DESCRIPTION:
Projected photoelectric beam smoke detection is
used to protect large areas such as gymnasiums,
lecture halls, theaters, warehouses, atriums, etc.,
where spot type smoke detection is impractical. The
Simplex 2098-9207A is a sophisticated
microprocessor based long range beam smoke
detector consisting of a separate transmitter and
matching receiver providing accurate and repeatable
monitoring of smoke passing through the light beam.
The transmitter produces a crystal controlled, infrared
beam which is monitored by the receiver to determine
smoke obscuration. When the receiver measures
beam intensity below a preset, selectable threshold,
an alarm output is generated. Standard alarm delay is
30 seconds. For special applications where fast
developing fires might be likely (such as airplane
hangars), a five second delay setting is available.
(Contact Simplex for application guidance).
Complete beam blockage and dust accumulation that
reduces signal level to 50% will initiate a trouble
output. Intermittent beam blockage, such as cleaning,
is ignored. Tamper switches monitor the access
covers and cause a circuit trouble if activated.
Installation is simplified due to convenient beam
alignment adjustments and easy receiver calibration.
Although external light sources must be considered
when locating the beam detector pair, the transmitter
beam has a format signature that allows the receiver
to minimize interference from such sources.
