filtersconfiguredformaximumsensitivitytoradiationproducedbyflameorfireand
ensuresrapidflamerecognitionandalarmsignaling.TheIPES‐IR/UVhasafieldofview
ofnotlessthan90degrees.Uponfirerecognition,itsignalsachangeinstatefrom
normaloperationtofireinanyoriginalequipmentmanufacturersOEMorproprietary
alarmandresponsesystem.
Viaintegratedinfrared(IR)andultraviolet(UV)sensorstheIPES‐IR/UVmonitorsin
specificregionsofbothspectralranges.Intheinfraredspectrum,thedeviceis
configuredforsensitivitytowavelengthsintherangeof4.2to4.6microns,allowing
optimalsensitivitytohydrocarbonfires,andothertypessuchasmetalfireswhile
rejectingfalsesignalsfromincandescentlamps,sunlightandhotobjects.Forultraviolet
radiation,thedeviceisconfiguredforsensitivityintherangeof180to250nanometers,
makingthesensor“blind”tosunlightandradiationfromheatedobjectsbutstillableto

andalarmsfromthosecharacteristicwavelengthemissionsfromtheIR‐to‐UVspectrum
thatindicateactualflameorfire.
ThecombinationofmultiplesensorsandwavelengthrangesettingsmakestheIPES‐
IR/UVanexcellentchoiceforeliminationoffalsepositiveindicatorscausedbynon‐flame

BeforeinstallingandoperatingtheIPES‐IR/UV,besuretoread
thisentiremanual.Failuretofollowtheseguidelinescouldresult
inimpairedproductperformanceandsafetyhazards.
GuidelinesFormaximumsafety:
Onlypersonswhohavethoroughlyreadandunderstoodthismanual,aretrainedin
safetytechniques,andhaveelectric‐safetycertificatesarepermittedtoinstalland
operatetheIPES‐IR/UV.
NeveroperatetheIPES‐IR/UVifthecasingisdamaged.
DonotseparatetheIPES‐IR/UVwhenenergized.
RefertotheAppendicesanddiagramsinthismanualtoensurethatthewiringisin
compliancewithlocalordinancesandtheNEC.
PerformregulartestingandmaintenanceasoutlinedintheMaintenancesection.
Ensurethatfire‐alarmandfire‐extinguishingsystemsandcontrolsareswitchedoff
beforeanytestingormaintenancetoavoidunwantedoperationofalarmsandfire‐
extinguishingequipment.

signal:
Magnitudeofsignalsfromdifferentopticalchannels
Ratiosbetweenthesignalamplitudesofdifferentchannels
Signalmodulationfrequency

EliminationofFalse
Alarms

ThecombinationofmultiplesensorsandwavelengthrangesettingsmakestheIPES‐IR/UVan
excellentchoiceforeliminationoffalsepositiveindicatorscausedbynon‐flamesourcesof
radiationsuchasartificiallighting,directandindirectsunlight,lightning,arcweldingand
metalgrinding.
Seeadditionalimportantconsiderationsforeliminatingfalsealarmsinsection3.0Safety.
AnAlarmconditionwillnormallyoverrideaFaultconditionunlessalossofoperatingpower
impairsthedetector’sabilitytogenerateormaintainanalarm.TheIPES‐IR/UVreportsboth
FaultandAlarmconditionsexclusiveofeachother.ThismeansbothaFireandFaultcanbe
reportedatthesametimeiftheyoccursimultaneously.
Serviceability

TheIPES‐IR/UVremainsserviceableinnon‐heatedroomsorundershedsattemperatures
from–40°Fto+185°F(–40°to+85°C).
LEDNormal,FireandFaultconditionsareindicatedbytworedLEDslocatedonthecover.Referto
Table4‐1:DeterminingLEDConditions,below.
OpticalIntegrityTomaintainreliabilityoftheIPES,theopticaldevicesareautomaticallyself‐testedfor
radiationtransmissionevery25to45minutes.Thisroutinetestdoesnotrequiretheuseofa
testlamp.Thistestdetermineswhetheranydustorothercontaminationhasformedonthe

ComponentParts
andDeliverySet
TheIPES‐IR/UVdetectorcomponentpartsanddeliverysetconsistsofthefollowing:
OneIPES‐IR/UVDetectorwithonemountingbase.
(10010‐001/10011‐001StainlessSteelor10010‐002/10011‐002Aluminum)
OneOperatingManual80010‐001
AccessoryKit(bolts,nuts,washers,etc.).RefertoAppendixA‐1,Drawing80025‐001,for
furtherdetails.
Optionalmagneticcollar(deliveredonlybyspecialrequest).
Comparethecontentsofthesettothepackinglisttobesureallitemswerereceived.Ifany
itemsaremissing,contactESPSafetyInc.
VisualExaminationBeforeinstallingtheIPES‐IR/UV,examinethedetectortobesurethat:
Thenameplatesandwarninglabelsareinplace.
Theexternalsurfacesoftheelementsandjoinedsurfacesofthecasingarefreeofdents
ordamage.(RefertoAppendixA1,Drawing80033‐001,andAppendixA2,Drawing
80025‐001.)
Thetamper‐proofscrewisintactonthefrontcover(SeeAppendixA2,Drawing80025‐

Pre‐Installation
Steps
Makesureallremovablepartsarejoinedtothecasingastightlyaspossible.
Warning:Donotopen,separateordisassemblecasingwhen
energized!Separatingthecasingcanresultinseriousdamageto
thedetectorwhichcouldgoundetected,resultinginfailureto
detectfires.

InstallationPositioningtheDetector
1. Positionthedetectortoprovideanunobstructedviewoftheareatobeprotected.The
detector’s90°viewingangleismostsensitivealongthecentralaxis;therefore,position
thecentralaxissothatithasthebestunobstructedviewoftheplaceofprobablefire.
Uselineofsightorlaserlevelformoreprecisetargeting.
2. Identifyallhighriskfiresources,todeterminethenumberofdetectorsneededfor
adequatecoverage.
3. Locatethedetector(s)foreaseofcleaningandservicing.Ensurethatprobablefire
sourcesarewithinthedetector(s)fieldofviewanddetectionrange.
4. Wheninstallingmultipledetectorsinthesamearea,beawareofoverlappingfieldsof
viewanddetectorhierarchy.Overlappingfieldsofviewcanbeusedtoprovideadditional
protectionagainstfalsepositivesorfalsenegatives,dependingonthecontrolsystem
logicconnectedtothedetectors.
Note:Tomitigatefalsepositives,positionthedetectorsothatitsfieldofviewdoesnot
coveranyareasoutsidethehazardousarea.
5. Mountthedetectoronarigidsurfacewhichminimizesvibrations.Usethemounting
hardwareprovidedalongwiththerubberbushingstofurtherisolatethedetectorfrom

Note:ESPSafetyInc.recommendsboltingthemountingbaseplatetothemounting
surface.Ifboltingisnotpossible,themountingplatecanbeweldedtothemounting
surfaceifitisasimilarmetal(either316StainlessSteelor6061aluminum).Before
welding,besuretoremovethedetectorfromthebaseplatebeforeattemptinganyweld
operation.
MoistureDamageProtection
Itistheresponsibilityoftheinstallertotakeproperprecautionsduringinstallationto
protecttheelectricalconnectionsandcomponentsfrommoisture.
Anti‐seizelubricantisprovidedforeasyassemblyandcorrosionprotectionofthejoints
betweentheenclosure/coverandenclosure/base.Afterdisassembly,wipethese
surfacescleanwithasoftcottonorwoolclothandthenre‐applyathinlayeroflubricant
priortoassembly.SeeAppendixA2(Drawing80025‐001,Sheet1).
Ifinstallingwiringcableinconduit,donotuseconduitforwiringtootherequipment.
Careshouldbetakentonotinstallthedetectorwhereheavycondensate,rain,orfogcan
coverthelensandreducethesensitivityofthedetector.
Ifpossible,conductfireteststoconfirmdetection.
Caution:Allcable/conduitentriesmustbesealedwithan
appropriateandcertifiedsealingplugandcablegland.Theuseof
industrialgrade,armoredfieldcableisrecommended.
