The X3302 was developed for the detection of hydrogen flames, traditionally one of the more difficult flame types to “see.” When hydrogen detection is a need, consider the Det-Tronics X3302.
In addition to being certified SIL2-capable and performance-certified to FM 3260 for hydrogen fires, the X3302 is now FM Approved to detect methanol, methane and syngas fires, which contain a mixture of 53% hydrogen, 24% methane, 11% nitrogen, 8% carbon monoxide and 4% carbon dioxide.
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 and hydrocarbon flames, 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 (CO2) 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
