FireSense SSF-BEAM is an intelligent  Flashscan ™  addressable projected beam smoke sensor. 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.

Listed for operation from -30°C to 55°C, SSF-BEAM can be used in open area applications to provide early warning in environments where temperature extremes exceed the capability of other types of smoke detection.

SSF-BEAM consists of a transmitter/receiver unit at the head end 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.

SSF-BEAM 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.
