Beam detector
Beam detector
Beam detector is used for detection of smoke in remote areas.
It comes in two parts, one installed for fire detection just opposite to each other in beam detector by using a beam of light to project across the area where smoke is present.
It is also known as optical beam smoke detector. They are the replacement of smoke detectors in the areas like spacious rooms, function halls, open areas, high ceiling, open shed, warehouses.
With the use of beam detectors, the cost can be reduced compared to a smoke detector. These are used in large commercial, industrial buildings to detect the fire when a fire incident has occurred.
Principle operation of beam detectors
This works on the principle of light obscuration. When the transmitted light percentage is blocked by the smoke the detector activates and sends a signal, It uses beam light to project across an area to monitor for smoke emitted by an incipient fire. When the smoke is present in the beam path.
Types

Areas that beam detectors should not be fitted
- Spaces where a high level of ambient light is in normal condition.
- Areas with an excessive amount of dust, smoke, water vapor are in normal condition.
- Areas where temperature changes rapidly.
- Areas of surfaces subject to vibration or movements.
