Personnel injury and costly business interruptions are also likely. Factory Mutual requires electro-optical flame detectors in the semiconductor wet benches to monitor for fire. These flame detectors must be suitable for the hostile chemicals used in the etching process (such as hydrofluoric, sulfuric, and hydrochloric acids). Furthermore, they must be tested and approved for fire response to FR polypropylene now used in the construction of wet benches as well as other fuels such as isopropyl alcohol. The Model 3200 easily adapts to most standard fire extinguishing systems and wet bench systems. It utilizes relay output for alarm and trouble and does not require special controllers or wiring / junction boxes. The Model 3200 Flame Detector uses proven, stable UV/IR technology to continuously monitor for flame in wet bench applications. Using state-of-the-art microprocessor controlled fire algorithms, the Model 3200 can recognize different types of flame signatures while Model 3200 Dimensions Field of View Model 3200 Series Wet Bench Flame Detector rejecting common false alarms. Continuous self diagnostics perform tests of the detector operation. Each flame detector is tested to respond to a 4-inch diameter isopropyl alcohol (IPA) fire at 10 feet with a 120o field of view. The standard Model 3200 has a sealed polypropylene housing designed to an IEC 529 IP67 rating for protection from a wide variety of acids and solvents. Thus occasional submersion by these chemicals will not damage the detector. The detector is rated over a wide operating temperature range for those applications where drying or heating elements are used. A version utilizing Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) is also available.
