SS4 Series Optical Flame Detectors
The SS4 Series of Electro-Optical Flame Detectors offers advanced UV, IR, and visible spectrum flame detection technology designed to ensure fast, reliable fire detection in high-risk industrial environments. With thousands of successful installations worldwide, the SS4-A, SS4-AS, and SS4-AUV models each deliver specialized detection capabilities tailored to various flame types. These flame detectors utilize multi-spectrum sensing, combining ultraviolet (UV), visible light, and Wide Band Infrared™ (IR) technologies to accurately identify and respond to the presence of flaming fires. The detectors are engineered for dependable performance even in harsh conditions, minimizing false alarms through advanced signal processing algorithms.
The SS4-A model employs FireLogic signal processing to evaluate UV, visible, and IR radiation simultaneously, ensuring accurate flame detection while significantly reducing the likelihood of nuisance false alarms. The SS4-AS detector is specifically optimized for hydrocarbon and gas fire detection, including hydrogen, methane, ethanol, and methanol. It processes inputs from solar-blind UV, “Quantum-Effect” IR, and visible sensors to detect Class A, B, and C fires. For applications requiring sensitive UV-based detection, the SS4-AUV offers specialized technology that focuses solely on the ultraviolet spectrum, providing precise response to UV radiation from flaming sources. Together, the SS4 Series supports critical safety systems across oil and gas, chemical processing, and other combustible-prone industries.
