Daytime Fire Detection With Ofil's DayCor® Camera

 
Ofil's solar blind technology
was originally designed to detect and locate phenomena of fire and flames.
The DayCor® camera can be integrated as a major detecting component in fire monitoring systems for ranches of gas and oil cisterns and in installations of the chemical industry.
Video images from cameras can be transmitted to a control center.


Invisible 'blue' flames detection:
The SBUV technology is especially applicable for the detection of alcohol flames and hydrogen flames, which emit mostly in the ultraviolet band.
Alcohol & hydrogen fuels are used in chemical industries.
Hydrogen fuel is used in launching pads and even in modern vehicles engines.


Protection of fuel loading gantries such as automatically fuel filling stations and loading trucks.
The DayCor® camera has to be installed on a tower facing the filling station, at a distance of 100 - 200 meters.
A DayCor®II gimbaled platform will enable periodic rotation in a defined angle covering a filling station

Forest fire detection:
a small Forest fire can be detected by the DayCor® up to a several kilometers distance. There are no false alarm from heat and sun reflection.
