Apollo Marine Intelligent Base Mounted UV IR2 Flame Detector (55000-028MAR)

The Apollo Marine Intelligent Base Mounted UV/IR2 Flame Detector (55000-028MAR) is designed to protect open indoor areas where open flaming fires may be expected. Combining ultraviolet (UV) and dual infrared (IR2) sensing technologies, the detector provides rapid and reliable flame detection while helping to minimise false alarms from non-fire sources of radiation.

The 55000-028MAR uses a UV sensor and two IR sensors that respond to different wavelengths, making it able to distinguish genuine flames from false radiation sources. Advanced filtering and signal processing techniques reduce false alarms caused by conditions such as flickering sunlight, providing reliable performance in challenging marine and industrial environments.

Designed for smooth integration into marine fire alarm systems, the detector operates using the Apollo XP95 or Discovery digital protocol and works with CoreProtocol. Its compact design fits directly into Apollo Discovery Marine Bases, while loop-powered operation eliminates the need for an external power supply.
