FLAME SENSITIVITY—
The U7698B detects a 1 foot by 1 foot gasoline fire at 65
feet, a 1 foot by 1 foot diesel fire at 60 feet, a 1 foot by 1
foot methanol fire at 50 feet.

RESPONSE TIME—
The response time of the detector is a function of fuel,
fire size, distance, and orientation of the fire source.
Typically, the U7698 will respond in 3 seconds to a high
intensity flickering IR source and within 8 to 10 seconds
to a 1 square foot gasoline fire at 65 feet (approximately
0.1 square meter at 20 meters).

TEMPERATURE RANGE—
Operating: –40°F to +167°F (–40°C to +75°C).
Storage:

–40°F to +185°F (–40°C to +85°C).

HUMIDITY RANGE—
0 to 95%, can withstand 100% condensing humidity for
short periods of time.

ENCLOSURE MATERIALS—
Anodized aluminum or 316 stainless steel, with stainless
steel mounting brackets.

CERTIFICATION—
VDS:

Performance verified to EN 54-10.

CSA:

Class I, Division 1, Groups C and D;
Class II, Division 1, Groups E, F, and G;

Special Conditions for Safe Use:

• The Model U7698A/B/C Flame Detectors have an

ambient temperature rating for performance of
–40°C to +75°C.

• The maximum surface temperature designation T

130°C is based on the maximum ambient tempera-
ture of 75°C and under dust layers with up to 5mm
thickness.

• Precautions must be taken to ensure that the elec-

tronics will not operate at ambient temperatures
exceeding 110°C.

• For use in Dust environments the Models

U7698A/B/C Flame Detectors are to be used only in
Zone 21 (Category 2) or Zone 22 (Category 3) appli-
cations.

DIMENSIONS—
See Figure 5.

WIRING—
16 to 22 AWG. Shielded cable is recommended to pro-
vide increased immunity to RFI and EMI. A conduit entry
adapter is located on one side of the detector/controller
and a stop plug is located on the other. A second con-
duit entry adapter can be added by replacing the stop
plug with an adapter. See Figure 5 for thread sizes.

The adapter and plug are also used to tighten the detec-
tor/controller to the mounting bracket in a fixed position.

VIBRATION—
The U7698B meets MIL-STD-810C for vibration.
