Should Wildfire Sensors be replaced if a fire occurred nearby?

When there is a wildfire directly where the sensors are, they will, of course, be destroyed by the flames and need to be replaced, if the tree is still alive. However, they will continue to run fire detection processes up to the point when they are destroyed.

In general, after a wildfire has been detected by our Sensors and firefighting occurs in the area of the sensors, the Sensors in the area should be replaced. Also, if the Sensors that have been massively soaked in chemicals, such as to extinguish fires, they are most likely going to be contaminated and should be replaced. The sensors may continue to work, but to ensure they function, we recommend replacing them after fire fighting.

However, even in cases where a fire occurred nearby, Silvanet Wildfire Sensors can survive as they are made from durable plastics and all electronic components are sealed with resin.
