Agenda:
Linear Heat Detection – Fixed and Programmable Temperature
Linear heat detectors (LHD) are used in a wide range of applications and provide some unique advantages over other detection types. They are easy to install and provide an easy way to conduct testing and maintenance. This makes it a great choice for applications like elevator shafts, warehouse racking, industrial machinery, cold storage, solar panels, and more. In this presentation, we will be reviewing NFPA guidance for designing LHD systems and discuss Inspection/Testing/Maintenance for the system. The audience will learn about standard fixed temperature LHD as well as programmable temperature LHD. Attendees will gain insights into different operating mechanisms of LHD, including fixed temperature and programmable-temperature based detection. The programmable temperature type detection is unique in the market and the attendees will learn about its benefits. Case studies in this presentation will illustrate successful deployment of LHD in several different applications.
