1.0 General/Product Features
The Signaline SKM-95 is a linear heat detector controller
The maximum length of cable per controller is 300m
Temperature increases are detected along the entire cable
length
The controller will accept the following cables:
Signaline HD, for use in general applications
Signaline HD-R, resistant to oils, chemicals and UV light
Signaline HD-S, exceptional mechanical protection
The system is easy and economical to install
The alarm indicator is in accordance with DIN 14 623
Approved to DIN/EN 54 pt5 Class C
The VdS approved certificate No. is G203077
The sensor cable system is an early warning fire detection system when used with the Signaline SKM-95 controller. It can be used to detect fires and over heats on conveyor belts, cable trays or tunnels. For detection in open areas it can be mounted on the ceiling or also be mounted directly above a cable tray.
The sensor cable will self adjust to ambient conditions. It is also unaffected by steam, dust, chemicals (HD-R), or smoke thereby reducing the likelihood of false alarms which can happen with traditional fire detection.

Sensor Cable Construction
The cable is made of an inner and an outer conductor, the outer conductor is tinned copper braid. The insulation between both conductors is made from a plastic material with a negative temperature coefficient, which means with increasing temperature, the insulation resistance decreases.
In the end of line unit, at the end of the sensor cable, the sensor cable is connected with a defined resistor of 3K6 Ohm. Therefore, the whole system is always monitored for wire breakage (open circuit) and short circuit. A break or a short circuit on one of these conductors causes a fault alarm.

3.0 Installation Notes
The Signaline SKM-95 Controller connected to the Signaline sensor cable should be mounted in the area requiring protection. The controller and cable are designed and certified in conformity with VdS and EN 54 pt5. Local fire regulations may vary, particularly outside Europe. Always conform to your local fire regulations.
The cable is not to be installed 6 metres higher than the protected area. The sensor cable must be installed as per
Figure 1
. It is important to make sure that the distance between the wall and the sensor cable is at least 0.5 metres. This also applies when laying parallel to beams. Crossing of ceiling beams is possible, but the length of sensor cable on the beams should not be longer than 10% of the overall cable length.
Before you install the sensor cable system, make a sketch drawing of the area which will be monitored and mark out the proposed layout. The sensor cable must be laid out in accordance with BS, EN, DIN or your local regulations. The following points should be adhered to:
The sensor cable should not have any contact with a material
which cools the cable because this causes an alarm delay
Laying on sharp objects and crushing the cable is to be
avoided so that the outer insulation of the sensor cable is not damaged

3.0 Installation Notes
When connecting two lengths of sensor cable use a Signaline
Universal Connector Box (Signaline UCB) available from your local Signaline distributor.
The minimum bend radius for Signaline Analogue Heat Sensing
Cables are as follows:
HD - 5mm
HD-R - 18mm
HD-S - 20mm
It is not advisable to mount Signaline Analogue Heat Sensing
Cables in direct contact with a surface. Please see
www.signaline.com
for suitable fixing solutions. See
Figure 3
for an example of a fixing solution.
The distance between the fixing clips should not exceed 1m.
Mounting the sensor cable near objects which radiate heat
must be avoided. These could be powerful light sources, steam pipes, heaters or similar and may cause false alarms.
The end of line box must be mounted in the same zone as the
controller.
The end of line box should, where possible, be mounted at a
height of 1,80m (+10cm/-20cm) and marked with a sign.

3.1 Complete Monitoring in Accordance with EN54 pt5
Figure 1
demonstrates a detection system which is in accordance with EN54 pt5 for 5 metres of sensor cable. It is important to make sure that from every point of the monitored area at least 5 metres of sensor cable is located within a radius of 3.6m.

3.2 Maximum Cable Length
The Figure below shows the maximum allowed cable length dependent on the maximum ambient temperature

An alarm will be detected when 5 metres of sensor cable is heated between 84°C and 100°C. If a large length of Signaline Analogue Heat Sensing Cable is heated then the alarm temperature will be proportionally lower.

4.0 Assembly Tools
To attach the sensor cable to the protected area you can use dif­ferent clips depending on your application. The cable should be at least 5mm away from the ceiling.
The K clip is simple and easy to install, allowing lower installation time and cost. Simply drill a 6mm Ø hole, click the cable in place, and plug it in. K clips can be used with Signaline HD and Signaline HD-R cables.

Temperature Heat detector.
Simulated Test
The controller will simulate a fire condition if the when address switch 8 is moved to the ON position
Heat Test
Using a hot air gun, heating 5 metres of sensor cable to 100°C (max. 115°C) will raise an alarm. When the cable has cooled, the controller may be reset.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the sensor cable is heated up to 150°C or more then that part of the cable cannot be used any more and should be replaced.
WARNING: Obtain permission of the site safety manager before starting live heat tests. Live heat tests MUST NOT be conducted in a designated hazardous area or when the Signaline HD sensor cable forms part of an intrinsically circuit.

8.0 Calculating the Installed Length of Sensor Cable
If the total length of an installed sensor cable is not know, it is possible to be calculated with the help of a multi-meter. For this then both wires of the sensor cable should be clamped together in the end of line unit. The resistance of the cable should then be measured at the other end. The sensor cable has a resistance of
0.2 Ohms per metre.
The cable length is calculated as follows:
Length in metres = resistance (Ohms)
0.2 (
