A. This is dependant upon the linear detection system specified. It can range from less than 100m to 128,000metres. As with ALL fire detection systems, good design practices should be maintained for system zoning. As currently there are no International standards exclusively related to linear temperature detection, NFPA72 and EN54 standards are strictly followed – where appropriate.
