Apollo Intelligent Flameproof IR3 Flame Detector (55000-021APO)

The Apollo Intelligent Flameproof IR3 Flame Detector (55000-021APO) is designed to protect areas where open flaming fires may be expected. Using advanced triple infrared (IR3) sensing technology, the detector is highly sensitive to the low frequency flickering infrared radiation emitted by flames during combustion, providing fast and reliable flame detection in challenging environments.

The 55000-021APO detects flickering infrared radiation through films of oil, dust, water, and ice, ensuring dependable performance in harsh operating conditions. The detector can also identify flames that may be invisible to the naked eye while keeping excellent immunity to false alarms caused by light sources and moving sunlight.

Designed for seamless integration with Apollo addressable fire alarm systems, the detector operates exclusively with control equipment using the Apollo XP95 or Discovery digital protocol. It draws power directly from the detection loop, eliminating the need for an external power supply and making installation easier.
