OVERVIEW

Overview

The Honeywell Analytics FSL100 series of Flame Detectors comprises three models:

 FSL100-IR3 Triple Infrared flame detector
 FSL100-UV Ultraviolet flame detector
 FSL100-UVIR Ultraviolet and Infrared flame detector

These flame detectors monitor an area by looking for the presence of invisible infrared or ultraviolet light that occur outside the
frequency range occupied by visible flames, and they can do this in the presence of interference (sunlight, smoke, dust, vapour
etc.) to determine whether or not a fire is actually present within their field of view.

All three detectors utilize a microprocessor for sophisticated electronic signal analysis. Detectors with IR sensors also analyse
the flame flicker effect. The Triple IR flame detector uses this method to give highly reliable nuisance alarm rejection and is also
less affected by optical contamination and smoke than are UV based flame detectors.

The diagram below shows the spread of invisible UV/IR radiation that is available for sampling outside the human visual range,
and shows how a UV/IR detector can be potentially 1 million times more sensitive than a human eye.

Frequency (Hz) Wavelength

Figure 1. Comparison of Visible Radiation Range to UV/IR Radiation Range

Note: Monitoring a fire zone (i.e. a fume chamber) through its glass or acrylic walls could reduce or defeat the sensitivity of

certain types of flame detector.
For example, plain glass and acrylic are known to block IR but may transmit UV, whereas coated materials may block both.

Mechanical Installation

This chapter describes the mechanical requirements for installing FSL100 Series Flame Detectors. Electrical
installation is discussed in the next chapter.

4.1 Siting

The number, type and placement of fire detectors and alarm control systems should be determined in consultation with
Honeywell Analytics specialist technical advisors and Site specialists.

Remember that the FSL100 series are flame detectors only; they cannot detect flammable gas or dust atmospheres. Please
contact Honeywell Analytics if you need a flammable atmosphere detection system.

Generally speaking, one or more FSL100 flame detectors should be positioned on walls or posts above the monitored object or
area, and they should overlap so that shadow areas cannot occur (see diagrams that follow).

4.2 Mounting and Orientation

In this chapter a number of general guidelines are given for the flame detector system design. Several of these guidelines are
discussed in more detail in the following chapters.

4.3 Installing the FSL100 Flame Detectors

There are 2 options for installing the FSL100 series of Flame Detectors:

1. You can use the optional Swivel Mount to mount them on walls, ceilings or posts (see Ch.10 FSL100-SM21 Swivel Mount).

2. You can mount them directly to a ceiling (i.e. in a fume chamber or in an engine room) or inside ducting.
Use the measurements below for mounting, remembering to allow clearance for the cables.

4.4 Cone of Vision

The FSL100 flame detector has a cone of vision of 90° so it can monitor an area extending from floor to ceiling and
extending to approximately 23 m (FSL100-UV and UVIR) or 35 m (FLS100-IR3).

4.5 Shadow Effect

Figure 3. Cone of View

If monitoring a solid object, the mounting height (hd) of the flame detector should be at least twice the height (ho) of the highest
object in the monitored zone:

Detector height (hd) = 2 x height of the highest object (ho) Shadow effect

Figure 4. Shadow Effect

INSTALLATION

MAN0987_Iss 2_09/16

FSL100 Series Flame Detectors

Technical Handbook

To avoid the shadow effect (in zones that cannot be fully monitored by a solo flame detector) place a second flame detector in
the opposite corner.

Figure 6. Shadow Cancelling

4.6 Mounting Below a Ceiling

Smoke rises and can form a layer at ceiling height long before naked flames are visible. Dense smoke can block some of the
wavelengths of light given off by flames, and this can ultimately decrease the sensitivity and speed of the flame detector.

To avoid the risk of smoke blocking their fields of view, you should mount the FSL100-IR3 flame detectors at least 0.5 m (2 ft),
and the FSL100-UV and FSL100-UVIR detectors at least 1.5m (6 ft), below the ceiling (see dimension ‘D’ below).

Figure 7. Mounting Clearance

Caution

Reducing the height of a detector above the monitored item will increase the size of shadow areas, so a
minimum of two detectors will be required to cover the shadows. See Shadow Effect explanation above.

4.7 Vote Count

FSL100 flame detectors will not give an alarm until several different alarm criteria occur at the same time, and the probability of
a false alarm is very low. The flame detector is therefore suitable for relay activated actions (i.e. drenching) based on the signal
of one flame detector.

However, ‘voting’ may be demanded in a functional specification, in which case the ‘voting-system’ may be applied; i.e., the
flame detectors may be mounted in multiples, as shown in the example below where an alarm output would be dependent on
the controller receiving confirmatory alarm inputs from at least two of the available detectors.

Figure 8. Voting Arrangement Using Four Detectors

A good example of voting would be in a Server room or process room that uses inert gas drenching to replace oxygen in the
atmosphere, and the voting of any 2 out of the 4 flame detectors should be mandated before the relay output can be triggered.

Note: The fire control panel or PLC must be able to support the two detector voting system.

Caution

A flame detector is a line of sight detector so voting with just two flame detectors in not reliable. The redundant
flame detector in the opposite corner cannot be used for a 2 detector dependent output because a flame
occurring in a shadow area would not be seen by the second detector until the fire is well established. In this
case the second flame detector will give an alarm too late or not at all.

4.8 Weather Protection

It is recommended to place a hood or shield above the flame detector to protect it from sunlight, rain and snow. A stainless steel
metal plate of approximately 30 x 30 cm (12 x 12 in) can be mounted directly above the flame detector without inhibiting its field
of view. A similar plate can be used to shield it from potential false alarm sources such as smoke-stack flares.

4.9 Hot Work

Flame Detectors may alarm in the presence of hot work, for example a welding operation, and this must be taken into
account when doing Hot Work risk assessments and when issuing Hot Work permits.

Usually it is sufficient to inhibit or isolate the alarm system in that area and substitute a ‘Fire Marshall’ or safety man armed with
an appropriate fire extinguisher.

Note: Safety margins should include an allowance for resistance changes due to changes in T ambient over time. I.e. Higher
temperature = higher resistance, while resistance may increase due to oxidation or loss of ductility over time.

5.2 Cabling Recommendations

The FSL100 Flame Detector is supplied fitted with a suitable gland. The use of industrial grade, screened and suitably armoured
field cable is recommended.

For example, three core copper cable, with screen (90% coverage) and suitable mechanical protection (i.e. insulated steel wire
armour) to suit M20 gland entry.

The maximum conductor size for the terminals is 1.5 mm2 (16 AWG).
Ensure the cable gland is installed correctly and fully tightened. All unused cable/conduit entries must be sealed with a suitable

certified sealing plug.

5.3 Earth (Ground) Regimes

Please note:

 Controllers should be connected to protective earth (ground) via an isolator switch that cannot disconnect the earth line.
 Field cable screens should be connected to instrument earth (ground) in the controller only. The other end of the field cable

screen shall be cut and isolated.

 Field cable armour / conduit shall be insulated from the cable screening and earthed (grounded).
 Avoid earth (ground) loops at all times.

5.5 Electrical Connection (General)

The flame detector has several wiring options; the most important are:

1. Wiring to a fire control panel using the ‘current increase’ principle.

2. Wiring to a PLC using a 0-20 mA output.

3. Wiring with an additional manual self-test.

4. Stand-alone wiring, with direct use of relays.

Options 1 to 3 are explained in this chapter, and Option 4 is shown in Chapter 5.4 Wiring Diagram.

5.6 Wiring to a Controller (General):

1. Use multi-core, shielded, twisted pair cable with earth (ground), depending on the panel and the type of connection. The
isolation resistance to ground must be at least 500K Ohm.

2. Core size must be 0.5 to 1.5 mm2 (20 to 16 AWG).

3. The length and diameter of the wires should be selected so that the flame detector will have sufficient power under all
conditions (normal and alarm) to ensure that the operating voltage is never below 10 VDC, especially when in alarm mode.

4. On the flame detector side of the cable leave a 10 cm (4 in) loop of spare cable to allow for alignment of the detector.

5. Grounding on the flame detector side: ensure that the screen cannot make an electrical connection with ground or with the
electronics in the detector housing. Ensure that the electronics in the flame detector housing are isolated from local ground
to avoid potential differences (ground loops).

6. Do not connect more than one flame detector per loop.

The flame detector has a cable gland fitted with an 8 mm insert. Use the cable gland with the insert for cables from 5.5 – 8 mm
diameter. Remove the insert for cables of 8 – 13 mm diameter.

Figure 10. FSL100 Cable Gland with and without Cable Entry Insert

Warning

The cable Earth (Ground) core must be connected to Protective Earth via the Controller power supplies, and the
cable screen must be connected to the controller’s common earth (ground) point.

The cable armour or conduit must be bonded to Protective Earth at regular intervals while being isolated from
the cable screen, cores and controller.

Avoid earth (ground) loops at all times.

5.7 Wiring to a Fire Control Panel

The flame detector can be connected to a fire control panel using the current increase principle.
The flame detector is connected to the fire panel with 3 or 4 core cables, i.e. 2 cores for the power supply and 1 or 2 cores for

the loop. An additional core for the manual self-test may be used (see the FSL100 Terminal Connection Diagram).
The end of line resistor (EOL) is placed between the terminals 15 and 17. The alarm resistor (AL) is placed between terminals

16 and 18. The end of line and alarm resistors should be adapted to the fire control panel. They are approximately the same
size resistors that are used when connecting a manual call point to a fire control panel.

Operating Principle:

The loop uses the alarm contact and the fault contact of the flame detector plus two resistors. In the event of a detector fault a
wire breakage is simulated. In the event of a fault followed by an alarm, a current Vn/AL is flowing through the loop. Thus an
alarm ‘overrides’ a fault signal, as can be seen in the figure.

Notes:

1. Please consult the fire control panel manufacturer for the values of the Alarm and EOL resistors.

2. The alarm and EOL resistor must be rated 2 W minimum each, and the total power dissipation of both alarm and EOL
resistor should not exceed 2 W. Use heat shrink tubing to insulate the legs of the EOL and the AL resistor when in-situ.

3. Do not connect more than one flame detector to a loop.

5.9 Wiring to a 4-20 mA Non-Isolated (Sourcing) Current Output

The FLS100 detectors can be wired to a 4-20 mA non-Isolated (Sourcing) Output by using the controller’s alarm and fault
relays, as shown below.

Figure 13. Wiring to a 0-20 mA Non-Isolated (Sourcing) Current Output

The 4-20 mA sourcing output has the following values:

 ≥4 mA = Normal operation
 ≥20 mA = Alarm

FSL100 Series Flame Detectors

Technical Handbook

5.10 Connecting the Manual Self-Test

A manual self-test switch can be incorporated by supplying a +10 to +28 VDC switched current to terminal 14 in the detector.
This switch can be integral or external to the Fire Control panel or the PLC.

Figure 14. Manual Self-Test Switch Locations

5.11 FSL100 Latching Alarm Settings

The FSL100 uses DIL switch 3 for field selectable alarm latching or unlatching. The default setting is latching ON, and DIL
switches 1, 2 and 4 are currently unused.

To change alarm status, change the DIL switch, and then power off for >1 second before switching back on again.
This setting is standard for fire control panels in conformity with the European standard EN54. However, you should always read

your controller’s handbook as some systems can control alarm latching status by software, in which case there is no need to
reset the detector by powering it off.

Commissioning and Testing

Notes:

1. Commissioning, maintenance and functional testing of Honeywell Fire Detection systems must only be carried out by
qualified Honeywell approved persons or qualified persons trained in accordance with this manual.

2. All local laws and regulations for the commissioning and the cabling apply, including law and regulations for activating
alarm systems, extinguishing systems and other outputs.

3. For hazardous area applications appropriate regulations shall be followed.

4. The IR sensors can become saturated if exposed to high ambient IR radiation, so ensure that the FSL100 detectors are
shielded from potential sources such as boilers, radiators and IR lamps. The FSL100 detector returns to normal within 10
seconds once the IR source is removed.

6.1 Commissioning

Carry out the following steps before the flame detector is activated for the first time and in conjunction with the associated
Controller or PLC’s Technical Manual:

1. Satisfy yourself that the chosen FSL100 is the correct choice for this situation, location and controller.

2. Clean the FSL100 window using a microfiber glass cloth or optical wipe.

3. Check the terminals, seals and cable gland, and then close and secure the FSL100 housing.

4. Check position and alignment.

5. Check if there are potential false alarm sources in the field of view and shield if necessary.

6. Thoroughly tighten the cable gland and all fasteners.

7. Check the cabling in between the FSL100 and the controller.

8. Check the controller is electrically safe (isolator, protective earth (ground) etc.)

9. Check the cable screening is correctly bonded to the controller.

10. Check that armoured conduit is earthed (grounded) but isolated from the cable screen.

11. Test the manual self-test by shorting FSL100 terminals 1 & 14 for approximately 5 seconds.

12. Perform a functional test with the FSL100-TL or FSL100-TLX test lamp even if the manual test was ok.

13. If satisfied, and when all detectors are commissioned and tested, set the Controller or PLC to normal operation.

Caution

Always ensure that relay operated outputs and alarms are inhibited or isolated before carrying out any work on
Alarm systems.

Always ensure that Alarm Systems are returned to Normal Operation when work is completed.

FSL100 Series Flame Detectors

Technical Handbook

6.2 Functional Testing

The FSL100 flame detector has been tested in the factory and shall be tested as part of installation and commissioning. In
addition the flame detector should be functionally tested regularly (i.e. weekly) as part of a site fire alarm test. Check and clean
the FSL100 window prior to testing. Contamination lowers the sensitivity of the flame detector and can build up over time if not
monitored and cleaned regularly.

Honeywell supplies the FSL100-TL (safe area) and FSL100-TLX (hazardous area) test lamps for the FSL100 series of flame
detectors. Please read the test lamp instructions in this manual before you start the functional test.

6.3 Fault Analysis

False alarms may be triggered by transient events or because:

1. The sensor is activated by a known or unknown source in its field of view.

2. The sensor is activated by electromagnetic interference.

3. The sensor is activated by cabling faults or damage (may be intermittent).

4. The sensor electronics are faulty.

A single false alarm should not cause undue concern, but a series of false alarms should be carefully investigated to rule out the
causes listed above. You should also consider other factors such as season, weather, time of day, ambient temperature or
humidity, angle of the sun, etc.

Warning

A user-defined performance requirement may stipulate that an actual (real) fire performance test is carried out
from time-to-time. Ensure that a Safe System of Work is used to avoid the risk of death, injury or damage to
property.

Caution

Always ensure that relay operated outputs and alarms are inhibited or isolated before carrying out any work on
Alarm systems.

Always ensure that Alarm Systems are returned to Normal Operation when work is completed.

COMMISSIONING

MAN0987_Iss 2_09/16

23

FSL100 Series Flame Detectors

Technical Handbook

6.4 Fault Testing

Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions before carrying out any testing as some controllers require sensors to be

decommissioned before removal or replacement.

1. Always follow a structured fault analysis and test regime.

2. Check the suspect FSL100 for signs of displacement, contamination, damage, loose or damaged cables, transient sources
etc.

3. Cover the FSL100 optics to ensure that no light or other radiation can reach the sensor and wait 30 seconds for the sensor
to return to normal. A continuing alarm state may be caused by the cabling or by the electronics. Ensure that the detector
window is uncovered after this test.

4. Check off the items listed in the section on Commissioning.

5. Check the power supplies; cables, voltage, current, ripples on the voltage signal etc.

6. Replace the flame detector with a known serviceable spare and re-test.

Caution

Always ensure that relay operated outputs and alarms are inhibited or isolated before carrying out any work on
Alarm systems.

Always ensure that Alarm Systems are returned to Normal Operation when work is completed.

OPERATION

7

FSL100 Operation

7.1 The Display LEDs

The FSL100 series flame detectors have 3 LEDs on the display:

 Steady green: powered up and in normal operation

 Steady yellow: fault (blinking yellow: repeated self-test after a self-test fault)

 Steady red: alarm

7.2 Normal Operation

The green LED is on when power is applied and the detector is in normal operation.
Fire Alarm
The green normal operation LED turns off and the red alarm LED turns on whenever the detector senses an alarm condition

and (under default settings) the alarm will remain latched (held on) until the event is cleared and either the alarm is reset at the
controller or the detector’s power is cycled.

Alternatively, if the latch setting has been changed to ‘unlatched’ the detector will return to normal operation once the alarm
trigger event has been removed.

Note: Optional alarm system relay outputs may be triggered during an alarm condition.

7.3 Fault Conditions

The yellow and green LEDs are illuminated when a fault condition occurs. The yellow LED turns off as soon as the fault is
cleared.

The green and yellow LEDs turn off and the red LED turns on if an alarm occurs during a non-critical fault condition (i.e. during
an IR or UV lamp test).

A blinking yellow LED shows that a self-test is in progress. The LED will become steady yellow if the FSL100 repeatedly fails
self-test.

7.4 Relay Outputs

The flame detector has 2 relay outputs:

1. Alarm relay (SPDT) that can be used to operate an alarm or relay controlled event. It can be changed from Latching
(default) to Unlatched. A latched alarm can be reset by using controller software or by cycling the detector power off and
on.

2. Fault relay (SPDT). The fault relay is energized when the detector is powered up and will be de-energized in the event of a
fault. The fault relay is non-latching.

7.5 Analogue Output 0–20 mA (Stepped, Sinking, Non-Isolated)

The analogue output has the following possible values:

 0 mA power fault / microprocessor fault
 2 mA optical fault
 4 mA normal operation
 20 mA Alarm

The output defaults to 20 mA if, during a fault, the FSL100 detects a fire.

7.6 Self-Testing

The FSL100 carries out a Power On Self Test (POST), and the 3 LEDs will flash sequentially until it is completed (10 Seconds)
The LED sequence is replaced by a steady green LED If the detector passes the test.

While powered up, an optical self-test is periodically and automatically executed to monitor the electronics and the sensor(s).
During this short test the yellow LED may flash and the FSL100 outputs are temporarily inhibited. The test may repeat several
times if a sensor fails the optical self-test.

The yellow fault LED will be steady and the fault relay will de-energize if the fault condition remains after the repeated self-tests.

MAN0987_Iss 2_09/16

OPERATION

7.7 Manual Self-Test

The flame detector can test the sensor(s) and also the signal processing with help of the optional manual self-test circuit.
During a successful manual self-test the alarm relay is energized and the red alarm LED illuminates. If the detector is latched,

the alarm continues until the detector is powered off.
For the manual self-test a switch can be mounted in the controller or connected externally to a +10 to +28 VDC supply. (See Ch.

6.5 Connecting the Manual Self-Test.)

During commissioning this option can be tested by shorting the FSL100 terminals 1 & 14 for 5 seconds maximum.

1. The manual self-test can be used during commissioning to test the detector without the necessity to use a flame detector
test lamp.

2. The manual self-test is not a replacement for the functional test using a test lamp. After the commissioning is completed,
the flame detectors must be functionally tested by means of a test lamp.

Caution

Always ensure that relay operated outputs and alarms are inhibited or isolated before carrying out any work on
Alarm systems.

Always ensure that Alarm Systems are returned to Normal Operation when work is completed.

Except for cleaning there is no specific preventive maintenance needed. Routine inspection of the following items is
recommended as follows:

1. Check the position and the alignment of the flame detectors.

2. Check there are no potential false alarm sources in the field of view.

3. Check there are no obstacles which restrict the field of view.

4. Clean the detector window with a microfiber cloth (see above).

5. Ensure that the cover of the housing (with detector window) is mounted correctly on the housing. The sensors must be
visible when you look through the detector window.

6. Check the cabling and conduits from the flame detectors to the controller for damage, insecurity, loose connections,
especially at earth (ground) points.

7. Check the cover and the gland are secure and undamaged to protect the IP rating.

8. Check that all fasteners and the cable gland are tight and secure.

9. Perform a functional test with help of an FSL100-TL or FSL100-TLX test lamp.

10. Ensure that once a year the inner side of the detector window is cleaned (i.e. during a field service technician’s annual
inspection).

Note:

1. The user is responsible for keeping the equipment in optimal condition. Contact Honeywell Analytics Technical Support if
you have any concerns about the serviceability or operation of the FSL100 Flame detectors, or if you need help with this
