agen or listing may be in pro Consult factory for latest status UL Listed Beam Smoke Detector Gamewell FCI projected beam detector offers vital fire detec in applications where spot type are not adequate This is four wire 24 VDC and in both the transmitter and re Features include automatic for signal drift or dirty alignment LEDs for simple setup adjustment and three field adjust sensitivity settings This detector linear protection from 30 to feet 9.144 to 97.539 m infrared signal is sent from the via an optical system At feet 97.536 m the diameter of infrared signal is approximately 9.5 feet 2.896 m The wide angle beam simplifies alignment and increases stability is important that the projected beam smoke detector is positioned correctly to the detection time Experiments have shown that smoke from a fire not rise directly upwards The smoke fans out in a shape due air currents and heat layering effects fire alarm condition occurs when the smoke obscures the infrared beam The to detect a fire condition depends on the location of the smoke beam within premises the volume of smoke produced the construction of the roof and considerations Description Gamewell FCI projected beam smoke detector is a transmitter which projects modulated infrared light beam on the receiver unit The received signal is in the controller Should smoke be present in the beam for a period of 8 to 10 seconds a fire relay is activated system is designed to be mounted so that the beam will project between 1 2 feet 0.305 to 0.61 m below and parallel to the roof or ceiling level at ranges to 320 feet 97.536 m The maximum lateral detection range is 24.5 feet m on either side of the actual beam Detection smoke is present in the beam path the received signal is reduced by a determined by the density of the smoke If the smoke reduces the signal for a period between 8 to 10 seconds the fire alarm relay is activated Beam CS 2153 A 1 of 4 unit double pressed sheet finish white enamel 4.95 lbs 2.245

automatically resets if the is not present fire alarm relay may be latching or non latching close alarm switch for Gain Control AGC degradation of signal strength by component aging or buildup of dirt surfaces will not generate an alarm because of compensation provided by an circuit The AGC operates by comparing the received signal against a at predetermined time intervals Differences of more than 7 are cor by the automatic selection of gain stages AGC interval is factory set to 1.5 hours calibrated test filter is available to test and verify the sensitivity setting of the beam smoke detectors When this compensating capability reaches limit the microprocessor automatically generates a trouble signal The pro beam smoke detectors shall also signal a trouble condition if the beam a blockage of 90 for more than twenty seconds and automatically resets normal when the blockage is removed projected beam smoke detector s shall be UL Listed for these applications and RF transient protection is integral to the internal circuitry of the beam smoke detector to minimize false alarm potential Specifications contractor shall furnish and install where indicated on the plans projected type smoke detectors The detector shall have a range of 30 to 320 feet to 97.536 m The projected beam smoke detector shall be field adjust to one of the obscuration settings of 25 50 or 70 per span settings shall be capable of being verified with calibrated filters to side spacing shall be a maximum of 45 feet 13.716 m on center projected beam smoke detector shall possess circuitry that automatically for normal ambient changes in the intensity of the emitted beam The microprocessor shall provide compensation for a change in re signal value over time caused by contamination of the optics Since a change with time appears as a slow change in the beam signal the compensates in such a manner that the signal moves closer to reference data at a rate of approximately 1 per hour adjustments shall be made at the low level control unit Beam detectors that adjustments at the receiver are not acceptable beam smoke detectors shall be Gamewell FCI part number 72051 2 of 4 Beam CS 2153 A Diagram CONTROLLER TO
