APOLLO Series 60 Ultraviolet (UV) Flame Detector
The Apollo Series 60 Ultraviolet (UV) Flame Detector is designed especially for indoor applications where flame-based fires are expected. Its fast-response UV sensor enables flame detection up to 25 meters, while the detection principle helps distinguish radiation sources that could otherwise lead to false alarms, providing reliable protection.
For correct operation, it is recommended/required to use the detector together with the 45681-200APO mounting base.
With its wide supply voltage range, industrial temperature tolerance and standards approvals, it offers a compatible solution for safety and fire detection systems.
