The detector is a sensitive optical sensor designed to detect, in the presence of ambient light, the radiant energy emitted by burning or glowing embers being transported on conveyor belts. Conveyor belts move material from one process to the next and the ember detectors are used to detect embers or fires moving on the conveyor before they reach the subsequent processing machinery or storage hoppers.
