Fire Sentry FS24X is a quantum leap in
flame and fire detection with its
sophisticated software and detection
technology.
The Fire Sentry FS24X is the latest generation high technology Multi-Spectrum
Triple IR (IR/IR/IR/Visible) Fire and Flame Detector, which is part of our FSX
family of advanced technology Electro-Optical fire detectors. Using our
patented* WideBand IRTM, WideBand 4.3 micron IRTM, and Visible detection
technology, the Fire Sentry FS24X is a quantum leap in flame and fire detection.
Sophisticated software algorithms and dual microprocessors ensure that the
Fire Sentry FS24X has the highest fire detection performance combined with
optimal false alarm rejection.

The WideBand IRTM Infrared technology using high-speed solid-state Quantum
sensors allows detection of all types of fires, hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon,
in all weather conditions. If the detector’s signal is blocked by ordinary window
glass, the patented WideBand IR sensors will still alarm to the fire but at a
reduced sensitivity and slower response time.
Dual microprocessors provide a high level of fail-safe operation combined
with fast and reliable performance. The Master Microprocessor performs high-
speed digital sampling and signal-processing calculations; while the slave
microprocessor handles various sensor data, performs communications, self-
diagnostics and provides interface versatility; and additional memory for storing
Event Log and FirePicTM data.
The Fire Sentry FSX family of detectors feature our patented* FirePic data
storage and information retrieval facility. FirePicTM records pre-fire data, which
can be recovered from the Detector’s non-volatile flash memory for post fire
analysis and postulation of the fire cause. Additionally, unique Real-Time
Graphing (RTGTM) allows viewing of the data which the Detector actually sees.
A combination of outputs makes the Fire Sentry FS24X a truly versatile detector
for today’s demanding industrial requirements.
The Fire Sentry FS24X detector has a detection range greater than 200 feet
(Very High Sensitivity setting) for the detection of a one square-foot Heptane
reference fire and has a cone of vision far greater in volumetric coverage than
any other Multi-Spectrum IR Detector. This means fewer Detectors can be used
as compared to other manufacturers’ Detectors.
