Edward EC-100R Beam Detector With Reflector (HSN 85319000)

Edward EC-50R Beam Detector With Reflector comprises a transmitter and receiver in a single enclosure as well as is usually installed between 19 inches and 24 inches below the ceiling. The transmitter emits an invisible infrared light beam that is reflect via a prism mount directly opposite and with a clear line of sight. Also, the reflected infrared light is detect by the receiver and analyzed. Besides, smoke in the beam path will reduce the received infrared light proportionally to the density of the smoke. The detector analyzes this attenuation or obscuration of light and acts accordingly. Furthermore, detectors are typically mount within ñ30 feet (9.14 m) of a potential fire source. Consult your Authority Having Jurisdiction for spacing requirements specific to your locality. Reflective beam smoke detectors are ideal for large open areas such as warehouses, hotel atriums, industrial plants, and school gymnasiums. An infrared signal is project out of the transmitter optics to the reflector placed at the opposite end of the detection zone. The signal has reflected the receiver where it is analyze for fire and trouble. Additionally, the Est Edwards EC-100R must be positioned correctly to minimize the detection time. The maximum lateral distance on either side of the beam is found to be typically 30 feet (9.1 m) for satisfactory detection under flat ceilings, providing a total area coverage of 19,800 square feet (60 feet x 330 feet), or 1844 square meters (18.3 x 100.6 m).
