A flame detector system is a system in which sensors are installed basically to detect and respond to the presence of any fire or flame. The flame detector systems perform the function of actuating the alarms, turning on the fire suppression system and cutting off the fuel line, which is feeding the fire. Flame detector systems are required to work under any given harsh condition to ensure safety. The primary purpose of installation of the flame detector system is to ensure the security against any activities causing a fire.

Flame detector systems are preferred over the other counterparts such as heat and smoke detectors because of the accuracy and efficiency of operation provided by these systems. With the increased emphasis taken by the governments on the safety of working people the market for flame detector system has entered into various fields of application such as energy and power, healthcare, oil and gas, commercial buildings and others. The technological advancements have led to the identification of false alarm generating situations which have acted as growth factors for the global flame detector system market.

Based on its type, the global flame detector system market is broadly classified into, single IR, single UV, dual IR/UV, triple IR, and multi IR. The single IR were the most used in the manufacturing and oil & gas industries, but with the higher advantage of flame detection and latest technology usage, the multi IR segment is set to dominate the market in the given forecast period. Based on service, the market is segmented as engineering service, installation & design service, maintenance service, inspection & managed services and other services.

On the basis of its application, the global flame detector system market can be segmented into power generation, marine, manufacturing, healthcare, oil & gas, mining, transportation and logistics, automotive, defence & aerospace, and others. The increase in a number of industries all over the globe and taking in the consideration the safety of the workers, the flame detector system market will be dominated by the industrial sector in the given forecast period.

The government policies, norms, and regulations regarding workplace safety are the key factors driving the global flame detector system market. The increased installations of flame detectors across industries, enterprises, and companies are the other factor helping the growth of the global flame detector system market.

The high initial cost indulged in manufacturing and installation of the flame detector systems acts as the key market restraint for the global flame detector system market. Also, the shorter life cycle and high maintenance cost are other factors hindering the growth of the global flame detector system market.

Key Industry Developments

• In July 2019, Emerson introduced two new Rosemount 628 universal gas sensors which have the additional capabilities of measuring carbon monoxide and ozone depletion and the previously existing capability of monitoring hydrogen sulfide. This addition provides a wider range of monitoring hazardous situations. The sensor can be used at remote wellheads, pipelines, storage terminals, and other process plants and facilities.


• In February 2019, fire-detecting equipment which uses heat signature mapping and multi-sensory system which is aimed at reducing fire incidents, was developed by grade 12 students of Mapua Senior High School. The project was named FLAME and is powered by the Internet of Things(IoT) and Artificial Neural Network Technologies.


• In March 2019, Pittsburgh based safety equipment manufacturer MSA Safety Inc. announced that it has signed an agreement with Sierra Monitor Corp for its acquisition. The acquisition is for approximately $33million and is aimed at improving worker safety by using cloud technology and wireless connectivity.
