AP Sensing to join TUSEC

July 29, 2009 - PRLog -- The Tunnel Safety & Security Network (TUSEC) is welcoming AP Sensing as a key member for fire detection in tunnels and important infrastructure projects.
TUSEC’s charter is to foster innovation and collaboration in the area of Tunnel Safety. Tunnels are sensitive traffic bottlenecks and consequently extraordinary vulnerable in case of accidents and terrorist attacks. Danger for lives and enormous economic consequences ask also for technical solutions of prevention and limitation of damage.

"We are extremely pleased to welcome AP Sensing, which is known for its reliable fiber optic linear heat detection system, offering an excellent value for the market" says Dr. Rehak, Manager of TUSEC.

Especially in the area of fire monitoring AP Sensing is creating a new value by providing important information to the control center throughout the entire emergency timeframe, while common detection technology can
just notify an alarm.


AP Sensing’s unique “Linear Heat Series” – a fiber optic linear heat detection system for special hazard applications - has been designed to minimize operational costs and to work with maximum reliability even under adverse conditions. The protection concept perfectly suits today’s  safety demands and safes  money whenever it comes to large –sized applications in hazardous environments like road & rail tunnels, conveyor belts,  cable trays, production facilities, refineries etc.
