FS20X-211 IR/UV SS M25 FM/EN54

FS20X-211-24-6

Based on the foundation of the highly successful and reliable SS4 detector, the FS20X detector represents a quantum leap in integrating Infrared and Ultraviolet sensing technologies. The FS20X is a multi-spectrum UV/Dual IR/VIS fire and flame detector with a proven UV solar-blind sensor.
The FS20X detector uses advanced algorithms for signal processing and fire and flame analysis to alarm to most fires in all industrial environmental conditions. If the detector’s UV signal is degraded due to heavy smoke or a contaminated lens, the FS20X’s patented WideBand IR™, Near Band IR and Visible sensors will still alarm to fire, albeit at a reduced sensitivity and slower response time.

The FS20X detector has a detection range in excess of 60 m (200 feet) (very high sensitivity setting) for the detection of a 0.1m2 (one square-foot) n-Heptane reference fire and has a field of view with a greater volumetric coverage than most UV/IR detectors.
