Appendix D Common Ultra-Violet Absorbing Gases

Since the UVC120 fire detector is designed to detect fires by responding to the ultra-violet (UV) radiation they emit, it is very important to be aware of UV absorbing gases that may be present between the detector and the sources of potential fires. Small concentrations of these types of gases may not absorb enough UV radiation to cause a problem, but when higher concentrations of these gases are present the detectors may become blind as not enough ultra-violet radiation can reach them to activate an alarm. Moving detectors closer to the probable source of fire and increasing the sensitivity of the detector can help to overcome this problem in some cases. Following is a list of common UV absorbing gases:

Acetaldehyde

Methyl Methacrylate

Acetone

Alpha-Methylstyrene

Acrylonitrile

Naphthalene

Ethyl Acrylate

Nitroethane

Methyl Acrylate

Nitrobenzene

Ethanol

Nitromethane

Ammonia

1-Nitropropane

Aniline

2-Nitropropane

Benzene

2-Pentanone

1,3 Butadiene

Phenol

2-Butanone

Phenyl Clycide Ether

Butylamine

Pyridine

Chlorobenzene

Hydrogen Sulfide

1-Chloro-1-Nitropropane

Styrene

Chloroprene

Tetrachloroethylene

Cumene

Toluene

Cyclopentadiene

Trichloroethylene

O-Dichlorobenzene

Vinyl Toluene

P-Dichlorobenzene

Xylene

-36-
