device
certified to EN50 018. If only one cable entry
hole is used, the other hole must be closed by a
certified flameproof stopping plug.
The flame detector is available in two versions –
one for ambient temperatures up to +75°C and
one for temperatures up to +125°C. The
marking plate will show the actual allowed
ambient temperature.
