FiWaGuard sensor tubes consist of high-tech plastic and have been develop especially for the use in automatic fire extinguishing systems. After a proper installation according to the instructions the sensor tube has to be pressurized with the prescribed operating pressure. Due to the thermic material characteristics and the internal overpressure the sensor tube burst at direct flame or at strong increase in temperature and operates as a relaible detector in case of fire. The material characteristics, the internal overpressure and the rate of increase temperature are significant factors for the response behavior. Basically, the sensor tube should be installed in the area of risk such, that it should be activated always before the adjacent components fail. When using particularly thin inflammable materials for the delimitation of objects, where necessary, the effectiveness of the sensor tube has to be proved by a test.
