• The sensor cable system is an early warning fire detection system when used with the Signaline SKM-95 controller. It can be used to detect fires and over heats on conveyor belts, cable trays or tunnels. For detection in open areas it can be mounted on the ceiling or also be mounted directly above a cable tray.

5m Signaline HD Cable, radius 3.6m An alarm will be detected when 5 metres of sensor cable is heated between 84°C and 100°C. If a large length of Signaline Analogue Heat Sensing Cable is heated then the alarm temperature will be proportionally lower.
The K clip is simple and easy to install, allowing lower installation time and cost. Simply drill a 6mm Ø hole, click the cable in place, and plug it in. K clips can be used with Signaline HD and Signaline HD-R cables.
