Kidde Alarmline Automatic cable reeler - Stainless Steel c/w Stainless steel junction box

The Kidde Alarmline 1-53836-K247EX is an automatic cable reeler supplied with a stainless steel junction box which is normally placed on the roof of a floating roof tank structure where it ensures electrical continuity between linear heat detection (LHD) sensor cable and the fire detection system during the upward/downward movement of the floating roof. The cable reeler ensures that the cable remains taught thereby preventing it from becoming jammed in the moving parts of the roof.

Installed on the top rim of a tank body, the cable is connected to a junction box (e.g. 1-B6782-190) on the tank roof. The reeler follows the movement of the roof, uncoiling the cable as the roof lowers, and winding the cable when the roof rises.

The 1-53836-K247EX supports a cable drop of up to 23m (75ft). For hazardous areas, suitable safety barriers are required.
