The Dräger Flame 2370 combines very sensitive UV und IR sensors. It is quick and reliable in detecting hydrocarbon- and hydrogen-based fires, as well as hydroxyl flames, and fires resulting from metallic or inorganic materials – fire flashes and explosions are detected in less than 20 milliseconds. This degree of reliability complies with the IEC 61508 safety integrity requirements of SIL2.

Moreover, the flame detector has HART^® and RS-485 Modbus interfaces and requires very little power.

The two sensors incorporated in the Flame 2370 offer detection in the shortwave UV range and in the IR spectrum. Frequency, intensity and duration of the measuring signals are analysed. An alarm is set off only when both sensors meet the reaction criteria. This way the Flame 2370 prevents false alarms. Moreover, the sensitive detection ensures that the detector does not falsely set off an alarm for fires emanating from other areas.

The housing is very resilient and weatherproof. The viewing window is heated to protect it from icing and fogging up. This allows you to operate the Flame 2370 reliably under the most diverse environmental conditions.

The Built-in-Test (BIT) automatically checks the electronics and the optics of the Flame 2370. You can also perform the check manually. A tri-coloured LED at the front of the detector provides a quick status indication. Green indicates normal operation, yellow indicates a fault and red indicates a fire alarm.
