ProReact Linear Heat Detection for Floating Roof Tanks
Protecting critical infrastructure — automatically, reliably, and without compromise.
Floating roof tanks present unique fire risks due to the presence of highly flammable materials, mechanical movement, and exposure to harsh environmental conditions. Thermocable’s ProReact Linear Heat Detection (LHD) offers a proven solution that delivers continuous, cable-based fire detection across the entire rim seal perimeter — detecting and responding to fire threats before they escalate.

Why ProReact LHD for Floating Roof Tanks?
Unlike traditional point-based sensors, ProReact LHD provides uninterrupted coverage along the full length of the tank’s rim seal. This means fires can be detected anywhere along the cable, even in hard-to-access or obscured areas where conventional detectors may fail.
- Early Detection = Rapid Response
Fires in oil and gas storage tanks can escalate in seconds. ProReact LHD identifies abnormal temperature rises immediately, triggering suppression systems to extinguish fires in under 20 seconds - without the need for human intervention. - Seamless Integration with Suppression Systems
ProReact LHD interfaces directly with fire alarm control panels and suppression systems, enabling automated activation of extinguishing agents. This integration ensures that fires are not only detected but also contained and neutralized swiftly, minimizing damage and downtime. - Engineered for Harsh Environments
With options like nylon-coated cables for chemical resistance and high-temperature silicone sleeves, ProReact is built to withstand the demanding conditions of floating roof tanks - from UV exposure to volatile vapours. - Low Maintenance, High Reliability
Designed as a “fit and forget” solution, ProReact LHD offers long-term durability and minimal maintenance, making it ideal for remote or unmanned installations.

Value Over Alternatives
While spot detectors and thermal cameras may offer localised detection, they often struggle with:
- Blind spots due to tank geometry
- False alarms in dusty or humid conditions
- Complex installation and calibration
ProReact LHD eliminates these issues with:
- Continuous linear sensing
- Robust environmental tolerance
- Simple installation and scalable design
Saving Livelihoods, One Metre at a Time
Whether protecting energy infrastructure or safeguarding communities from catastrophic fire events, ProReact LHD embodies Thermocable’s mission: to detect and respond before disaster strikes. In floating roof tanks, every metre of cable is a metre of protection — and peace of mind.
