1. Introduction
The FlameSpec-IR3-H2 flame detector will detect hydrogen and other “energy transition” fires quickly
allowing actions to be initiated to minimize the extend of the fire. 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 a built-in event logger, provide additional means to study the cause and
development of fire events.
The detector is certified for use in hazardous area locations; it may also be used in other areas not
classified as hazardous. The two cable/conduit entries either side of the lower part of the detector
housing are for connecting power and outputs to associated signaling equipment.
During normal operation, the flame detector performs self-tests of its optics, electronics, and software.
These include a periodic BIT (Built-In-Test) in which the sensors and window cleanliness are tested.
Features
High sensitivity - up to 100ft (30m)
Ultra-fast detection mode - detection within 40 milliseconds for fireballs or explosions.
Detection of “energy transition” flames, like hydrogen, methane, syngas, and methanol
Extreme sensitivity: Up to 100 ft. (30m) for a 32” plume, 1.5secs response
Option: Improved speed of response for standard fires - (0.5s) for enclosed space protection, like spray
paint booths or printing presses
Built-in-Test (BIT) - Automatic and manual self-test of window cleanliness and detector operation.
Window heater to avoid condensation and icing.
Tilt mounting bracket for accurate detector positioning.

Model Number Description
Model No are defined as follows:
FLS-IR3-H2 - A S X X
0 Standard, no Hart and not SIL certified.
1 Standard
5 Design for, but not limited to, automotive spray paint applications
where compliance with 0.5 s response (per NFPA 33) is needed.
Generally used for enclosed spare protection.
1 M25
2 ¾” NPT
1.2.1 Enhanced performance options
Option 5: Design for, but not limited to, enclosed space protection like automotive spray paint applications
where compliance with 0.5 s response (per NFPA 33) is needed
Internal tests
During normal operation, the flame detector performs self-tests of its optics, electronics and software. These
include a periodic BIT (Built-In-Test) in which the sensors and window cleanliness are tested. Any detected
fault is indicated as shown in Table 4 (in section 4). During “Dirty Window” fault the detection sensitivity is
significantly reduced, while “Fault” refers to critical faults which totally prevent flame detection.

Accessories
1.5.1 Mounting Bracket
The detector should be mounted using the
stainless-steel tilt mount part number FLS-
TMO-S01. This allows the detector to be
securely attached to a wall, pole or other
solid surface using appropriate fixings. See
section2.5 and 2.6 for further details.
