Sensor Model
BEAM 1224 is
a 4-wire
conventional
projected
beam smoke
detector.
It is
uniquely
suited for
protecting
open areas
with high
ceilings
where other
methods of
smoke
detection
are
difficult to
install and
maintain.
Alignment
is quickly
accomplished
via an
optical
sight and a
2-digit
signal
strength
meter
incorporated
into the
product.
BEAM 1224
consists of
a
transmitter/receiver
unit and a
reflector.
When smoke
enters the
area between
the unit and
the
reflector it
causes a
reduction in
the signal
and, when
the smoke
level
reaches the
predetermined
threshold,
an alarm is
activated.
BEAM 1224
has four
standard
sensitivity
selections
along with
two
Acclimate
settings.
When either
of the two
Acclimate
settings are
selected the
detector
will
automatically
adjust its
sensitivity
using
advanced
software
algorithms
to select
the optimum
sensitivity
for the
specific
environment.
