ADICOS HOTSPOT-Ex IR Heat Detector Instruction Manual
ADICOS HOTSPOT-Ex IR Heat Detector

Abstract

The Advanced Discovery System (ADICOS®) is used for early detection of fires in industrial environments. It is comprised of various, separate detector units. By parameterizing and arranging the detectors appropriately, the system fulfills a predefined detection goal. The ADICOS system ensures reliable early detection of embers and smoldering fires even in adverse environments.

The detectors of the HOTSPOT product series are equipped with thermal imaging sensors and use infrared measurement technology and intelligent signal analysis to detect all types of smoldering fires and open fires, even in the incipient stage. The fast response speed of 100 milliseconds enables the monitoring of conveyor belts or other conveyor systems, e.g. on moving embers.

ADICOS HOTSPOT-Ex detectors are designed for operation within explosive atmospheres up to ATEX zone 20.

When using ADICOS detectors in potentially explosive atmospheres, follow the specifications of the ATEX operating directive.

Intended Use

ADICOS HOTSPOT-Ex are designated for the detection of fire scenarios in explosive atmospheres of ATEX zone 20, 21 and 22. In this context, the operating parameters described in Chap. 9, »Technical Data« must be met. Any deviating use requires prior consultation with the manufacturer.

Compliance with this manual as well as all applicable country-specific provisions is also part of the intended use.

Standards and Regulations

The safety and accident prevention regulations applicable for the specific application must be observed during detector installation, commissioning, maintenance, and test. The following standards and directives in their current version are of particular importance when handling potentially explosive atmospheres:

Standards and Regulations Description
EN IEC 60079-0:2018/ AC: 2020-02 Explosive atmospheres – Part 0: Equipment – General requirements
EN 60079-31:2014 Explosive atmospheres – Part 31: Equipment dust ignition protection by enclosure „t“
EN 60529 Degrees of protection provided by enclosures (IP Code)
2014/34/EU ATEX product directive (about equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres)
1999/92/EG ATEX operating directive (on safety and health protection of workers potentially at risk from explosive atmospheres)
Personnel Qualification

Any work on ADICOS HOTSPOT-Ex may only be performed by qualified personnel. Persons, who can perform work on electrical systems and recognize possible dangers based on their professional education, knowledge, and experience as well as knowledge of the applicable provisions, are considered qualified personnel.

Warning icon WARNING!

Personal injury and property damage! Improperly performed work on and with the device can lead to malfunctions.

Installation, startup, parameterization and maintenance may be performed only by authorized and properly trained personnel.

Handling Electrical Voltage

Warning icon DANGER!

Risk of explosion by electrical voltage in potentially explosive atmospheres!
The electronics of ADICOS HOTSPOT-Ex detectors requires an electrical voltage that can trigger an explosion in potentially explosive atmospheres.

  • Do not open enclosure!
  • De-energize the entire detector system and secure against unintentionally reactivation for all wiring work!
Modifications

Warning icon WARNING!

Property damage or detector failure by any form of unauthorized modification!

Any form of unauthorized modification or extension can lead to a failure of the detector system. The warranty claim expires.

Never make unauthorized modifications on your own authority.

Accessories and Spare Parts

WARNING!

Property damage due to short circuit or failure of the detector system The use of parts other than the manufacturer’s original spare parts and original accessories may result in property damage due to short circuits.

  • Only use original spare parts and original accessories!
  • Original spare parts and accessories may only be installed by trained specialist personnel.
  • Qualified personnel are persons as described in Chap. 2.3.
