Firebeam

Firebeam
Product Code: F/CHBM/

The Firebeam system includes a motorised head unit containing an infra-red transmitter and receiver, a ground level controller and prism reflector. Making use of the prism reflector the returned infra-red beam is analysed for smoke contamination and registers a fire condition at a pre- determined level. At ground level the controller unit is used to make operational adjustments.

The standard Protection system covers a range of 5 to 40 metres, 2 further range kits are available, a 40 to 80 metres kit that utilises 4 reflectors and finally an 80 to 100 metres kit that makes use of 9 reflectors. Beam detectors offer a cost effective solution for protecting large open spaces. One single unit installed on a wall can detect smoke over an area up to 1500m² (BS5839), which is beyond that of traditional point detectors.
