Flame detectors
Flame detectors
As their name suggests, these detectors are capable of detecting flames. These detectors are suitable for places where there is a high probability of fire. In general, flame detectors are divided into two categories: ultraviolet and infrared detectors
UV Detectors
These detectors are able to detect fire by detecting ultraviolet light caused by fire. The performance of these detectors is very fast as they are able to detect flames or explosions in less than 4 milliseconds. Of course, to avoid possible errors in fire detection, these detectors are usually designed with a 3-second delay
Infrared detector (IR Detectors):
These detectors are based on the detection of heat emission caused by the flame. The detection speed of these detectors varies between 3 and 5 seconds. With the presence of hot objects in the environment, there is a possibility of incorrect detection by these detectors; Of course, this problem can be solved by determining the appropriate algorithms that are able to detect the flickering frequency of the flame.
