Signaline is on a mission – We are determined to detect any heat, anywhere, but we are also determined to reduce our ecological impact.
Therefore, we have been ruthlessly eliminating our plastic packaging.
When we launched the Q clip in 2023 our design brief was to remove the requirement for plastic tie wraps when securing Signaline Linear Heat Detection while ensuring compliance with the EN54 installations standards.
Target set; target hit. But then we realized we were scoring a massive own goal by packaging them in a plastic bags!
Time to wake up and get this sorted!
And we are now pleased to announce that all our clips will be supplied in recycled and fully recyclable cardboard containers and not plastic bags.
Glad to have got that sorted we then took aim at the linear heat detector itself. Often supplied to our customers on toughened plastic pallets we needed to remove the usage of plastic here too.
Simple – switch from plastic to wooden pallets, right?
Wrong! Did you know that 25m cubic metres virgin wood is used for pallet manufacturing each year in Europe alone! This removes a vital carbon sink and food source from the wild.
So the search was on to find a pallet that is tough enough to ensure safe delivery of Signaline Linear Heat Detection to our customers, but with the lightest environmental footprint…..And we may have just found it!
All palletised deliveries will now be on recycled and fully recyclable presswood pallets. And why are these so good I hear you ask?
100% recycled wood
100% recyclable
Zero glues, chemicals etc.
Stackable reducing shipping space and therefore CO2 emissions
ISPM15 compliant – Because presswood pallets are moulded under enormous pressure at a very high temperature, they do not need to conform to the strict ISPM 15 regulations which make them a good choice for export
Old plastic pallets will be phased outReplacement Pressedwood pallets which are fully recyclable
Why stop there!
Our next step will be the removal of all instructions manuals from Signaline products. That’s right – installers will now need to guess how to program a Signaline LocatorPlus or how to assemble a Signaline UCB into a junction box.
Don’t worry – just kidding!
We will be replacing all manuals with QR codes allowing instant access to all our manuals from anywhere in the world and reducing our paper and printing consumption and thereby our ecological footprint.
We will be making the above transitions from the 1st September 2024 so you may receive the odd ‘bag’ of clips or a non-recyclable pallet still. Ultimately it is better for the planet we use up what we already have than just chuck it out but after this period all orders will be received with 100% recycled and recyclable cardboard packaging and pallets.
So the choice is simple. Not only can Signaline detector anyheat, anywhere. We can also do it while having the least ecological impact.
To learn more about these changes or to find out more about Signaline can be your first line in fire detection please call +44 1252 725257 or email sales@lgmproducts.com

Signaline is pleased to announce the edition of the FT-EOL termination box to our Signaline FT range. This new end of line termination box is designed with the installer and ongoing maintenance in mind.
Not just another box!
The Signaline FT-EOL is designed specifically to be used with our range of Signaline FT linear heat detection cables.
Linear heat detection is a method used to detect heat or fire along a linear path, such as in car parks, solar panels, tunnels or conveyor belts. It works by using a heat-sensitive cable that detects changes in temperature. When the cable reaches a certain temperature, it triggers an alarm or activates a fire suppression system.
In many applications the Linear Heat Detection is installed in difficult to reach spaces, such as ceiling voids or along conveyors, or in areas where regular live heat testing can be difficult due to operational constraints.
The new Signaline FT-EOL resolves this issue by incorporating into the termination box both alarm and fault test switches. Thus ensuring ongoing maintenance is a simple – just push the button!
Why have one when you can have two!
The Signaline FT-EOL is literally twice as good as it looks and it already looks pretty goood!
Inside the IP66 enclosure you will find not one but two terminations for Signaline FT cable.
Meaning that two zones of cable can be terminated in the same place. This reduces product site costs, decrease installation time and decreases ongoing maintenance and testing time but accessing two zones in a single location
The Signaline FT-EOL has been designed to be compatible with the LocatorPlus and Signaline FT range of linear heat detection cables.

Case studies have shown the success of linear heat detection in commercial PV systems.
Photovoltaic (PV) systems, also known as solar PV panels, have gained popularity as a renewable energy source. These systems convert sunlight into electricity using semiconductor materials. While PV systems offer numerous benefits, it is crucial to consider fire safety measures to prevent potential hazards.
There is a need to rethink PV systems as generators. Building standards make allowance for fire detection and safety if your building incorporates a gas or diesel generator. Therefore, we need to consider the same risk for PV systems as these too are large generators of power.
Signaline Linear Heat Detection is a specialized technology that plays a vital role in PV fire safety.
It is designed to detect and provide early warning of fire hazards in PV installations. Unlike conventional fire alarm systems, which rely on spot detectors, linear heat detection can sense temperature changes along its entire length.
This blog aims to simplify PV fire safety by providing an overview of linear heat detection and its implementation in PV systems. We will explore the common causes of PV system fires, the role of environmental factors, and the benefits of using linear heat detection technology.
Additionally, we will delve into the planning, design, and installation considerations for implementing linear heat detection in PV installations. Compliance and standards for PV fire safety will also be discussed, along with case studies highlighting the success of linear heat detection in preventing PV system fires.
By understanding the importance of linear heat detection and its application in PV systems, we can enhance fire safety measures and ensure the reliable and efficient operation of solar PV panels.
Understanding PV Fire Risks
PV panels and associated electrical equipment pose specific fire risks that need to be addressed for proper fire safety in PV installations. PV systems generate electrical power from sunlight through the use of solar panels, which produce direct current (DC) electricity.
This DC power needs to be converted to alternating current (AC) for use in buildings or the grid.
However, the conversion process and the presence of electrical components increase the risk of fire. Faulty wiring, overheating inverters, and inadequate surge protection can lead to electrical malfunctions and potential fire hazards.
It is essential to implement suitable fire safety measures to mitigate these risks and protect both the PV system and the surrounding environment.
The Role of Environmental Factors in PV Fire Safety
Environmental factors play a significant role in PV fire safety.
Direct sunlight, which is necessary for solar energy production, can also contribute to the risk of fires in PV systems. The heat generated by the sunlight can increase the temperature of electrical components, potentially leading to malfunctions and fires.
Other environmental factors, such as the presence of flammable materials or the accumulation of dust and debris on the panels, can further enhance the fire risk. It is essential to consider these environmental factors when designing and implementing fire safety measures in PV installations.

Signaline Linear heat detection, with its ability to detect heat along the entire length of a cable, is a reliable solution for mitigating the impact of these environmental factors on PV fire safety.
Introduction to Linear Heat Detection in PV Systems
Signaline Linear heat detection is a specialized technology used to detect heat or sudden increases in temperature along a cable’s entire length. In the context of PV systems, linear heat detection plays a crucial role in detecting and preventing fires.
Unlike conventional fire alarm systems, which rely on individual spot detectors, linear heat detection provides continuous monitoring and early warning capabilities. This technology operates based on a fixed temperature threshold, triggering an alarm when the specified temperature is reached.
By promptly detecting and alerting to potential fire hazards, linear heat detection ensures prompt response and minimizes the risk of damage in PV systems.
How Linear Heat Detection Works
Linear heat detection works by utilizing a specialized cable that is sensitive to changes in temperature. When the temperature in the vicinity of the cable exceeds a specified threshold, the cable undergoes a change in its electrical characteristics. This change triggers an alarm signal, indicating the presence of a potential fire.
The alarm signal is typically connected to a fire control panel or other monitoring systems, enabling prompt response and necessary actions. By continuously monitoring the temperature along its entire length, linear heat detection offers reliable and early detection of potential fire hazards in PV systems.
Benefits of Using Linear Heat Detection for PV Systems
Using linear heat detection in PV systems offers several advantages in terms of fire safety and overall system reliability. Some of the key benefits include:
Early detection: Linear heat detection provides continuous monitoring and early detection of potential fire hazards, enabling swift response and minimizing the risk of damage.
Reliability: Linear heat detection cables are highly reliable and can withstand harsh environmental conditions, ensuring long-term performance and minimal false alarms.
Efficiency: By detecting heat along the entire length of the cable, linear heat detection minimizes the risk of undetected fires and allows for targeted fire suppression actions.
Environmental suitability: Signaline has often been used for environmentally harsh conditions. PV systems need to withstand continuous UV, seasonal temperature variations and possible debris damage. Signaline is highly resilient to all these factors.
Planning and Design Considerations
Signaline FT-105-R was used to protect large solar array in Turkey
When planning and designing a linear heat detection system for PV installations, several considerations need to be taken into account. These include:
Selecting suitable cable type: Choosing the appropriate linear heat detection cable based on the installation environment and the specific requirements of the PV system. Our recommendation is that the cable installed should have an alarm temperature 20°C above maximum ambient temperature.
Ensuring proper cable routing: Properly routing the linear heat detection cable to cover the targeted areas, ensuring comprehensive coverage and effective detection. It is recommended to run a line of Signaline Linear heat detection across the back of every run of panels.
Integration with fire alarm systems: Coordinating the linear heat detection system with the overall fire alarm system to enable centralized monitoring, alerts, and response capabilities. Thankfully Signaline is compatible with all types of commercial fire detection systems and can conform to UL, FM and EN standards.
Compliance and Standards for PV Fire Safety
At time of writing, the UK, EU or US are yet to establish governing regulations for fire detection specifically within PV Systems.
However, leading global insurance firms have been conducting their own research and have concluded that Linear Heat Detection is a highly suitable technology to detect over heating PV systems.
‘. . . installations where combustible construction is unavoidable, consider the installation of FM Approved, linear heat detection on top of the roof cover and below the PV modules. One line of heat detection can be placed within each sun-facing or east-west facing row of PV panels’
As with FM their research clearly pointed towards Linear Heat Detection as one of the view suitable technologies to provide efficient fire and cost-effective fire detection for roof top PV Systems.
These independent results point clearly towards Linear Heat Detection to be the correct choice for increased fire safety standards within roof mounted PV systems.
Conclusion
Signaline Linear heat detection is a crucial component in enhancing PV fire safety. By understanding the risks associated with PV systems, implementing linear heat detection technology, and adhering to compliance standards, you can significantly reduce the chances of fire incidents.
With proper planning, design, and installation practices, linear heat detection offers a reliable solution for early fire detection in PV installations. These technologies play a vital role in safeguarding PV systems, contributing to overall fire prevention success.
