4PIN IR Infrared Flame Detection Sensor Module

4PIN IR Infrared Flame Detection Sensor Module

The Flame Sensor Infrared Receiver Module is a compact, Arduino-compatible device designed for reliable flame detection. It operates within a wavelength range of 760nm to 1100nm, making it effective at detecting flames or light sources. Ideal for detecting small flames, such as from a lighter, the module has a detection range of up to 80cm, with the range increasing as the flame intensity grows. Its 60-degree detection angle and high sensitivity to the flame spectrum ensure accurate and reliable detection.

The module provides a single-channel output signal at the D0 terminal, which can be used to trigger alarm systems or other switching mechanisms. The sensitivity is adjustable via a blue potentiometer on the board, allowing for customization based on specific needs or application requirements. Overall, this Flame Sensor module offers a versatile, adjustable, and efficient solution for flame detection in various environments.

Features 

• Indicator light: a green one for the switch, a red one for power.
• Built in a potentiometer for sensitivity control.
• Onboard signal output indication, output effective signal is high, at the same time the indicator lights up, the output signal can directly connect to microcontroller IO.
• Can detect fire or wavelength in 760 ~ 1100 nm nano within the scope of the light source.
• Detection angle about 60 degrees, the flame spectrum especially sensitive.
• The flame of the most sensitive sensors flames, the regular light is also a response, generally used for fire alarm purposes.

Applications

This sensor can be used as a robot eye to find the fire source in a firefighting robot.
