Description
Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF): Operational Overview
The Fike IR3-H2 Triple IR Hydrogen Flame Detector is a type-approved commercial marine safetysecurity system engineered for high-reliability deep-sea and offshore vessel operations. Compliant with international IMO/SOLAS and IEC standards, the unit is fully supplied, bench-tested, and supported worldwide by Seanav Marine from our Dubai Maritime City (DMC) technical facility.
The IR3-H2 Triple IR Hydrogen Flame Detector from Fike provides ultra-fast response, high performance, and reliable detection for a number of fires found in Energy Transition applications, such as hydrogen, syngas, ammonia, methane, and methanol. The detector addresses slow growing fires as well as fast eruptions of fire using improved IR3 technology. The detector is also capable of operating in all weather and light conditions.
Key Engineering Features & Operational Advantages
- High immunity to false alarm, including arc welding
- Ultra-fast mode detection within 40 milliseconds for Hydrogen fireballs/explosions
- Detects hydrogen, ammonia, methane & syngas flames using 3 infrared wavelenghts
- Event logger: Alarms & Faults are logged to non-volatile memory
