Firetrace launches fire detection system for offshore wind turbines

Firetrace has launched XD Tubing, a flexible fire detection tubing with enhanced chemical durability, to mitigate the risk of fire and total loss in offshore and near shore wind turbines.

 

XD Detection Tubing detects fires by sensing either heat or flame. The product is launched following accelerated environmental exposure testing which simulates the field service conditions on the polymeric fire detection tubing for corrosion, creep resistance and ozone exposure.
