Commercial Fire Protection: Heat Detector For Industrial Settings

Image
  Heat detectors are devices designed to sense elevated temperatures and trigger alarms or fire suppression systems when a predetermined temperature threshold is reached. Unlike smoke detectors, which respond to the presence of smoke particles, heat detectors focus on changes in temperature. This makes them particularly suitable for industrial environments where dust, fumes, and other particles can often trigger false alarms in smoke detectors. There are various types of heat detectors available for industrial fire protection, and they can be categorized into three primary types: Fixed Temperature Heat Detectors : These detectors activate when the ambient temperature reaches a specific pre-set level. They are highly reliable and suitable for environments with stable temperature conditions, such as storage areas or boiler rooms. Rate-of-Rise Heat Detectors : Rate-of-rise detectors are designed to trigger an alarm when the temperature increases rapidly within a short period, indicat...
