DESCRIPTION

· KEMET's QFC pyroelectric flame sensors accurately discriminate flame sources in triple IR flame detection systems, leveraging excellent signal-to-noise characteristics at the 8-10 Hz flicker range of a flame. The sensor is integrated into a low-noise circuit with an internal CMOS op amp and a 10 GΩ feedback resistor, outputting a voltage signal centered around half the supply rail.

FEATURES

· Exceptionally high responsivity
· Wide field of view, typically 100° (subject to filter bandpass specification)
· Rapid recovery from thermal and electrical shock (<1 second downtime)
· TO39 package
· Analog output
· Integrated op amp

APPLICATIONS

· Industrial
· Oil and gas
· Infrastructure protection
· Forest protection
