Micropack FDS303 Flame Detector

Micropack FDS303 Flame Detector – Explosion Proof Multi Spectrum IR3

The FDS303 Flame Detector is an explosion-proof multi-spectrum IR3 flame detector offering fast hydrocarbon fire detection up to 60m, high false alarm immunity, and SIL2 certification.

140.000,00 EGP

The FDS303 Flame Detector from Micropack delivers explosion-proof, multi-spectrum infrared flame detection for hazardous industries where rapid fire response is critical and nuisance alarms must be avoided.

It detects hydrocarbon liquid and gas fires at long distances and responds in less than 5 seconds. In fact, independent testing confirms detection of a hydrocarbon fuel pan fire at nearly 200 ft (60m), which makes it an ideal solution for high-risk environments.

Moreover, Micropack integrates advanced IR flame detection algorithms to ensure strong false alarm immunity. As a result, the detector performs reliably even in demanding industrial conditions.

In addition, the device includes continuous optical self-testing, so operators can verify performance at all times and improve system uptime. Furthermore, the microprocessor-controlled heated optics maintain stable operation during harsh weather such as snow, ice, and condensation.

Finally, the FDS303 Flame Detector supports easy integration through configurable alarm and fault relays, 0–20mA output, and HART® communication, providing flexibility for modern fire and gas safety systems.
