Provided is a cable-type
detector. The cable-type
detector is characterized in that according to the structure of a
temperature sensing cable, a meltable NTC characteristic material layer is axially arranged outside a first elastic
metal conductor serving as a cable core, the meltable NTC characteristic material layer is wound with a second elastic
metal conductor, and then the formed structure is coated with an
extrusion molding outer sheath layer; the two ends of the first elastic
metal conductor and the two ends of the second elastic metal conductor are connected with a
signal processing device and a terminal
resistor R respectively, and a closed-circuit
signal collection circuit is formed. The other structure is characterized in that after the first elastic metal conductor is coated with the meltable NTC characteristic material layer, the meltable NTC characteristic material layer is wound with the second conductor and wound with a metal conducting layer simultaneously, and then the formed structure is coated with the outer sheath layer through
extrusion molding. The
signal processing device detects changes of resistance between the two conductors in real time; if the resistance decreases and a
short circuit occurs, a constant temperature
alarm signal is sent out; if the resistance does not decrease, but the
short circuit occurs, a short-circuit fault
alarm signal is output. The structure is simple, the cost is low, the sensitivity of
temperature sensing detection is high, the function of distinguishing a short-circuit fault, not caused by fire, of the detection conductors can be achieved, and the electrical
signal processing device can output alarm signals with multiple states.
