A heat detector is a fire alarm device designed to respond when the convected thermal energy of a fire increases the temperature of a heat sensitive element. The thermal mass and conductivity of the element regulate the rate flow of heat into the element. All heat detectors have this thermal lag. Heat detectors have two main classifications of operation, "rate-of-rise" and "fixed temperature". The heat detector is used to help in the reduction of property damage.

Product Description

Heat detectors work on a similar principle used by smoke detectors, by tracking the temperature instead of smoke. Heat detectors generally detect the heat that comes as a result of combustion. The devices trigger an alarm when they sense a rapid rise in temperature or when a certain temperature is reached.

Features:

Heat detectors are vital devices for detecting fires and ensuring safety. As the name suggests, the devices sense the temperature of a room or area in order to detect fires. Heat detectors work on a similar principle used by smoke detectors, by tracking the temperature instead of smoke.
