  • Beam Detector

Suppose you are planning to invest in the best beam detectors that don't break the bank. In that case, you are in the right place to pick the best, as Palladium Safety Solutions Pvt. Ltd. has been manufacturing beam detectors of excellent quality for a long time now.

Generally, a beam detector is a type of detector that detects both smoke and objects and is used in fire alarm systems. It raises the alarm when it detects smoke/objects, thus preventing unfortunate fire accidents. You can find two types of beam detectors in the market, reflector type and receiver-transmitter type.

The receiver-transmitter consists of the receiver and a transmitter where the IR light beams will be transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver continuously. If smoke blocks the IR light beams and prevents it from reaching the receiver, the alarm sound starts to give alerts. The distance between the transmitter and receiver can be around 5-100 meters.

In the reflector type, you will find a reflector and a unit. Usually, the IR beams sent from the receiver-transmitter unit are reflected in between the reflector and the unit. If there are more than three reflectors, the distance between the reflector and the unit can vary from 5 to 50 meters, whereas if there is only one reflector, then the distance between the two is 5-35 meters.

Conventional Reflective Beam Detector is a reflective infrared beam detector, which must be used together with a reflector. With excellent built-in microprocessor, the detector has strong ability of analysis andjudgment. The detector can automatically carry out systemadjustment, compensationof variation of ambient data, and judgment of fire and fault through fixed algorithm, andindicate these states by LED and signal output terminals.

How does it work?

Now that you have learned about the conventional beam detector, let us learn about the working principle, i.e., when does the alarm go on.
When the IR light beam has been interrupted by a solid object for more than a few seconds, then the alarm starts to give an alert. The beam detectors can easily recognize whether the obstructor is a solid object or smoke by evaluating the percentage of IR light rays that block the receiver.

Features

The conventional reflective beam detectors sold here at Palladium Safety Solutions Pvt. Ltd. is a PSS – BD model reflective infrared beam detector that comes with a reflector.
The in-built microprocessor in this beam detector can do accurate analysis and judgment. This is possible by a fixed algorithm that helps the processor to carry out an analysis between real and faults alerts and finally gives out alerts by states by LED and signal output terminals.
It also has a self-testing function that helps the detector to monitor the internal fault of the detector. The detector is designed for optical paths and has a strong anti-jamming capability, seal design, and anti-corrosion and waterproof features that promise the product's longevity. The supply current consumed here is 3.5mA.
The supply voltage is 10.2 to 30V DC, and the supply and constant current vary from 3.5mA to 17mA. The temperature at which it is detected is -10C t0 +55C. All these specifications adhere to industrial standards.

How to maintain it?

You get an emitter and a receiver while purchasing one beam detector here. You need not worry about the maintenance part because the beam detector supports automatic calibration that helps easy debugging of the device.

How to install it?

Installation is an important factor that you must consider while buying a beam detector. The beam detector that comes with an emitter and receiver is simple and easy to install as it has an excellent arrangement for the optical path.

Conclusion:

This type of beam detector is mostly fixed in high ceilings like basketball courts, movie theatres, warehouses, and buying here at Palladium. It can be an intelligent investment if you are purchasing the best beam detectors here they provide quality goods at affordable prices.

Beam Detector work on the principle of light obscuration, where the presence of smoke blocks some of the light from the beam, typically through either absorbance or light scattering. Once a certain percentage of the transmitted light has been blocked by the smoke, a fire is signalled.
