The Fire Beam Product Range

Industry Leaders In Motorised Optical Beam Smoke Detection

Beam detection offers an economical way to protect large areas from fire, but has often been seen as unreliable. With the Fire Beam’s advanced technology, reliability is no longer an issue and beam detection can now be used with complete confidence.

The Fire Beam Protection System

What Makes The Fire Beam Different?

Two main features make The Fire Beam product range stand out from the crowd. A motorised beam head that continually self-aligns, and low-level control (wireless or wired) from which all major functions can be performed.

The Fire Beam will auto-align itself to the centre of the reflector when commissioning and will automatically keep alignment if building movement occurs. This intelligent motorisation means less false alarms, saving time, resources, reputations and money.

Our advanced technology, simplicity of design and ease of use have resulted in the most reliable optical beam detection available today. Backed by a five year guarantee and industry acclaimed technical support for years of trouble free service.

Intelligent Motorised Beam Head

Until now, aligning an optical beam has often been problematic, giving uncertain results that can lead to false alarms. Just a couple of degrees of movement in a 100m building, through heat changes or settlement, can easily move a beam off its target.

The Fire Beam uses motors within the beam head to continually monitor any movement and automatically re-align itself. Our technology allows us to make micro adjustments of just 1/40 of 1 degree to the beam head, automatically controlled by software which finds and continually monitors its position in relation to the reflector.

The Fire Beam’s simple commissioning procedure ensures that you achieve perfect alignment every time and the beam will retain its alignment. This reduces maintenance costs and prevents having to manually re-align beams at high level.

Fire Beam Low-Level Control Options

Low-Level Control Options

Once the beam head is in place and set up, you can easily make any desired changes and adjustments from ground level.

The Fire Beam range offers two different options for low-level control. Choose either the wired low-level controller with the Fire Beam Xtra, or take advantage of wireless Bluetooth® control via an App with the Fire Beam BLUE.

Our advanced technology will greatly reduce commissioning time. It is commonplace for us to see 25 beams fully commissioned in less than one day. You simply start with one beam and move onto the next, then the next, all from ground level. Spending hours working at height trying to align beams is a thing of the past.

Change Settings from Ground Level

  • Commission the beam from ground level.

  • Manually move the beam head.

  • View the air quality.

  • View the status of the beam.

  • Change sensitivity thresholds.
  • Change the time to fire and fault.
  • See fire and fault counts.

  • Make the alarm latching or non-latching.
  • Complete a self test.

  • Turn the beam on/off (resets after 8 hours).

  • Adjust output and receiver settings.

  • Monitor temperature at beam head.

Additional Features

160 Metre Range: With new enhanced optics you can cover distances up to 160 metres, meaning for distances over 100 metres you no longer need to use two beams, saving both time and money.

IP65 Rating: means no ingress whatsoever making The Fire Beam ideal for environments, such as food processing halls, as it can be hosed down. IP65 also means nasty little creatures can’t set up home inside and jeopardise the effectiveness of the detector.

Easy Clean: Both the BLUE and the Xtra feature easy to clean faces, due to their flat surfaces. Unlike other beams, all the moving optics are safely encased inside the waterproof enclosure so you won’t accidentally knock the beam out of alignment. This means The Fire Beam models can easily be cleaned from ground level using something like a no-climb pole and suitable attachment.

IP65 Rated Fire Beam

Reduce Costs. Reduce False Alarms.

Using The Fire Beam range will save you time and money, and will reduce false alarms

Great cost savings can be made over spot and air sampling systems. For example, just one beam can be used instead of 16 spot detectors so cost savings can be considerable. Furthermore, wiring to a single head is more cost effective than fitting yards of air sampling tubing.

Our advanced technology will greatly reduce commissioning time. Spending hours working at height trying to align beams is a thing of the past. Furthermore, self-alignment in normal service means not having to go back and re-align the beam after building movement – again saving time and the expense of lifting equipment, not to mention the disruption this causes your customers.
