Triple IR Flame Detector for Energy Transition
The FlameSpec™ StretcH2 flame detector provides unrivaled response, high performance, and reliable detection for a number of fires found in energy transition applications, such as hydrogen and hydrocarbon fires.
The detector addresses slow-growing fires as well as fast eruptions of fire using improved IR3 technology. The detector operates in all weather and light conditions.
These features, along with the built-in event logger, provide additional means to study the cause and development of fire events.
Description
