SICK Gas Analyzers SFDS

The SFDS (Smoldering Fire Detection System) is a continuous measurement analyzer system for monitoring carbon monoxide (CO) in applications with high dust content. The cold/dry extractive measurement of the components CO and O2 enables early detection of smoldering fires and timely initiation of fire-fighting measures. The ATEX-certified system components allow for reliable monitoring in dust Ex areas (ATEX zones 20, 21 and 22), such as in coil mills or bunkers. Unlike with optical systems that measure the surface, deeper-lying embers can also be detected. The SFDS offers simultaneous monitoring of up to four sampling points using only one analyzer system.
