The Linear Heat Detection (LHD) N45 Series technology detects fire quickly and identifies the location of the fire with maximum accuracy and reliability by using a fibre optic cable as a precise, distributed heat sensor.
The advanced LHD N45 Series goes far beyond conventional fire detection systems. This technology measures an accurate temperature profile every few seconds along a fibre optic cable, up to 16km (varies by model). It is unaffected by air currents and hence accurately determines the size and direction of a spreading fire.
In large scale infrastructures the sensor cable typically runs through different areas under various temperature conditions. The fibre optic LHD solution lets you configure the appropriate alarm criteria in hundreds of zones along the same cable run, regardless of how long your sensor cable actually is. The industry’s fastest fire detection and lowest false alarm rate are in balance even under challenging conditions, regardless of the application. The system is immune to dirt, dust, corrosive environments, organic vapours, extreme temperatures or radiation.
Larger facilities have challenging installation and commissioning requirements and higher maintenance efforts. LHD N45 addresses these problems by using a standard fibre optic cable as a precise, distributed heat sensor. With LHD N45 Series fire-fighting countermeasures can be used effectively before and throughout the fire event. Ideal for use in infrastructures and buildings such as rail and road tunnels, airports, mining shafts, parking stations and warehouses.
Each fibre optic LHD instrument is individually tested before shipping and must pass strict test limits. This ensures that every fibre optic LHD unit will meet or exceed the specifications in this data sheet. Adhering to our stringent quality control measures guarantees optimal performance and a long product life.
