Floodline® Miulti-8 High-Sensitivity Detection Cable

Enhanced multi-zone cable for sensitive environments

The cable has a fine multi-filament cellulosic outer covering that draws liquid into detection cores, allowing the system to react to the smallest amount of water, conductive liquid and condensation. Miulti-8 High-Sensitivity Detection Cable provides visual evidence of where and when the cable is wet.

One length of cable provides up to eight separately reporting zones. The zone changeover points along the cable are provided by Floodline® junction boxes. The cable is available in any length to provide as much coverage as required, typically between 5 metres and 15 metres.

The cable can be attached to the underside of pipes, inside or outside lagging, laid in drip trays and catchment troughs and fixed to soffits and ceilings. The cable is activated by contact with any conductive liquid anywhere along its entire length. The cable can be wet and dried any number of times and returned to use.

Frequently asked questions

What is the primary feature of the Multi-8 High Sensitivity Detection Cable? + -

It's a multi-zone, water-sensitive cable designed to provide up to eight separately reporting leak detection zones from a single cable length.

What does “high sensitivity” refer to in this cable? + -

It's designed to detect water and conductive liquids at any point along its entire length with enhanced sensitivity.

Can this cable detect both water and oil leaks? + -

The primary information available suggests it's for water leak detection.

Is the cable reusable after a leak detection? + -

Yes, it can be wetted and dried multiple times, provided it's not contaminated with substances that permanently alter its electrical characteristics. If soluble contamination occurs, it can be washed, dried, and reused.

How are the detection zones established along the cable? + -

Zone changeover points are provided by traditional Floodline 8-zone junction boxes or Andel's Plug And Play system.

What lengths are typically available for this cable? + -

It's available in various lengths, typically between 5 metres and 15 metres per zone.

What standards does this cable comply with? + -

It complies with stringent fire, smoke, and halogen tests under European fire performance requirements (e.g., EN 50575, classified as Euroclass Dca-s2,d0 or Eca depending on the version).

What is the warranty period for this product? + -

Customers can receive a 10-year warranty on all Floodline leak detection products when subscribed to the Andel Service and Maintenance Plan.
