Spyglass SG50 series optical flame detectors IR3, IR3-H2, UV/IR or CO2-L

With optimized algorithms and new integrated video functionality in color or NIR depending on fuel type, Spyglass SG50 series optical flame detectors offer unrivaled performance for detecting various fires and flames even at great distances.

  • ATEX, IECEx, FMus, FMc, UKEX, and SIL2-certified optical flame detectors with optional integrated HD video capability
  • 5 versions available: IR3 (hydrocarbons), IR3-H2 (hydrogen or methanol fires), UV/IR, UV/IR-F (sparks, electric arcs), or CO2-L (exhaust gas fires)
  • Multiple outputs: relay contacts, analog, MODBUS communication, HART
  • Quick response time : 5 - 40 ms in the event of an explosion or rapid-fire
  • 2 video modes available: HD color or near IR for invisible fires
Additional information

Spyglass SG50 series optical flame detectors are available in 5 versions:

  • IR3 for fuel and hydrocarbon gas fires over long distances, with exceptional immunity to false alarms
  • IR3-H2 for "invisible" methanol or hydrogen fires. It can also detect fires involving other substances, such as ammonia, and silane, and fires arising from new energy transition processes
  • UV/IR for a large variety of fuels, hydrogen, ammonia, silane, and metal fires
  • UV/IR-F for ultra-fast response to sparks, arcs, fireballs, and explosions
  • CO2-L (hot CO2 release) to provide fast, reliable detection of a wide range of hydrocarbon fires or combustion exhaust gases
  • The NFPA33 - Ultra-fast detection option is available in UVIR, IR3, and IR3-H2 configurations. It enables ultra-fast detection of fires in high-speed production processes such as spray booths, high-speed printing and coating, conveyors, etc.

Spyglass SG50 series optical flame detectors are immune to false alarms, enabling them to operate in the harshest environments and climates. They can feature an optional video or near-infrared device to detect flames that are not always visible to the naked eye. In fact, the near-infrared video option enables us to see hydrogen and methanol fires, while the color video option is more efficient for observing hydrocarbon or methane flames.

SG50 series optical flame detectors can be connected to a gas or fire detection control unit to complete a fixed gas detection system . It can also be associated with a broad range of ATEX accessories (ATEX cable glands, sirens signaling devices, etc.).
