SYSTEM APPLICATION

The Det-Tronics model R7404 Controller and C7050

Detector provide fast, reliable flame detection in a wide

variety of applications. The microprocessor based con-

troller simultaneously monitors up to 16 C7050 ultraviolet

(UV) detectors in up to 8 different zones. The system

uses the Automatic Optical Integrity (o

) feature, which

provides a continuous check of detector optical sur-

faces, detector sensitivity, and electronic circuitry of the

detector/controller system. Also included is automatic

fault identification, which monitors the system for proper

operation, and provides a digital display of system sta-

tus using a numerical code. Other features include indi-

vidual zone identification and “voting” capability, as well

as manual o

testing.

The C7050 Detector responds instantly to the ultraviolet

radiation that is emitted by a flame. It is designed for

use in hazardous locations and is particularly suitable for

use in outdoor applications because it is not affected by

wind or rain, and is insensitive to solar radiation. In addi-

tion, the detector does not respond to normal artificial

light.

Typical applications for Det-Tronics UV detection sys-

tems are:

—Wherever highly combustible materials are involved

—Where there is a need for instantaneous response to

flame

—Wherever unsupervised areas require automated fire

protection

—Where there is a large capital investment to be pro-

tected.

Examples of actual installations using the Det-Tronics UV

detector in automated fire protection systems include:

Petroleum Products

—Gasoline transport loading terminals

—Offshore drilling and production platforms

—Pipeline pumping stations

—Tank farms

—Refineries

—Marine engine rooms

—Jet engine test cells

Gaseous Fuels

—Butane and propane loading and storage

—Pipeline compressor stations

—Gas gathering facilities

—Pipelines in highly populated areas

—LNG loading, transfer and storage facilities

—Hydrogen and ammonia production and refinery

reformers

—Gas turbines
