| 摘要 |
The invention is an over-temperature sensor and locator utilizing a temperature sensitive cable comprising (1) an electrical conductor, (2) a dielectric, and (3) a solid, conductive polymeric, positive temperature coefficient of resistance composition. An over-temperature condition at any point along the cable is detected by a drop in the capacitance of the cable, as measured from one end of the cable. The location of the over-temperature point on the cable is determined by comparing the reduced capacitance from the control end to the over-temperature point with the capacitance of the full cable length.
