Commision an Optical Beam Smoke Detector
Once Optical Beam Smoke Detectors are installed, as part of an automatic fire alarm system, it
needs to be commissioned and set to work before it can be formally handed over to the purchaser.
Commissioning is a process that involves thorough testing of the system. Every Optical Beam
Smoke Detector (and all other devices of the system) must be activated in order to establish that the
system operates correctly and in accordance with the recommendations of the locally used
standards and codes.
The Commissioning of Optical Beam Smoke Detectors need to encompass at least the following
checks.
Have the Optical Beam Smoke Detectors been installed suitably? (structurally, electrically)
Are the Optical Beam Smoke Detectors aligned adequately? (no obstructions, reflections)
Are the Optical Beam Smoke Detectors responding accordingly to Faults and Fire Alarm
Tests?
Are the Fault and Fire Alarm tests reported to the Fire Panel? Have the Optical Beam
Smoke Detectors been properly connected to the Fire Panel?
