Install an Optical Beam Smoke Detector
5.1 Structure
Optical Beam Smoke Detectors must be mounted on stable stationary surfaces for proper operation:
to prevent movement and subsequent misalignment. A surface that moves, shifts, vibrates, or warps
over time will cause false alarm or trouble conditions. Initial selection of a proper mounting surface
will eliminate false alarm or nuisance signals
In cases where only one stable mounting surface as defined above can be used, and Reflected
Optical Beam Smoke Detector has been chosen, the Transceiver should be mounted to the stable
surface and the Reflector should be mounted to the less stable surface. The Reflector has a much
greater tolerance for the unstable mounting locations defined above.
DO NOT MOUNT the Optical Beam Smoke Detector on corrugated metal walls, sheet metal walls,
external building sheathing, external siding, suspended ceilings, steel web trusses, rafters, non-
structural beam, joists or other such surfaces.
