Minimax UniVario Flame & Heat Detection Products

UniVario FMX5000 IR is an extremely robust three-channel infrared flame detector with three-way optical test. Despite the disturbance sources typical for industrial applications, the UniVario FMX5000 IR is extremely fast at detecting flames. Hot machine surfaces, direct sun radiation in exterior surroundings, and welding operations are filtered by a special sensor combination and intelligent processing, while at the same time even the very small flames of an emerging fire are reliably detected and signaled as an alarm. With its three-way optical test, whereby all three sensors as well as the optical detector window are monitored, the UniVario FMX5000 IR is extremely failsafe.

UniVario FMX5000 UV is a flame detector with spectral responsiveness in the ultraviolet range. The flame detector FMX5000 UV reacts to optical radiation and analyzes specific wavelengths. It is installed wherever open flames are likely to develop quickly. Its perfect combination of early detection, high sensitivity, reliability, and the lowest possible risk of false alarms caused by thunderstorms, hot surfaces, or strong solar radiation make the UniVario fire detector indispensable for preventing the rapid spread of fires.

UniVario WMX5000 FS is a high-temperature detector with a robust decoupled stainless-steel heat sensor.

The WMX5000 FS heat detector is specially designed to work in temperatures of up to 1544° F. Its heat sensor enables simple and flexible installation. A microcontroller monitors the function and analyzes temperature values. With its tough, sealed housing, the WMX5000 FS can be used in all sorts of scenarios. Optimum results are provided even when subjected to extreme temperature fluctuations, heavy soiling, and aggressive conditions. The heat sensor comes in different designs. The alarm temperature and response behavior are programmable, making them suitable for a host of applications.

UniVario WMX5000 is a heat detector with stainless steel heat sensor designed for applications where temperatures are increasing rapidly, such as in the case of highly combustible solids, liquids, and gases. It responds instantaneously to any rapid rise in temperature or as soon as a pre-programmed temperature is exceeded. It offers a number of different installation options, making it suitable for monitoring rooms as well as processes. It has been designed specifically with challenging industrial environments in mind, including indoor and outdoor risks and for potentially hazardous areas.

The modular UniVario YMX5000 detector system consists of a control unit with three connectors and remote sensor units for fast flame detection. The system meets the individual requirements of a wide range of applications. It is ideally suited for limited installation space in harsh industrial environments. The sensor units check the optics periodically for possible contamination or damage – a unique characteristic that increases operational safety. Each sensor unit is fitted with replaceable optics which is easily and quickly removable. This considerably simplifies maintenance.
