Prevent-a-Fire & HDL
Stay Cool - PREVENT A FIRE!
Introduction:
LICO’s certified HDL(Heat Detector LICO) heat detectors are designed and manufactured with the well-known rate–compensated Kidde / Fenwal DAF (Detect-a-Fire) and Ex d certified DAF Sensors. HDL units are mostly custom made and bespoken, designed for the actual hazardous & industrial area applications. Products are tested and certified to the possible highest ambient temperature limits, to cover a wide range of applications as much as possible. Our goal is to fulfill our customer’s expectations and make the right product for the right application.
With these safety products we cover a wide range of hazardous and normal industrial area applications, like: engine rooms, transformer stations, yachts, container ships, harbours, shipyards, aircrafts, wind generators, saunas, kitchens, gas turbines, off shore platforms, oil refineries, nuclear power plants and many more. Everywhere and anywhere where heat is generated that can lead to overheat and / or fire.
Preparation is everything. When there is fire, it is already far too late!
- Custom madeOur HDL heat and overheat detectors are based on bimetallic, heat detector switches, free of electronics, to provide the best reliability in high temperature applications, also during harsh environmental conditions.
- Simplicity goes through in our product family to provide easy installation and a very cost effective maintenance.
- Various alarm temperature settings are available from 60°C until even 510°C in potential free contacts, which makes fast and easy system integration in practically every already existing- or new systems.
- Our ATEX, EN 54-5, CE and ISO 9001 certificates ensure the highest level of technical solutions.
- A combination of of both ATEX & EN 54-5 certificates is possible! Please contact us for more information.

What is the advantage of Rate Compensated heat detectors?
- When the detector switches earlier than the nominal alarm temperature, there is still time to act: stop machine and / or alarm personnel.
- Safety actions in time help to prevent damages and avoid disasters!

Optional / Recommended Accessories:
Screw in Pod / Weld in Pod
A popular solution in gas, oil and chemical industry. Also widely used in hydraulics, frying and drying applications as well as in oven and heating controls.
Easy installation! Drilling the hole and welding in the weld-in pod allows easy installation and safe service without contact to the tank media.
Stainless-steel NPT Screw-in-adapter with outside & inside NPT-thread instead of outside welding.
Custom made modifications are available according to actual cost.
Attention!
Depending on the application, the Screw-in & Weld-in pods / protective sleeves can change or even block the rate of rise function of the detector! Afterwards, the detectors work like a safety thermoswitch with fixed alarm temperature only! For new installations we highly recommend to test a sample unit before taking any further action. LICO accepts no responsibility for any non-conformity, damage or loss of value.

Portable bimetallic heat detector tester:
We help you to control heat & overheat wherever is needed!
Fire warning is a basic function:
Often early Detection of excessive high temperatures is most critical. Occasionally an early Detection of too high temperatures is most vital. Excessive heat, even without the presence of smoke, can be a potential hazard of fire or explosion. The prevention of a potential fire, caused by excessive heat, allows corrective action to avoid igniting flames. In conclusion – effective action can save lifes and protect high value buildings and assets. The system can be either used for single or redundant Heat Detection using 2 equal switching temperatures. It also can be using by programming 2 (or more) different switching temperatures. The flexible and highly effective system gives accurate data acquisition and warning of excessive high temperatures. Control Heat, alarm Overheat (OVHT), alarm fire Application References: Heating plants, Heating Rooms, Dryers, Exhaust systems, Wind power generators, Gasturbines, Industrial plants,Gas & Oil-industry, Enginerooms, Compressors, Chemical Plants, Energy-plants, Sauna & Wellness-facilities & many more.
