Offshore platforms and FPSOs, onshore oil refineries, processing plants, pipelines, storage farms and LPG/LNG plants all utilize or produce a wide range of hazardous flammable liquids and gases that can be detected by the Spectrex flame and gas detectors.

Loading Stations

Petrochemicals and liquified gases have to be shipped from a processing plant or storage farm and be offloaded at loading stations in either gas, liquid or compressed form - all of which are highly combustible and a major hazard to any equipment or people working in or living close to these areas.

Aviation

SharpEye Triple IR (IR3) Optical Flame Detector allows the aircraft hangar designers to meet military and commercial requirements for reliable fire detection with improved immunity to false alarms and wider coverage of the protected area.
