FIELD: protection equipment. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention pertains to an irretrievable linear thermal sensor, which signals short circuiting due to damage. The said sensor contains a fire detecting cable which has at least two fire detecting conductors, installed in parallel, and a fusible insulating layer, a resistor, and a device for measuring resistance. The fire detecting cable also contains a semiconductor layer. The semiconductor layer and the fusible insulation layer are placed between the fire detecting conductors. As a result, a gap is formed between the fire detecting conductors. The sensor can have a cover outside the fire detecting cable. The fire detecting cable contains a conducting layer, which lies between the semiconductor layer and the fusible insulating layer. In accordance with this invention, the sensor can distinguish short circuiting due to damage from short circuiting caused by fire. ^ EFFECT: increased reliability of irretrievable linear thermal sensor. ^ 12 cl, 6 dwg |
