1INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview
The SharpEye 40/40I is a flame detector that utilizes improved IR3 technology to provide
state-of-the-art fire protection. The 40/40I uses patented digital signal processing to
analyze the spectral and dynamic characteristics of the infrared radiation, to identify fire
events with exceptional sensitivity and extreme immunity to false alarms.
All 40/40 series detectors include a heated optical window for improved performance in
icing, snow and condensation conditions.
Detection performance can be easily adapted to all environments, applications and
requirements, by changing the detector’s configuration parameters. Adjusting these
parameters, as well and performing other maintenance and monitoring tasks, is possible by
means of RS485-based Modbus communication or HART communication (in models with
0-20mA output).
The detector enclosure is ATEX certified EExd flameproof with an integral, segregated,
rear, EExe terminal compartment (avoiding exposure of the sensors and electronics to
surrounding environment). Hence the combined approval EExde IIB + H2 T5 (75°C) or
T4 (85°C).
The SharpEye 40/40 detectors are designed to operate as a stand-alone unit directly
connected to an alarm system or an automatic fire extinguishing system. The detector can
also be a part of a more complex system, where many detectors and other devices are
integrated through a common control unit.
1.2 Model and Types
The 40/40I is provided in various configurations depending on:
•Wiring options
•Temperature ranges
•Type of cable entries
•Housing type

1.4 Principles of Operation
1.4.1 Hydrocarbon Fire Detection
The SharpEye 40/40I detector is designed to detect flames in which carbon dioxide (CO2)
is produced in the combustion process. These include all hydrocarbon flames, as well as
other types of flames and burning materials such as wood or alcohol.
The detector’s principle of operation is based on patented IR3 technology. This
technology identifies the unique spectral signature that hot CO2has in the infrared (IR),
namely a peak of the intensity at wavelengths 4.2 to 4.7µ.
The original IR3 technique (such as implemented in the SharpEye 20/20I flame detector)
utilizes three infrared sensors, each sensitive to its own wavelength range. The first sensor
is sensitive to wavelengths within the emission peak of hot CO2. The other two sensorsare
sensitive to wavelengths above and below this peak. In the event of fire, the signal
measured in the first sensor is significantly higher than those measured in the other two
sensors. In order to issue a fire alarm, the detector requires that this occurs, as well as
other conditions (for example, radiation is flickering in frequencies typical of flames). If
exposed to non-fire radiation sources, the specific conditions required does not occur, and
the detector does not react.
The SharpEye 40/40I further includes an additional IR sensor, sensitive to a different band
within the emission peak of hot CO2. The signal of this sensor is compared to those of the
other three. This increases sensitivity for some types of flames. (For example, gas flames).
1.4.2 HeatedOptics
The SharpEye 40/40 Flame Detectors use heated optics. The heater increases the
temperature of the optical surface by 5-8°F (~3-5°C) above the ambient temperature to
improve performance in icing, condensation and snow conditions.

12
The heated optics can be set to one of the following:
•Not operated
•On continuously
•Automatic, per temperature change (default): you can define the start temperature
below which the window is heated. (The default is 68°F (20°C).) This temperature can
be defined between 32°F (0°C) to 122°F (50°C). The heating stops when the
temperature is 27°F (15°C) above the start temperature.
For more information, see Configuring your Detector on page 29.
1.4.3 HART Protocol
The 40/40 Flame Detectors use the HART Protocol.
HART Communication is a bi-directional industrial field communication protocol used to
communicate between intelligent field instruments and host systems. HART is the global
standard for smart process instrumentation and the majority of smart field devices
installed in plants worldwide are HART-enabled.
HART technology is easy to use and very reliable.
Through the HART connection, you are able to perform:
•Detector set-up
•Detector troubleshooting
•Detector health and status
For more details, refer to the HART Manual TM 777030.
1.4.4 RS-485 Modbus
For more advanced communications, the 40/40 detector has an RS 485 Modbus-
compatible output that provides data communication from a network (up to 247 detectors)
to a host computer or universal controller for central monitoring. This feature allows for
reduced installation costs, easy maintenance and local or remote diagnostic tools.
1.4.5 Product Certification
1.4.5.1ATEX, IECEx
The 40/40I Flame Detector is certified to:
•ATEX Ex II 2 GD per SIRA 07ATEX 1149 and IECEx SIR. 07.0085.

3.5.12.
The alert condition according to SIL-2 can be implemented by:
•Alert signal via 0-20mA current loop.
or
•Alert signal via alarm relay and fault relay.
•For more details and guidelines for configuring, installing, operating and service –see
SIL-2Features on page 48 and TÜV Report No. 968/EZ326.00/008.
1.4.5.4EN54-10
The 40/40I Flame Detector is certified to EN54-10 and CPD.
•The detector has been tested and approved per EN54-10 by LPCB (BRE, UK).
•This test includes functional test, environmental test, EMI/EMC test and software
check.
•For more details see EN54-10 Report No. TE243256.
1.5 Performance Considerations
1.5.1 Detection Sensitivity
Detection sensitivity is the maximum distance at which the detector reliably detects a
specific size of fire and typical type of fuel (standard fire).
1.5.1.1Standard Fire
Defined as a 1ft2/ 0.1m2n-heptane, with maximum wind speed of 6.5 ft/sec (2 m/sec).
1.5.1.2Sensitivity Ranges
The detector has four user-selectable sensitivity ranges. For each range there are two
response levels.
•WARNING (Pre-alarm)
•ALARM
The detection distance, for the WARNING level, is approximately 10% higher than the
ALARM distance.
Alarm response times for a standard fire at a specified range are shown figure 2
Table 2: Sensitivity Range Levels
Level Response Time (sec) Sensitivity Range-ft (m)
1350 (15)
2 Default 5100 (30)
38150 (45)
410 215 (65)
For some typical ambient conditions the Zeta parameter as defined in NFPA 72 for the
detector is 0.005 (1/meter).
Note: Zeta parameters may vary significantly with changes in temperature, air pressure,
humidity, visibility conditions, and so on.

14
1.5.1.3Other Fuels
The detector reacts to other types of fire as follows:
•The baseline fire refers to n-heptane 1ft2(0.1m2) and is defined as 100% sensitivity.
•For fuel fire –standard pan fire size: 1 ft2(0.1 m2).
•For gas flame -20 inch (0.5m) high, 8 inch (0.2m) width plume fire.
•Maximum Response Time: 10 sec.

Notes:
1The alarm outputs are activated while alarm conditions exist and will stop
approximately 5 seconds after the fire is no longer detected.
2The Alarm state can be optionally latched via programmed function. (Default is non-
latching).
3The detector will remain in BIT Fault state until it has passed a successful BIT.
4The Auxiliary Relay can be activated at the Warning level or Alarm level, depending
on programmed function.
5The outputs depend on the wiring options.
1.5.6.1Optional Latching
Alarms are set as non-latching by default. However, the detector includes a latched alarm
output capability, which operates according to the programmed function.
If selected, upon detection of a fire, the detection signal is latched until a manual reset is
performed (disconnecting the power supply or performing a manual BIT (see ManualBIT
on page 20).
Latching affects the Alarm Relay, 0-20mA output, the Alarm LED (the Auxiliary Relay
will be latched only when the programmable function Auxiliary Relay is set to YES.
Notes:
•The Auxiliary Relay is available only in Model 40/40I –4XXXX and 5XXXX
•The 0-20mA is available only in Model 40/40I –1XXXX, 2XXXX, 3XXXX
1.5.7 Auxiliary Relay as End-of-Line Resistor
The Auxiliary Relay can be used as End-of-Line (EOL) resistance in Model 40/40I-
4XXXX, and 5XXXX only. In this case, the Auxiliary Relay is active as long as the
detector is not in Fault state.

1.6 Internal Detector Tests
The detector performs two types of self tests:
•Continuous Feature Test, page 19
•Built-In-Test (BIT), page 19
1.6.1 Continuous Feature Test
During normal operation, the detector tests itself continuously and indicates a fault if a
failure is found. This type of test complies with SIL-2 requirements.
The detector continuously tests:
•Input voltage level
•All internal regulator voltage level
•Voltage level status of sensor and sensor circuitry for noise or disconnection in the
electronic circuitry
•0-20mA level output
•Relays and heater operation
•Processor Watch dog
•Software
•Memory
•Oscillator frequency
Response to Fault Indication
If a failure is found, the detector indicates by:
•Fault relay:
•Opens in wiring option 1, 2, and 4
•Closes in wiring option 3 and 5
•0-20mA: indicates Fault (0mA or 2mA) in wiring option 1, 2, 3
•LED –Yellow flashes (4 Hz)
Correcting the Fault
The fault indications remain until the detector’s power is removed. The fault indications
return if the fault is still found when power is restored.
1.6.2 Built-In-Test (BIT)
The detector’s Built-In-Test (BIT) also checks the following:
•Electronics circuitry
•Sensors
•Window cleanliness
The detector can be set to perform the BIT in the following modes:
•Automatically and manually
•Manually only
Note: In Manual BIT, the outputs may also be tested and Control System ‘inhibit’ should
be applied if this could initiate other systems.

20
1.6.2.1How the BIT Operates
•The detector's status remains unchanged if the result of a BIT is the same as the
current status (NORMAL or BIT Fault)
•the detectors’ status is changed (from Normal to BIT Fault or vice versa) if the BIT
differs from the current status
Note: In ‘BIT Fault’ status the detector can continue to detect a fire.
1.6.2.2Automatic BIT
The detector automatically performs a BIT every 15 minutes. A successful BIT sequence
does not activate any indicator.
The results of a successful and unsuccessful BIT are listed in
Table 10 and
Table 11.
Table 10: Results of a Successful BIT
Output Result

•Wiring option 3 and 5: changes to Closed
0-20mA output Wiring option 1, 2, 3: BIT Fault (2mA)
Power LED Yellow, Flashing, 4 Hz
BIT procedure Performed every 1 minute
1.6.2.3Manual BIT
The BIT is manually initiated by momentarily connecting Terminal 3 with Terminal 2 (or
a switch across these terminals in the safe area).
If the BIT is unsuccessful, all outputs will function as described for Automatic BIT, but
the BIT is now automatically executed every 1 minute. This continues until a successful
BIT occurs, when the detector will resume normal operation.
The results of a successful and unsuccessful Manual BIT are listed in Table 12 and Table
13.

Terminal Number 2 or a switch across these terminals in the safe area.
2INSTALLING THE DETECTOR
This chapter provides basic guidelines for installing the detector. It does not attempt to
cover all of the standard practices and codes of installation. Rather, it emphasizes specific
points of consideration and provides some general rules for qualified personnel. Wherever
applicable, special safety precautions are stressed.
2.1 General Guidelines
To ensure optimal performance and an efficient installation, consider the following
guidelines:
•Sensitivity: To determine the level of sensitivity, consider the following:
•Size of fire at the required distance to be detected
•Type of flammable materials
•Spacing and Location: The number of detectors and their locations in the protected
area are determined by:
•Size of the protected area
•Sensitivity of the detectors
•Obstructed lines of sight
•Cone of view of the detectors
