Linear Heat Detection for Commercial Shipping and Passenger Vessels
Commercial shipping and passenger vessels are used to transport either goods and materials or passengers across the sea. These ships are typically large in size, meaning the amount of passengers on board can be in the thousands and a significant weight of goods and materials can be in transport, therefore, if fire is to occur, the consequences could be disastrous.
Using Linear Heat Detection for Marine Vessels
Vast and varied types of marine vessel sail our seas, from giant military and petro-chemical vessels through to commercial and leisure vessels of all sizes. While their purposes vary, one factor common to them all is fire risk and, despite the irony of being surrounded by water, this risk is very real.
Linear Heat Detection from Eurofyre
Linear Heat Detection can offer early detection of fire or warn of over-heating equipment in a specific area. Linear heat detection uses lengths of sensing cable that work in a similar way to conventional heat detectors, the difference being that they are capable of detecting fire, or excessive heat, at any point along their length. There is no minimum length exposure required to generate an alarm signal and systems can be installed using lengths in excess of 1000m.
