Abstract
An Auxiliary Power Unit ('APU') for an aircraft with reduced weight, but which at the same time meets all fire-related airworthiness standards. The APU comprises a metallic housing having mounts for attaching the housing to an external structure. The APU further comprises at least one temperature sensor suitable for detecting temperature under fire conditions. The temperature sensor is coupled with the mounts for sensing temperature at the housing.
