You are about to watch a comparison detection and extinguishing test of a 1x1ft gasoline pan fire in a crew compartment of a combat vehicle.
The first system (Stryker) incorporates dual IR optical sensors. The second system (Spectrex) incorporates UV/IR optical detectors.
Things to notice:
| The first system (Stryker) | The second system (Spectrex) |
| The dual IR based detectors did not respond to 1x1ft gasoline pan fire. Manual extinguishing by covering the flame was required | The UV/IR based detection system reacts instantaneously, detects the 1x1ft fire and activates the extinguishing |
