Auto-aligning beam detector broadens accessibility of advanced smoke detection

A new beam detector from FFE self-aligns in just one minute and offers a sophisticated solution to those wishing to protect large commercial and public spaces with a simple, one person installation process. A lot of engineering work and knowledge has been put in to the detector itself. These features ensure that anyone can align a beam detector perfectly, because the experience and expert knowledge of beam detection has been engineered into the product.

In addition, the detector overcomes common issues such as false alarms caused by building settlement that can compromise safety;  and visible units that compromises aesthetics. 

FFE says spot detection and standard beam units couldn’t offer sufficient fire protection to a range of infrastructures, including historic and listed buildings, buildings with high ceilings or areas of high condensation, and buildings with large skylights and glass atriums. 

The Fireray One combats these issues with FFE’s patented Light Cancellation Technology, enabling installation in places that could be exposed to increased sunlight without the fear of a false alarm.

Oliver Burstall, MD of FFE, comments: “Our experience and understanding of the industry enabled us to develop a smoke beam detector that works for both the end-user and the buildings in which it operates. Its advanced, unique features offer a simple solution to a very complex problem faced by thousands of building fire officers and architects around the world. We look forward to introducing this new product at the show and encourage attendees to visit our stand, where the Fireray One will be demonstrated.”
