DESCRIPTION
The LHS™ Linear Heat Sensor cable is a flexible, dura-
ble and cost-effective fixed-temperature fire detector,
suitable for protecting a wide range of commercial and
industrial fire applications.
LHS is a small diameter cable capable of detecting heat
from a fire over its entire length. The sensor cable con-
sists of a twisted pair of 19 AWG copper coated steel
conductors covered by a temperature sensitive insula-
tion, and protected by either a plastic braid or jacket for
various environmental applications.
The LHS Linear Heat Sensor is Factory Mutual Approved
and is designed for open area as well as proximity detec-
tion. A wide range of jackets and operating temperatures
are available for proper system design, including con-
fined areas or harsh environments which prohibit the use
of other forms of detection. LHS is compatible with any
fire control panel that is capable of accepting contact clo-
sure type initiating devices.
APPLICATIONS
• Open Area Protection
• Belt Conveyers
• Tunnels
• Aircraft Hangars
• Cable Trays
• Floating Roof Tanks
• Classified Hazardous Areas (when used with intrinsic
safety barriers)
OPERATION
The heat from a fire causes the LHS cable’s special insu-
lation to melt at a specific temperature, allowing the two
conductors to short together, thus creating an alarm con-
dition on the fire control panel. The LHS cable may also
be used as a stand-alone contact device. The LHS nor-
mal operating state is an open circuit. For installation
details refer to “LHS Installation Instructions” (73-202).

FIRE ZONE LOCATION WITH LHS
An Intelligent Linear Heat Detection System is recom-
mended for applications where fire zone location requires
zone output control for notification appliances, HVAC
control, suppression control and annunciation. In this sys-
tem, each discrete addressable LHS cable zone will
report an individual alarm to the SmartOne®-compatible
fire control panel.
Addressable LHS cable zones are created by attaching
each LHS cable zone to an Addressable Input module
(P/N 70-407008-001). Each discrete LHS cable zone
location can be displayed on the SmartOne-compatible
panel 80-character LCD display with programmable text
zone description. Up to 255 devices (any mix of devices
including smoke detectors, manual pull stations, water-
flow switches, LHS zones, etc.) can be connected to a
single SmartOne-compatible’s addressable loop.
Installing an Intelligent Linear Heat Detection System
results in substantial installation cost savings over tradi-
tional hard-wired linear heat detection systems.
