Quick, reliable and easier flame detection 

Teledyne Gas and Flame Detection has unveiled its latest range of flame detectors - the SpyglassTM SG50-F series. This new product range aims to make safeguarding people and assets easier by providing quick, reliable, and easy-to-use flame detection technology.

With updated optics and algorithms, the SG50-F series offers superior performance and security. The flame detectors come equipped with HD video capabilities, allowing for the detection of fires that may not be visible to the naked eye. The on-board video also enables remote confirmation of fire situations and provides valuable information on fire progression and suppression methods, allowing users to make important safety decisions from a remote location.

The SpyglassTM SG50-F series is ideal for any facility looking to protect its most valuable resources, including human lives and capital assets. The range offers improved optical flame detection capabilities, with a quicker detection time and better performance even over extended distances. These detectors can serve as a cost-effective alternative to employing multiple line of sight point gas detectors, which would entail higher initial costs and maintenance expenses.

The SpyglassTM series products are housed in a robust and durable enclosure made from 316L stainless steel, meeting IP66/IP68 and NEMA 250 6P protection rating standards. The enclosure houses state-of-the-art optic technology and advanced software algorithms, enabling rapid and reliable fire detection. These detectors also offer industry-leading false alarm immunity to several challenging environments while performing in adverse climates.

The range offers a variety of options to suit a range of applications. The triple infrared (IR3) and UV-IR options are available for hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon fires, making it perfect for applications such as refineries, oil and gas platforms, FPSO (floating production storage and offloading) systems, petrochemical plants, marine facilities, compressor stations, turbine enclosures, battery rooms, ammonia, metal-based applications, and even munitions facilities.

The SpyglassTM SG50-F series is supplied with configuration and video display software, offering multiple output options for easy detector communication, such as 4-20mA, Modbus, HART, and relays. The range carries a wide range of global approvals that include ATEX, FMus, FMc, IECEx, EACX, and SIL2.

In summary, Teledyne Gas and Flame Detection's SpyglassTM SG50-F series of flame detectors is a groundbreaking solution that elevates the level of reliability and functionality available in comparison with existing flame detection products on the market. With quick, reliable, and easy-to-use flame detection technology, the SpyglassTM SG50-F series offers superior performance and security for any facility looking to protect its most valuable resources, including human lives and capital assets.
