Super Absorbent - High Sensitivity
Multi-4 - 4 Zone Detection Cable has been used for over ten years in areas where maximum leak detection sensitivity is essential.
Although superceded by Andel's more modern Multi-8 all-polymer detection cables for general usage, the highly absorbent Multi-4 cable is the best option where sensitvity to the smallest amount of water or condensation is required.
One length of Multi-4 - 4 Zone Detection Cable can provide up to four separately reporting zones. The zone changeover points along the cable are provided by the Floodline 4 Zone Junction boxes. The zones can be any length but the usual length is between 5 and 15m.
Multi-4 - 4 Zone Detection Cable incorporates a fine multi-filament cellulosic outer covering which acts just like a wick. Water is "sucked" into the inner detection cores allowing the system to react to the smallest drip. A special colour change system is built into the cable giving permanent evidence that the cable has been wet - and where - even after it has dried.
Applications:
Attach to the underside of the pipes (inside or outside the lagging)
Laid in drip-trays and catchment troughs
Fix to soffits and ceilings to detect water ingress
Detection:
Activates with any conductive liquid anywhere along the entire length of the detection cable. Once dry can be returned to use in most cases.
Construction:
Inner PVC core with cellulosic covered detection cores. Multi-filament cellulosic outer covering.
Dimensions:
Oval in shape, 4mm x 6mm
Fixing:
For fixing to floor or other surface. Use standard 6mm Tower Clip or self-adhesive clips, or fix to the underside of pipes with tie-wraps or tape inside or outside any lagging.
Applications:
In the voids below raised floors
Above suspended ceilings
Tie-wrapped to individual pipes
Run in drip trays
Laid around the base of an item of plant, apparatus or tank
Laid in loops or wave pattern for general monitoring of larger areas
No minimum or maximum length
Detection:
Activates with any conductive liquid anywhere along its entire length
Multiple re-use, dry and reset
Easy to replace or splice-in new length if damaged or hopelessly contaminated
Construction:
Polyester “woven” construction. No exposed conductors. Very high strength and abrasion resistance.
Dimensions:
20mm x 3mm thick. Supplied in any length either pre-connected at the factory or for cutting on site.
Fixing:
Fix to floor or other surfaces with flat ribbon type clips or self-adhesive clips or tie-wraps. Detection Tape is laid loosely with warning labels attached at regular intervals to warn of its function
System:
Connection can be made directly to any Floodline Control Panel/Unit or via Leader Cable
