SS2-AM Series UV/IR Ultra-High Speed Digital Fire and Flame Detector

SS2 Flame Detector
SSX Flame Detectors

These multi-spectrum flame detectors sense radiant energy in the ultraviolet (UV), visible and WideBand InfraredTM (IR) spectrum.
Features & Benefits
Detects hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon based fires
Wide field-of-view or solar blind

Explosion-proof housing

Product Overview

The SS2-AM and SS2-AML are the ultra-high speed digital Multi-Spectrum optical models of the SS2 UV/IR Flame Detectors. These detectors feature ultra-high speed responses to explosive fires and are typically used in munitions production, explosives production and special applications.

The field of view for the SS2 Flame Detector is the widest in the industry with a 120° cone of vision. This means each detector can cover more hazard area. Greater sensitivity also increases the volume covered by each detector, up to four times more than some other detectors.

Using sophisticated microprocessor signal processing algorithms with complete spectrum information, virtual immunity to false alarms from arc welding, corona discharge and other common UV sources is achieved.
