FS24X is a quantum leap in flame and fire detection with its sophisticated software and
detection technology.
The FS24X is the latest generation high technology Multi-Spectrum Triple IR (IR/IR/IR/Visible)
Fire and Flame Detector, which is part of our FSX family of advanced technology Electro-Optical
fire detectors. Using our patented WideBand IR™, WideBand 4.3 micron IR™, and Visible detection
technology, the FS24X is a quantum leap in flame and fire detection. Sophisticated software
algorithms and dual microprocessors ensure that the FS24X has the highest fire detection
performance combined with optimal false alarm rejection.
The WideBand IR™ Infrared technology using high-speed solid-state Quantum sensors allows
detection of all types of fires, hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon, in all weather conditions. If the
detector’s signal is blocked by ordinary window glass, the patented WideBand IR sensors will still
alarm to the fire albeit at a reduced sensitivity and slower response time.
The FSX family of detectors feature our patented FirePic data storage and information retrieval
facility. FirePic™ records pre-fire data, which can be recovered from the Detector’s non-volatile
flash memory for post fire analysis and postulation of the fire cause. Additionally, unique Real-Time
Graphing (RTG™) allows viewing of the data which the Detector actually sees. A combination of
outputs makes the FS24X a truly versatile detector for today’s demanding industrial requirements.
The FS24X detector has a detection range greater than 60 m (200 feet) (Very High Sensitivity
setting) for the detection of a 0.1 m2 (one square-foot) Heptane reference fire and has a cone of
vision far greater in volumetric coverage than any other Multi-Spectrum IR Detector. This means
fewer Detectors can be used as compared to other manufacturers’ Detectors.
Dual microprocessors provide a high level of fail-safe operation
combined with fast and reliable performance. The master
microprocessor performs high-speed digital sampling and signalprocessing calculations, while the slave microprocessor handles
various sensor data, performs communications, self-diagnostics and
provides interface versatility and additional memory for storing Event
Log and FirePic™ data.
