A heat detection device that uses a sensing element comprised of two metal strips having a different coefficient of expansion. The element deflects in opposite directions depending on the temperature to which it is exposed. Element deflection beyond a preset range results in an alarm.  2, fiche 2, Anglais, - bimetallic%20heat%20detector

[...] [le] détecteur à bilame utilise [parfois] deux métaux dont les caractéristiques de dilatation sont différentes. De minces lames des métaux sont reliées ensemble et une ou les deux extrémités sont connectées au circuit d'alarme. Sous l'effet de la chaleur, un des métaux se dilate plus rapidement que l'autre ce qui fait courber ou cambrer la lame. La courbure de la lame ouvre ou ferme le circuit d'alarme [...] Un autre type de détecteur à bilame utilise un disque déclencheur et un micro-contact [...]  2, fiche 2, Français, - d%C3%A9tecteur%20thermique%20%C3%A0%20bilame

Fluid flow switches are used to protect water cooled equipment from possible damage due to cooling flow failure. A sensing element is used to detect fluid flow and activate a relay if the flow falls below a preset level. Flow switches are frequently used on vacuum deposition systems to protect the pump and target, on EPI reactors, furnaces, and similar microelectronic production equipment.  1, fiche 3, Anglais, - fluid%20flow%20switch

A sensing instrument that continuously measures and records the density of smoke from the attenuation of a light beam passing through the smoke. When the smoke density exceeds some preset value, an alarm goes off.  1, fiche 4, Anglais, - smoke%20density%20monitor

Forced Air Wood Furnaces. Central wood-burning furnaces are controlled by a wall mounted thermostat in the living area. Temperature and fan controls are the same as those found on oil and gas furnaces. Unlike room heaters, which produce a steady heat output by periodic manual adjustments of the draft control, most wood furnaces operate in cycles. A cycle starts with the thermostat sensing that heat is needed in the room where it is located. It signals the furnace control system which opens the combustion air damper and a hot fire develops. When the air inside the furnace's sheet metal casing gets hot, a preset fan control starts the circulating blower and the warm air is moved through the ducts to all areas of the house.  1, fiche 5, Anglais, - forced%20air%20wood%20furnace
