Explosion-proof | Explosion prevention with GSME and HOTSPOT
In addition to the grounding monitoring system and spark extinguishing system, the GSME series and HOTSPOT series detectors significantly contribute to the improvement of explosion-proof safety.
▶ Prevention of Explosions and Fires Equipment that poses a risk of dust explosions often has active explosion prevention measures in place, especially since ignition sources are frequently unavoidable. In addition to static electricity and mechanically generated sparks, the most common ignition sources include glowing embers, open flames, and high-temperature surfaces. In addition to grounding monitoring systems and spark extinguishing systems, the new GSME series and HOTSPOT series detectors significantly enhance explosion safety. Detectors from both series are designed to detect combustion reactions and heat sources that could ultimately become ignition sources for explosions at an early stage. ▶ Applications The HOTSPOT thermal imaging detector and the compact gas detection detector GSME are specifically designed for the early detection of heat surfaces and fires in dust handling equipment such as silos, dryers, mills, conveyors, and dust collectors.
basic information
▶ Organization Based on proven multi-criteria technology using semiconductors, GMSE enables early detection of smoldering and embers in various types of emergencies, whether latent or manifest. The sensor elements of the detectors are protected from dust and moisture intrusion by a unique diffusion filter technology. HOTSPOT is an infrared camera system with built-in signal evaluation that allows for flexible parameter settings. In addition to process monitoring applications, it is particularly suitable for detecting overheated plant components and smoldering. Like the GSME detector, HOTSPOT is also protected from moisture and dust intrusion due to its robust construction. Both detectors are specially designed for use in hazardous areas up to Zone 20 and are certified by both ATEX and IECEx. ▶ Benefits of Use ▸ Explosion prevention through detection of smoldering and initial fires (GSME) ▸ Detection of smoldering, flames, and high-temperature surfaces with HOTSPOT. ▸ Excellent moisture and dust resistance due to unique diffusion filter technology ▸ Certification by ATEX and IECEx ▸ Integrated explosion protection concept by integrating the detectors into the REMBE EXKOP Express control system
