Heat detectors are considered an important element of fire safety systems, more so in situations when smoke detectors may not perform properly. While smoke detectors are made to trigger from smoke, heat detectors are the opposite, bearing no regard to the presence of smoke particles but instead activating from the rise in temperature. This is particularly useful in locations such as kitchens, garages and, in fact, factories, where there is a risk of smoke and dust rendering the ordinary smoke alarms dormant. At RiSol we have invested in different types of heat detectors which seek to add value in fire detection without the distraction of false alarms.

What is the Operating Ring of a Heat Detector?

Heat detectors can be said to break-the-glass. They can be set off when the temperature in a certain section of a building exceeds a pre-programmed value. Heat detectors can be classified into two major groups: fixed temperature and rate-of-rise. Fixed temperature detectors are wheat arguments that the bidder agrees to, based on the standard firing temperature of about 135-190°F (57-88°C). Rate-of-rise sensors, as the name explains, do not trigger until there is a rapid change in temperature that is indicative of a fire developing.

At RiSol, heat detectors are hybrid models that utilize both mechanisms. They provide early warning of fire and help prevent extensive damage and harm to people.

Preferable Areas to Use Heat Detectors

There are limitations as to the use of smoke detectors in specific parts of a home or a business. Areas that are dusty, contain fumes or contain steam like kitchens, garages or laundry rooms have a high probability of setting off false alarms with ordinary smoke detectors. In such scenarios, RiSol heat detectors provide solutions. Constructed for dependability, they work remarkably well in cultures that other detectors may not do their duty.

In industries like manufacturing or storages, there heat detectors are important. These places usually have changing quality of air and heating system detectors is a good way of detecting a fire’s presence. They are very useful in case of fire outbreaks since they will track temperature variations in order to help one respond to the fire quickly.

Simple Installation and Maintenance

Another of RiSol heat detectors is that it can be installed in a few minutes. Most of them are made to be used together with other fire alarm systems which means that there is no complicated process of trying to introduce new systems into the old ones. In addition, RiSol’s heat detectors come with the capability to self-adjust without too much attention hence their efficiency in the long run. With to help, normal wear and tear, these gadgets can be a threat for many years.
