FDS301 Flame Detector FDS301 Safety and Technical Manual Ref: 2200.5009 Rev: 2.3 ECN 4434 Safety Instructions For the correct and effective use of this equipment, to maintain safety and avoid hazards it is essential that you read and understand these instructions fully, act accordingly BEFORE installing, operating or maintaining the equipment. -
Page 6: Vds En54 Part 10 Limitations Of Use
As the FDS301 responds to visible flame the FDS301 cannot be used in locations where flare stacks are within its field of view without triggering alarms. The FDS301 is unable to detect fires that are invisible to the naked eye, such as those using pure hydrogen, methanol and sulphur as fuel. - Page 7 The FS301 flame simulator can be used to verify correct detector positioning and coverage (see section 6.2 of this document). • The FDS301 has one sensitivity setting, this is factory set, and no changes can be made to set-up except by fully trained Micropack engineers. •...
