HarcoSemco’s burst duct detection sensors are engineered to identify rapid temperature changes that signal air leaks within duct systems or fan cases—an essential safety feature for aircraft. Such leaks pose serious fire and overheating risks to surrounding structures and components.
These sensors incorporate dual thermocouple elements for redundancy and an integrated high-temperature harness assembly for simplified installation. Designed for fast response, they quickly detect thermal variations and include cold junction compensation RTDs in the backshell to ensure accurate readings under extreme conditions.
