MICROSITES
PROLINE is one of the very few Companies in the Fire Protection Industry to provide free linear detection equipment design assistance, market leading pricing, prompt deliveries from a large UK based stock holding,commissioning support, high quality products, International certification (which includes FM approvals AND UL listing) AND a maximum 24 hours response to customer communications. The Company ALSO provides its more loyal customers and distributors with the opportunity to participate in the Company MICROSITE system whereby ALL Corporate documentation - including product literature - illustrates the customer Company name & address, contact name, telephone numbers, email and web addresses ...not Proline's!
Cost to the customer / Distributor for MICROSITE service ...NIL!

Who / What is Proline?
With the majority of Industrial fires being undetected overheat conditions which are allowed to progress to combustion - it makes sense to invest in a fire PREVENTION capability - PROLINE "TH" DIGITAL LINEAR TEMPERATURE SENSING regardless of environmental conditions and length of sensor cable that would be exposed to an overheat condition.
Consider also a system which can be easily integrated into a customer central control panel and which provides ALARM LOCATION together with pre-alarm, ambient temperature rise indication, site programmable multiple alarm outputs, continued detection with break in a cable - PROLINE "TH" DIGITAL LINEAR TEMPERATURE SENSING.
Proline is able to offer fibre optic linear temperature sensing as well as its FM approved and UL listed "digital" LHS but we would advise that - unlike some - the much more costly fibre optic system is recommended only where it can offer financially justified advantages over "digital". For example, does a temperature accuracy of +/- 2C or better and/or 1m spatial resolution offer an end user measureable benefits on overheat and incipient fire detection risks? We'd suggest not when the "digital" linear with ZI optional interface units (features list below) can provide so much at a much lower price and with International certification!
Introduction to PROLINE
PROLINE ....an FM approved, UL listed, Russian Market and Bomba (Malaysia) Certified combined detector and cable which monitors temperature changes at ANY and ALL points along its length and can be installed at the "point of risk" to detect pre-combustion overheat conditions without reliance on any favourable airflows. Alarm temperature operation is NOT reliant upon any minimum length of sensor cable exposure. (Alarm temperature is the same for 1cm exposure as for 2kms length)!
Direct connection to customer central alarm control panel without use of a Proline supplied interface unit or increased signalling capabilities obtained by specifying a ZI interface unit (see below).
A range of Features and Benefits that offer end user customers CONTINUED DETECTION - EVEN WITH BREAK IN SENSOR CABLE OR SUPPLY LOOP CABLE
Features include:-
- DETECTION AT "POINT OF RISK" or WITHIN BULK AREAS
- CABLE & DETECTOR COMBINED
- EXTRUSIONS & BRAIDING TO SUIT ALL RISKS
- SENSOR CABLES DO NOT PROPAGATE FLAME
- ALARM TEMPERATURE RANGE: +45C /113F to +185C /365F
- NO MINIMUM LENGTH EXPOSURE REQUIREMENT
- AMBIENT TEMPERATURE RANGE: -40C / -40F to +125C /+257F
- COMPATIBLE WITH ALL CENTRAL ALARM CONTROL PANELS
- 10.66m /35ft SPACINGS FOR AREA COVERAGE ( UL RECOMMENDATION)
- OVERHEAT DETECTION = FIRE PREVENTION
- INCIPIENT FIRE DETECTION WITHIN ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- NOT AFFECTED BY RFI or EMC
- ATEX CERTIFIED - ZENER BARRIER FOR HAZARDOUS AREA RISK PROTECTION
- SECTION REPLACEMENT OF ALARM DAMAGED LENGTH ONLY
- OPTIONAL INTERFACE UNIT RANGE - MULTIPLE SIGNALLING OPTIONS (see below)
Remember
THE LARGEST % OF INDUSTRIAL FIRES ARE UNDETECTED OVERHEAT CONDITIONS WHICH ARE ALLOWED TO PROGRESS TO COMBUSTION. DETECTION OF AN OVERHEAT COULD ...PREVENT ...A FIRE STARTING!!!

Central Alarm System Integration
PROLINE "TH" SENSOR CABLES MAY BE CONNECTED TO A CUSTOMER CENTRAL FIRE ALARM OR BUILDING MANAGEMENT CONTROL PANEL WITHOUT THE REQUIREMENT FOR ANY PROLINE SUPPLIED INTERFACE UNIT.
CONNECTION TO BE BY ZONE MONITOR UNIT (ZMU), INPUT/OUTPUT (I/O) OR SIMILAR DEVICE.
WHERE ALARM POINT LOCATION CAN BE OF BENEFIT (AS IN OVERHEAT DETECTION - NO VISIBLE FLAMES) A PROLINE ZI INTERFACE UNIT SHOULD BE INSTALLED BETWEEN THE "TH" SENSOR CABLE AND ZMU or I/O UNIT.
