Self Adjusting Optical Beam Smoke Detector
Product Code: F/CHBM/SAReduce the risk of expensive false alarms and misalignment faults.
Channel Safety Systems now offer a reflective optical beam smoke detector with a motorised head, that can align itself when commissioning, and continually correct itself against building movement.
The fire beam protection 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 infrared 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 meters, 2 further range kits are available, a 40 to 80 meter kit that utilises 4 reflectors and finally an 80 to 100 meter kit that makes use of 9 reflectors.

Motorised Head
The fire beam incorporates microprocessor controlled motors that intelligently align the head at all times. When first commissioning the head accurately aligns itself, and in operation the head will re align should there be building movement, a problem with new build settlement and environmental change. The fire beam’s unique ability to self align means that high level re adjustment is no longer required, saving time, disruption and importantly cost. The motorised head means greater reliability that will reduce troublesome false alarms.
The fire beam protection system uses only 3mA at all times, so in most cases can happily be zone powered. Compatible with most major fire panels the simplicity of our system usually means no extra power supply, meaning easier installation and a lower installation cost. (Please refer for details).
The fire beam has been designed to fully comply with EN 54 part 12. and exceeds European standards, in particular BS5839 part 1.
What makes it so good?
The fire beam ground level controller has been especially designed to take away the need for high level maintenance, with a simple menu system viewed through a LCD screen all adjustments can be made at ground level including a test procedure. This can save you time and money.
Compensation
The fire beam will automatically compensate for a build up of dust over the lenses. From the LCD display you can check the current status and only clean the lenses when required.
Change Latching Mode
The fire beam relays can be set to latch on alarm or auto reset depending on your individual requirement.
Other Features
Built into the fire beam protection system is an IP rating of IP65. The system is fully sealed against contamination ingress, which means that it is possible to place the fire beam in unfriendly environments and could even be pressure washed.
