The Drager Flame 5000 is an explosion-proof flame detector that uses imaging-based technology. It uses digital image processing and advanced algorithms to interpret flame characteristics, providing an extended field of view and reducing false alarms.
Immunity against false alarms
The Flame 5000 features a unique software algorithm that can differentiate between actual fire conditions and other radiant sources that can cause traditional detectors to malfunction or generate false alarms. It resists common sources of unwanted alarms, including welding activities, hot CO2 emissions, and flare reflections. This makes it an ideal companion for your oil rig or industrial plant.
Maximum field of view
The Flame 5000 can detect n-heptane fires of 0.1 m2 (1 ft²) or greater at a distance of 44 m (144 ft) within a 90° horizontal and 65° vertical field of view. The detector’s field of view is a rectangular pyramid shape. This gives it one of the greatest standard coverage areas and range of any available flame detector.
Flexible operation
The Flame 5000 operates as a stand-alone unit to transmit live video recordings or can be connected to a control system or a fire panel to provide fault and fire signalling. This is achieved using a 0 to 20 mA signal or relay outputs. An integrated memory card lets the detector record videos before and after alarm events.
Depending on the environmental conditions, you can choose between an aluminium or a stainless steel housing.
Safe and fast intervention
Live video provides instant visual verification of a fire alarm without the operator having to enter a dangerous area. This reduces the risk of injury and improves response time.
An optical verification facility checks the window for contamination and ensures its field of view is not compromised by obstructions placed immediately before the detector.
Functional test
The Drager FS-5000 flame simulator tests Dräger Flame Detectors at distances up to eight metres (22 ft). Maintenance costs can be decreased with a reduced need for scaffolds or ladders to access the detector.
Easy to install and use
The detector is easy to install using a mounting bracket of stainless steel. The swivelling mounting bracket ensures that the device is optimally aimed towards potential sources of fire. The device status is displayed to nearby workers by a tri-coloured LED light.
