Make sure that the users of the installation are well-instructed and know which actions should be taken in case of an alarm. In case of doubt consult the supplier of this product. SENSE-WARE does not take responsibility for the proper working of this equipment, if it is not commissioned or used according to the instructions in this manual.

2. Data Sheet The SENSE-WARE flame detectors utilize a microprocessor for sophisticated electronic signal analysis. The sensors must exceed their alarm threshold to initiate a fire alarm. The UV/IR and IR3 flame detector use as additional alarm criterion: the analysis of the flame flicker-frequency.

3. Function of the detector The LEDs on the display The SENSE-WARE flame detector has 3 LEDs on the display. These have the following meaning: ⚫ continuous green: normal operation ⚫ continuous yellow: fault ⚫ blinking yellow: fault warning and guide to repeat self-test after a self-test or test failure ⚫...

Identify the fire risks and make sure that a sufficient amount of detectors is installed to monitor all fire risks. Classify, if applicable, the fire risk into the performance requirement classes A, B and C. On the website www.sense-ware.com this classification is explained.

In indoor applications the flame detector must be placed at approx. 1.5 m (IR3 model ) or 0.5 m (UV and UV/IR moedels) below the ceiling to avoid obscuration by smoke. Extremely tight fog or heavy rains or snow can negatively influence the performance of the flame detector. 10.

4.4 Orientation By mounting the flame detector with an angle of 45 heading to the bottom, you make full use of the cone of vision of the flame detector. If, seeing from the top, the flame detector also is directed diagonally, a volume is monitored. Top view 4.5 Shadow effect As rule of thumb you can take that the mounting...

4.6 Voting The flame detector will not give an alarm until several alarm criteria are met at the same time. The probability of a false alarm is therefore very low. The flame detector is for this reason suitable for an extinguishing action based on the signal of one flame detector.

Make use of an address unit of a fire control system. Use a bus protocol. For these options dedicated junction boxes are available. Please contact your supplier or SENSE-WARE for these special options. Steps for wiring on a fire control panel or a PLC: For the cabling at least 3- or 4 wire cabling is needed, depending on the panel and the type of connection.

Connection diagram 6.1 Wiring: Fire Control Panel The flame detector can be electrically connected to a fire control panel the same way that a manual call point is connected; by means of the current increase principle. The flame detector is connected to the fire panel with 3 or 4 wire cables. 2 wires for the power supply and 1 or 2 wires for the zone.
Page 13
Principle: The zone uses the alarm contact and the fault contact of the flame detector plus resistors. In case of a detector fault a wire breakage is simulated. In case of a fault followed by an alarm, a current Vn/AL is flowing through the zone. Thus an alarm “overrides”...

6.3 Installing the manual self-test For the installation of the manual self-test in this section, 4 options are shown by means of a scheme: Flame detector connected to a fire control panel, with a self-test switch on the fire control panel. Flame detector connected to a fire control panel with a separate switch for the manual self-test.

SENSE-WARE supplies a test lamp. This test lamp is suitable for functional testing the flame detector. Read the test lamp instructions before you start the functional test.

In case of an authorization SENSE-WARE will provide your supplier an RMA number which you have to add to the packing list of the return shipment. You also have to include the RMI form in the shipment plus faxing or emailing it to SENSE-WARE.
