Tube Fixings
The Firetrace™ detection tubing needs to be adequately fixed to retain its position and
withstand any possible vibration.
The tubing is a soft polymer and is susceptible to wear / chaffing when repeatedly rubbed
against a hard or sharp surface. The tubing should be protected where it passes through
holes.
The following photograph shows a "P-clip" fixing and "Tyrap" fixing with Kopex for protection
against abrasion.
Always leave a small loop of tubing adjacent to the cylinder. Whilst this should also be
secured it must be releasable to allow future servicing of the cylinder.
Where the tubing is installed with a group of other cables it must be positioned on the
underside of the loom and must never be located within the centre of the loom.
