Properties of Flames and Flame Detection Training

Flame Detection Basics

This course covers the properties of flammable materials, principles of flame behaviour, different types of fuels and classes of fire, specific detectable fuels and the detection techniques used, providing a understanding of flame detection.

Flame Detection Principles 

This course covers the principles used in flame detection. You will learn which flame sensors are available, how they work and what they can and cannot be used for. You will learn how to specify flame detection equipment and how to design a safety protocol for detecting different common fires.

Flame Detection Selection and Location

This course covers selection of the optimum detector type (UVIR/IR3/HD) for the application, taking into consideration fuel to be detected, environmental situation, and specification requirements for coverage. It looks at detector placement and some of the common site conditions which can influence a detectors performance, including containments, inhibitors, and physical barriers. We also discuss detector cone of vision, detector range, sensitivity, and configuration to provide an optimum flame detector solution.

Flame Detection Applications

Why would someone need to detect flames? Where in industry would I need to detect flames, why is flame detection necessary to protect process plant? All these questions and more are answered by this course, covering the commonly found applications in industry, where flames occur and why, and what equipment to use to detect them.
