Description
**Core Applications**
In the realm of intrusion detection, an advanced “electronic fence” paired with alarm verification and video surveillance is instrumental in safeguarding assets and thwarting sabotage.
High-performance intrusion detection is paramount in hazardous environments like fossil fuel and chemical facilities. Xtralis delivers defense-grade perimeter security solutions, featuring Outdoor Intrinsically Safe Passive Infrared Detectors. These systems, which discern temperature variations between moving subjects and their stationary background, provide reliable protection in hazardous settings. Intrinsically Safe Passive Infrared detectors are optimally designed for deployment in the following critical industries:
**Fossil Fuel Sector**
– Oil and gas platforms and refineries
– Petrol, oil, kerosene storage
– Pump stations along railways, harbors, and pipelines
**Chemical Sector**
– Chemical laboratories
– Chemical manufacturing sites
– Pyrotechnic material production facilities and storage
**Additional Applications**
– Electric power transformation substations
– Aircraft hangars and parking areas for petrol/oil transport trucks
– Process industry operations
**Technical Overview**
For effective operation, high-performance, intrinsically safe detectors necessitate the installation of IS barriers for power, switching, and communications. These detectors can operate at a distance of up to 200 meters from nonhazardous zones. Xtralis provides IS barriers for these essential functions.
**Compliance with Standards**
The intrinsically safe detectors adhere to the following standards:
**IEC 60079-0 : 2011 Edition: 6.0**
Explosive atmospheres – Part 0: General requirements
**IEC 60079-11 : 2011-06 Edition: 6.0**
Explosive atmospheres – Part 11: Equipment protection by intrinsic safety “i”
**IEC 60079-15 : 2010 Edition: 4**
Explosive atmospheres – Part 15: Equipment protection by type of protection “n”
