Features & Benefits
• Wide field of view offers greater fire detection coverage
• Event logging stores fault and alarm history
• 4-20 mA stepped output conforms to industry standard for
remote alarm and fault indication
• Modbus and HART user interface provides complete status and
control capability in the control room
• Wide operating temperature range permits use at higher
ambient temperature
• Continuous Optical Path Monitoring (COPM) checks optical
path integrity and detector’s electronic circuitry once every
minute
• Three SPDT high-current programmable relay outputs provide
immediate and time delayed relay outputs for alarm, warn and
fault conditions
The General Monitors FL3100H and FL3101H are Ultraviolet/ Infrared
and Ultraviolet-only flame detectors designed to detect unwanted
fires and provide alarm outputs directly from the detector while
maintaining false alarm immunity.
The FL3100H detects fires by monitoring in both the ultraviolet
and infrared (UV & IR) spectral ranges making it highly immune to
false alarms caused by lightning, arc welding, hot objects and
other sources of radiation. The FL3101H detects in only the
ultraviolet (UV) spectral range for optimized speed of response.
Other features of the FL3100H and FL3101H include three alarm/
fault relays, and an RS-485 serial output with Modbus RTU protocol
for linking up to 128 detectors in series or 247 with repeaters. The
RS-485 and HART outputs provide status, alarm, fault and other
information for operation, troubleshooting or programming of the
units. HART allows this feature without rewiring.
The COPM (Continuous Optical Path Monitoring) self test feature
checks the optical path integrity (window cleanliness) and the
UV Infrared Detector with false alarm immunity.The FL3100H has been discontinued. Please see the FL500 UV/IR Flame Detector as an alternative. The FL3100H is an Ultraviolet / Infrared flame detector designed to detect fires and provide alarm outputs directly from the detector while maintaining false alarm immunity. It monitors in both the ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) spectral ranges, making it highly immune to false alarms.
