Fiber optic linear heat detection
The capabilities of AP Sensing’s solution for linear heat detection, the “Linear Heat Series”, are far beyond conventional fire detection systems. The systems have the capability to not only detect fires quickly; but also to detect individual fires precisely within a few meters. The systems are unaffected by wind and able to determine the size and direction of a spreading fire over time. No other fire detection system is able to withstand temperatures up to 1000°C, without losing monitoring capability. Fiber optic based linear heat detection and monitoring systems allow fire fighting counter measures to be used effectively before and during the fire event.
Benefits of linear heat detection (DTS) for fire detection
| Features | Benefits |
| Fast, accurate and reliable fire detection | Highest safety and lowest false alarm rate even in hazardous environments |
| Industry leading technology, quality and lifespan | Reduced service and support costs |
| Freely programmable alarm criteria per zone | Different alarm sensitivities on the same cable run allows precise and selective trigger of counter measures |
| Sensor cables offer highest durability against tempertures up to 1000°C | Fire spread and size assessment at the scene of accident to activate and supervise counter measures effectively |
| Sensor cables are imperishable against environmental influences and maintenance free | Worry-free permanent operation even in hazardous with lowest cost of ownership |
| Sensor cables are light, flexible and easy to install | Reduced installation efforts and easy deployment in cable route, underground conveyer belts, storage facilities and false floors |
| Easy system integration, scalability, standard interfaces and protocols | Plug & Play capabilities, regardless of the given technical environment |
| Low power semiconductor laser and single receiver design | Enables inherently safe operation with maximum lifespan, widest operating temperature range and lowest power consumption |
