  1. Culvert Fire Test Setup

 
  1-1. Items tested

1. PROTECTOWIRE
Line Type Heat Detection Cables
Characteristics : When the cable is exposed to fire, the cable's insulation melts by the heat and establish a new connection which tells the eruption of fire and its location.
2. FTLD
(A) Flexible Thermocouple Line Detector by XCO Int'l
(B) Characteristics : FTLD can measure ambient temperature and will detect the increase of temperature for the prevention of any fire at an early stage.
