Please note that Pertronic-Anbesec LHD Cable is preferred for new installations.
Linear Heat Detection Cable (LHD) is designed for use where traditional point heat detectors are unsuitable.
The LHD is a fixed temperature sensor capable of initiating an alarm if its temperature threshold exceeded.
It consists of two tri-metallic conductors twisted together to keep them under mechanical tension. Each conductor is individually coated in a temperature-sensitive polymer that detects heat conditions anywhere along its length.
It is not required that a specific length be heated in order to initiate an alarm. Therefore, LHD provides the advantage of line coverage with point sensitivity.
LHD cable is available with a PVC or Nylon outer sheath.
Typical applications include tunnels, mining, manufacturing, warehousing, cold stores, communications and general instustry, etc.
