Nero Industries’ UV-IR CONTROL DETECTOR ensures fast, precise flame detection using UV and IR sensors, enhancing safety across military platforms during critical missions.
UV-IR control detectors are used to detect fires due to the emission of light at specific wavelengths from gases, smoke, and vapors that occur during a fire. These detectors help trigger the fire alarm by detecting UV (ultraviolet) and IR (infrared) radiation in the environment.
During a fire, gases and smoke in the atmosphere can emit UV and IR radiation. UV-IR control detectors detect these wavelengths and help intervene in the early stages of the fire by triggering the alarm system.
In summary, UV-IR control detectors are a type of optical sensor used in fire detection systems. They detect light emissions at specific wavelengths from gases, smoke, and vapors that occur during a fire, triggering the fire alarm.
Detectors have been specially designed as IP67 and can stay under 1 meters of water for half an hour. The detectors also having protection for false alarms, do not react against false alarms such as sunlight, vehicle headlights, welding beam, infrared heater, cigarette ash. Along with these systems protecting the engine and the crew on military armoured vehicles, electric vehicles, buses, planes, jet planes and ships; total 40 thousand detector accomplish their duty in the field.
UV-IR control detectors are commonly used in the fire industry, particularly in fire detection systems. These systems are designed to detect a potential fire early on in order to quickly respond and prevent it.
UV-IR control detectors help trigger the fire alarm by detecting light emissions at specific wavelengths from gases, smoke, and vapors in the atmosphere. This allows for early detection of the fire, enabling prompt action to be taken and reducing the risk of loss of life or property damage.
UV-IR control detectors are also used in industrial fire protection systems, particularly in areas affected by radiation such as petrochemical facilities, storage areas, ships, power plants, and other industrial facilities.
UV-IR control detectors play a critical role in the fire protection industry, serving as a key tool for early detection and prevention of fires.
UV-IR control detectors are available in different types and functions. Here are some types of UV-IR control detectors:
Dual spectrum detectors: These detectors can detect both ultraviolet (UV) radiation and infrared (IR) radiation.
Single spectrum detectors: These detectors can only detect either UV or IR radiation.
Linear detectors: These detectors scan a specific area for fire detection. Linear detectors that can scan large areas are used in areas such as long corridors where fires may occur.
Point detectors: These detectors detect UV-IR radiation from specific points for fire detection. They are especially used in small areas and inside rooms.
Spark detectors: These UV-IR control detectors are used in large industrial environments and are designed to detect materials at risk of ignition.
Radiation detectors: These detectors are used in areas affected by radiation and can be used to measure radiation levels in facilities such as nuclear power plants.
Each type of UV-IR control detector may have different features and applications. Depending on the application, which type of detector is appropriate is determined.
UV-IR control detectors used in the fire industry are extensively used in fire detection systems. Some common features of these detectors are:
Dual-spectrum detectors: These are the most commonly used detectors for early fire detection. They can detect both ultraviolet (UV) radiation and infrared (IR) radiation, providing highly sensitive fire detection.
High sensitivity: UV-IR control detectors help trigger the fire alarm by detecting light emissions at specific wavelengths from gases, smoke, and vapors in the atmosphere. This allows for early detection of the fire, enabling prompt action to be taken.
Fast response time: UV-IR control detectors are equipped with fast response times. The time required to trigger the fire alarm is minimized.
Low false alarm rate: UV-IR control detectors operate with high accuracy levels, reducing the risk of false alarm triggering.
Remote monitoring: UV-IR control detectors may be equipped with remote monitoring capability. This allows for 24-hour monitoring of alarm systems.
Reliability: UV-IR control detectors are designed to be reliable and durable, and can withstand various environmental factors.
Easy installation and maintenance: UV-IR control detectors are designed for easy installation. Regular maintenance requirements are kept to a minimum.
The features of UV-IR control detectors may vary depending on the application or device manufacturer. However, for UV-IR control detectors used in fire detection systems, it can be said that they are highly sensitive, have fast response times, low false alarm rates, remote monitoring capabilities, and are reliable and durable.
The NERO Industry UV-IR CONTROL DETECTOR comprises a sensor module and electronic controller housed within a copper- free aluminum, explosion-proof enclosure. The sensor module incorporates an ultraviolet sensor and an infrared sensor, both of which must respond to an event before generating an alarm signal. Periodically an optical test source within the device emits radiation through the lens of each sensor to a reflective plate. The returned signal provides a periodic check of the optical surfaces, sensors, and signal processing circuitry. Units have an optional air shield for dust environments.
Advantages:
The performance of UV-IR control detectors is evaluated according to specific test standards. Here are some test standards for UV-IR control detectors:
EN 54: This European standard is applicable for UV-IR control detectors in fire detection and alarm systems. Detectors that comply with this standard can be released to the market by obtaining a product conformity certificate.
UL 268: This American standard is used to determine the performance of UV-IR control detectors. The standard includes test procedures that determine detector sensitivity, false alarm rates, and other performance characteristics.
FM Global: This industrial insurance company develops test protocols to evaluate the performance of devices used in fire fighting. UV-IR control detectors can also be tested by FM Global under this scope.
NFPA 72: This National Fire Protection Association standard determines the performance of all devices used in fire alarm systems. UV-IR control detectors can also be tested in accordance with this standard.
UV-IR control detectors may be subject to different standards depending on the application used. However, compliance with EN 54 and UL 268 standards usually plays an important role in evaluating the performance of UV-IR control detectors.
UV-IR control detectors are a type of detector used in fire detection systems. Fire detection systems are used to detect fires at an early stage and trigger alarms in a specific area. UV-IR control detectors work by detecting light emissions at specific wavelengths from gases, smoke, and vapors in the atmosphere.
UV-IR control detectors can operate in two different spectra: ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR). Dual-spectrum detectors provide more sensitive fire detection by detecting both UV and IR radiation. Some detectors only operate in a single spectrum and are designed for use in certain environments such as rainforests.
UV-IR control detectors are also used in industrial environments, in addition to fire detection systems. For example, special spark detectors used in places where materials are at high risk of catching fire can also use UV-IR control technology.
In summary, UV-IR control detectors are a type of detector used for early fire detection and triggering alarms in fire detection systems.
