Service Tools

To assist the installer and service personnel in locating heat actuated sections of the Protectowire Linear Heat Detector, or portions of the Detector which have been actuated, we offer two portable test instruments the APL-90 and MFL-92.

The CTI Calibration Kit is designed to calibrate each zone of Confirmed Temperature Initiation Linear Heat Detector and feed cable on the CTM -530 Module. This kit does not come standard when ordering the CTI Linear Heat Detector or the CTM-530 Module and is considered an add on item, though highly recommended for installers and facility managers.

APL-90 – Alarm Point Location Meter Adapter

Converts almost any digital multimeter into an alarm point location meter. Allows the general actuated (shorted) area of Digital PHSC Protectowire to be located by displaying a distance reading in feet or meters to the actuated point.

Compatibility
C Compatibile with CTI "Confirmed Temperature Initiation" Linear Heat Detectors
F Compatibile with Fiber Optic Linear Heat Detectors
D Compatibile with PHSC and PLR "Digital Linear Heat Detectors
D
MFL-92 – Manual Fault Locator System

Allows an actuated (shorted) point of Digital PHSC or CTI Detectors to be accurately located. A signal generator is connected across the detector. A receiver then monitors the signal by tracing along the detector run with a pick up. The audible signal is lost at and beyond the actuated point.
