GreCon FM ⅛ Spark and Hot Spot Detector

Best performance in detecting ignition sources in opaque areas

GRECON FM 1/8 SPARK AND HOT SPOT DETECTOR

The FM 1/8 is a high-sensitivity spark detector used to detect sparks and embers as well as smoking and hot particles in industrial process protection scenarios of transported materials, for example during pneumatic and mechanical transport. The spark detector reacts to the infrared radiation of the light emitted by the ignition source. It is designed to be used in an environment free from ambient light. Detection is independent of the temperature of the ignition source and remains optimal even in the event of clogging, thanks to a blowing device (optional). The detector is connected to our control unit using a three-core cable via a terminal box. The control unit continuously monitors this connection and the optimal functioning of the spark detector is checked at automatic intervals.

Benefits

  • High sensitivity for detecting sparks and hot spots in opaque areas
  • High detection of ignition sources even at very high conveying speeds and material loads
  • Maximum service life of the detector optics thanks to flush mounting
  • Variety of mounting options thanks to various proven bracket types
  • VdS and FM approved; also available with dust explosion protection approvals (ATEX and IECEx)
