Theory of operation
The Model 860 ame detectors
The Model 860 ame detectors are multi-spectrum detectors, which
provide a high degree of discrimination by sensing widely separated
ame emission spectra, both of which are found in hydrocarbon
and certain specied non-hydrocarbon res. Sophisticated signal
processing is accomplished by microprocessor technology. Automatic
self-testing of the electronics, sensors and optical surfaces is
accomplished using light guides. The light guides direct radiant energy
by a calibrated internal source lamp to the sensors, whereby it can be
determined if the detector’s windows have been contaminated to the
point that would render it blind to res. This self-interrogation is done
a minimum of four times per hour, thus providing the ultimate in re
detection reliability.
The two spectral regions selected for sensing re signals are the
Ultraviolet (UV) and Infrared (IR). The UV sensor is the stable, highly
reliable UV photon sensor tube which has a peak response centered
around 0.22 microns. The design of the tube is optimized for the
highest sensitivity to the UV radiation emitted by a ame with the
lowest response to background radiation such as near UV, black light,
visible light, sunlight and blackbody radiation, thereby providing a
very high signal-to-noise ratio.
The IR sensor is responsive to 4.4 microns. This Spectral frequency
is always present in a hydrocarbon re due to the excitation of hot
carbon dioxide molecules.
Additionally the option is available in which the IR sensor is responsive
to 2.9 microns as well as 4.4 microns. This option enables the detector
to sense certain non-hydrocarbon res. The detector’s autonull feature
eliminates interference due to background radiation in these regions
of the spectrum.
The Model 860 ame detector not only requires the coexistence of
UV and IR radiation, but also their presence in specic ratios. The ratio
must conform to the radiation pattern of specic res (see Figure 3).
This patented Fire Event Analysis (FEA) ensures the highest possible
discrimination between re and non-re sources.
The Model 660 ame detectors
The Model 660 ame detectors are single spectrum detectors utilizing
the same ultraviolet sensor tube as described for the Model 860 ame
detector.
The Model 660 ame detector requires only that a signal within the
detection envelope of the UV sensor will be present in a pre-dened
strength for a specied time duration. These parameters are user
adjustable and will determine the sensitivity and response time to all
res.
NOTE: Reference Figure 3 for appropriate sensor wavelength regions
to be used in Zeta calculation per NFPA 72 edition 2002 or later.
