  • Low installation, maintenance and repair costs
  • Reliable solution for hazardous areas
  • Low material cost

Overview

The standard coating used on Digital cables is made from PVC and is suitable for most environments. However, PVC should not be used when the cables are directly exposed to UV (sunlight) or hazardous chemicals (eg. hydrocarbons) for long periods, or for applications where they may be exposed to regular mechanical abrasion.

Where the standard PVC is not recommended other materials/sheaths are available to provide a suitable solution.

Sensing Cable Construction

FyreLine linear fixed heat sensing cable is constructed using two twisted and tensioned, tri-metallic conductors. Each of the conductive cables are coated in a heat sensitive polymer which, when heated to its rated temperature, melts, causing the two cables to touch. The resulting short sends a signal to the fire alarm control panel, indicating that a fire (or excessive heat) has been detected. Once a fire has been detected the damaged length of cable is easily replaceable.

Approvals

The FyreLine digital linear heat detection cables are fully approved by the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and bears the CE mark to show that they comply with all the applicable Directives including the CPR, EMC and the Low Voltage Directive (LVD).
