A triple IR (IR3) flame detector is an advanced type of optical flame detector that uses three separate infrared (IR) sensors to detect flames. The detection angle can reach 90°, easily covering more areas, effectively reducing the detection blind area.
Triple IR Flame Detector Adopts Die-cast Aluminum Housing
- Enhanced Durability and Strength. Die-cast aluminum housing provides exceptional structural strength while keeping the detector lightweight. This is crucial for industrial applications. The rigid structure of die-cast aluminum helps the IR3 flame detector resist mechanical damage, vibration, and impact.
- Heat Dissipation. Die-cast aluminum offers superior thermal conductivity. This property helps the triple IR flame detector effectively dissipate heat generated during continuous operation or from external heat sources. Efficient heat dissipation reduces the risk of overheating, contributing to stable performance and prolonging the life of internal electronics.
- Lightweight and Easy Installation. Compared to other metal housings, die-cast aluminum is relatively lightweight without compromising strength. A lighter housing simplifies installation, handling, and maintenance.
360° Adjustable Bracket
- Flexible and Precise Installation. The 360° adjustable bracket allows the flame detector to be easily oriented in any direction after mounting. This flexibility ensures the IR flame detector can be precisely aimed toward potential flame sources, even in complex environments with obstacles, machinery, or irregular layouts. This reduces blind spots and ensures optimal positioning.
- Adaptability to Changing Environments. Indoor industrial or commercial settings often change over time, whether due to equipment rearrangement, layout modifications, or expansion projects. An infrared flame detector with a 360° adjustable angle can be reoriented as needed.
Applications
SISCO triple IR flame detector can quickly identify fires at an early stage, allowing for rapid intervention and minimizing damage or downtime. IR3 flame detector is widely used in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, where fast, accurate flame detection is critical for safety. It is also suitable for both laboratory and warehouse. (It is recommended to use it indoors for the best effect.)

Q1: What is flame detector?
A1: A flame detector is a sensor designed to detect the presence of flame or fire and respond by triggering an alarm or activating safety systems. It is commonly used in industrial facilities, power plants, commercial kitchens, and hazardous environments to provide early fire warnings. Flame detectors can sense ultraviolet (UV), infrared (IR), or combined UV/IR radiation emitted by flames.
Q2: What are the types of flame detector?
A2: Flame detectors come in several types, each designed to sense specific characteristics of a flame. The main types include ultraviolet (UV) flame detectors, which detect UV radiation emitted by flames, and infrared (IR) flame detectors, which sense the infrared radiation produced by combustion. There are also UV/IR combined detectors that use both technologies for greater accuracy and reduced false alarms.
Q3: Is the flame detector suitable for indoor and outdoor use?
A3: Depending on its design and specifications. When selecting a flame detector, it is important to check its IP rating, certification, and environmental tolerance to ensure it meets the requirements of your specific application. It is recommended to use uv ir flame detector outdoors.
Tips: What are the advantages of using an IR3 flame detector over a single IR detector?
A triple IR flame detector offers significant advantages over a single IR detector, primarily in detection reliability and false alarm immunity. By using three infrared sensors tuned to different wavelengths, the IR3 detector can accurately identify. This multi-spectrum approach provides superior immunity to false triggers and enhances detection reliability in complex indoor environments. Its enhanced sensitivity and discrimination make IR3 flame detector ideal for high-risk industrial settings such as oil refineries and chemical plants.
