for
Coal Conveyor Fire Protection
 IH 153ES-P-AC-DC
IR Ember Detector with Air purging unit
 INTRODUCTION

If a smoldering coal or embers are introduced due to spontaneous

combustion onto a conveyor during a loading and unloading operation, it

is every possibility to be conveyed to a transfer point, crusher or silo or

bunker.

At such places hot coal may ignite combustible dust accumulations and

may lead to large scale Fire incident.

Critical Equipment losses, production loss, property loss, loss of human

life are need not to be elaborated.

Coal Conveyer Fire Protection is very much essential and important.

 BASIC CONCEPT
Infra Red Ember Detector are used to detect hot moving spots
on the conveyor before they reach processing machinery or
storage hoppers and initiate alarm and Fire Extinguishing
arrangement.

PRINCIPLE OF DETECTION

Hot Carbon Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide produced by the

Coal Ember is emitting Infra Red radiation. IR Sensor in the
Detector responds when the Ember enters the sensor filed of
view.
 PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Agni Controls is pioneer in IR Technology.

Our IR Spark & Ember are widely used in Machinery Protection

especially in Textile Industries for last 25 years.

More than 8000 Nos. of IR Spark/Ember Detectors are in operation.

fladet - IH153ES Infra Red Ember Detectors are specially designed to

detect moving ember with 90 Deg. Cone view.

Detector is designed with four independent Infra Red Sensors and

special electronic logic analysis is used to give the best result.

IH 153ES IR Detector with IP 67 protection is well suitable for dusty

environments.
 IH153ES

fladet IH 153ES IR Detector with unique features makes the detector

user friendly and least maintenance requirement.

Flashing Green LED indicates healthiness of the Detector 4 wire

system 2 wire for Input Supply and 2 wire suitable to connect any
Standard Fire Alarm Zone / PLC/ Annunciation.

No Separate Control Panel is required. Any Annunciation or PLC or

fire Alarm Panel can be used.
 IH153ES (Cont.)

Air Purging provision makes cleaning very simple. By connecting

existing instrument air, the Glass surface can be cleaned either by
simple manual method or by automatic arrangement as per site
requirement. Dedicated separate air source also can be incorporated.

IH 323 Air Purging Unit is Stand Alone Provided with Air Blower

operated on 230 V AC. ‘ON’ Manual, ‘OFF’ Automatic

 IH153ES – SENSITIVITY SELECTION

The IH153ES has the following additional features,

1. Very High Sensitivity

2. High Sensitivity
3. Normal Sensitivity
4. Low Sensitivity

The above sensitivity selection can be done at site as per the

requirement.
 IH153ES
The Detector is cost effective because of the above referred flexibility.
Simple mounting bracket with tilting arrangement is used to easy
field erection and maintenance
Spectral Filter is 3000-14000 nm.
Because of the critical spectral range it is ineffective to sunlight, other
lights.
Cone of Vision is 90 Deg. which makes wider coverage.
Wider Range of operating Temperature (-20Deg.C to 60 Deg. C) and Input
supply voltage 24 V DC+/-20% ensure proper detection performance.
Non ferrous Rugged enclosure suitable for dusty and windy
environment with IP 67 protection.
 DETECTOR POSITION

RECOMMENDED MOUNTING ARRANGEMENT

FOR IH153ES IR EMBER DETECTOR
 DETECTOR POSITION
๏ Detector should be mounted on the conveyor hood or gantry structure
looking down at the coal being transparent.
๏ Detector will detect 100 Sq. cm glowing coal ember at the distance of
3 ft.
๏ Detector cone of angle is 90 Deg. across the belt. It is recommend to
mount the Detector at a height equal to half width of the conveyor.
๏ For increased sensitivity two Detectors are recommended if the width
is more than 2 meters.
๏ It is recommended to a minimum of two Infrared Ember Detector for
each conveyor.
๏ In normal practice close to the tail pulley one set of Detectors and
close to Head pulley, another set of Detectors may be located.
๏ These detectors shall be wired as separate zone in the control panel.
