Heat Detection Cable Protectowire 356^oF / 180^oC

Priced by the Meter

Protectowire is an electrical circuit containing heat-sensitive materials. When the outer covering melts, the wires will make contact and complete the circuit, activating the fire system. This can be a critical extra safety feature especially if the driver becomes incapacitated in an accident.

MOUNTING:

• Mount along the ceiling of the cabin using an “S-pattern”.
• Some additional wiring may be required between the Protectowire and your system’s electrical trigger.
• Use care to not crimp or crease the outer sheath and create a weak spot.
• Keep away from heat sources including the engine compartment, transmission, differential, exhaust, direct sunlight, or hot surfaces.
• Keep away from any sharp edges that could cut or cause an abrasion on the sheathing.
• An inline plug can be used to disconnect the sensor cable during storage, transport, etc.

The cable we sell is set to trigger at 356 F (180 C).
Currently, Protectowire is only compatible with Lifeline electric systems.
