1.0 General/Product Features
• The Signaline SKM-95 is a linear heat detector controller
• The maximum length of cable per controller is 300m
• Temperature increases are detected along the entire cable
length
• The controller will accept the following cables:
• Signaline HD, for use in general applications
• Signaline HD-R, resistant to oils, chemicals and UV light
• Signaline HD-S, exceptional mechanical protection
• The system is easy and economical to install
• The alarm indicator is in accordance with DIN 14 623
• Approved to DIN/EN 54 pt5 Class C
• The VdS approved certificate No. is G203077
The sensor cable system is an early warning fire detection system
when used with the Signaline SKM-95 controller. It can be used to
detect fires and over heats on conveyor belts, cable trays or
tunnels. For detection in open areas it can be mounted on the
ceiling or also be mounted directly above a cable tray.
The sensor cable will self adjust to ambient conditions. It is also
unaffected by steam, dust, chemicals (HD-R), or smoke thereby
reducing the likelihood of false alarms which can happen with
traditional fire detection.

Signaline Analogue Heat Sensing Cable System
1) Controller type SKM-95
2) End of line box for SKM-95 (included)
3) Sensor cable
• standard (Signaline HD)
• with Rilsan coated (Signaline HD-R)
• with Stainless Steel protective braiding (Signaline HD-S)
Sensor Cable Construction
The cable is made of an inner and an outer conductor, the outer
conductor is tinned copper braid. The insulation between both
conductors is made from a plastic material with a negative
temperature coefficient, which means with increasing temperature,
the insulation resistance decreases.
In the end of line unit, at the end of the sensor cable, the sensor
cable is connected with a defined resistor of 3K6 Ohm. Therefore,
the whole system is always monitored for wire breakage (open
circuit) and short circuit. A break or a short circuit on one of these
conductors causes a fault alarm.

3.0 Installation Notes
The Signaline SKM-95 Controller connected to the Signaline sensor
cable should be mounted in the area requiring protection. The
controller and cable are designed and certified in conformity with
VdS and EN 54 pt5. Local fire regulations may vary, particularly
outside Europe. Always conform to your local fire regulations.
The cable is not to be installed 6 metres higher than the protected
area. The sensor cable must be installed as per
Figure 1
. It is
important to make sure that the distance between the wall and the
sensor cable is at least 0.5 metres. This also applies when laying
parallel to beams. Crossing of ceiling beams is possible, but the
length of sensor cable on the beams should not be longer than
10% of the overall cable length.
Before you install the sensor cable system, make a sketch drawing
of the area which will be monitored and mark out the proposed
layout. The sensor cable must be laid out in accordance with BS,
EN, DIN or your local regulations. The following points should be
adhered to:
• The sensor cable should not have any contact with a material
which cools the cable because this causes an alarm delay
• Laying on sharp objects and crushing the cable is to be
avoided so that the outer insulation of the sensor cable is not
damaged

3.0 Installation Notes
• When connecting two lengths of sensor cable use a Signaline
Universal Connector Box (Signaline UCB) available from your
local Signaline distributor.
• The minimum bend radius for Signaline Analogue Heat Sensing
Cables are as follows:
• HD - 5mm
• HD-R - 18mm
• HD-S - 20mm
• It is not advisable to mount Signaline Analogue Heat Sensing
Cables in direct contact with a surface. Please see
www.signaline.com for suitable fixing solutions. See
Figure 3
for an example of a fixing solution.
• The distance between the fixing clips should not exceed 1m.
• Mounting the sensor cable near objects which radiate heat
must be avoided. These could be powerful light sources, steam
pipes, heaters or similar and may cause false alarms.
• The end of line box must be mounted in the same zone as the
controller.
• The end of line box should, where possible, be mounted at a
height of 1,80m (+10cm/-20cm) and marked with a sign.

3.1 Complete Monitoring in Accordance with EN54 pt5
Figure 1
demonstrates a detection system which is in accordance
with EN54 pt5 for 5 metres of sensor cable. It is important to make
sure that from every point of the monitored area at least 5 metres
of sensor cable is located within a radius of 3.6m.

3.2 Maximum Cable Length
The Figure below shows the maximum allowed cable length
dependent on the maximum ambient temperature
Figure 2
An alarm will be detected when 5 metres of sensor cable is heated
between 84°C and 100°C. If a large length of Signaline Analogue
Heat Sensing Cable is heated then the alarm temperature will be
proportionally lower.
