Fitting  the refl ective beam detector

Remove the detector housing before installation 

to prevent it becoming dislodged during the in-

stallation process.

Position the beam and refl ectors on solid struc-

tures at between 0.3 and 0.6 metres below ceiling 

level. The correct number of refl ectors  (prisms) 

should be mounted directly opposite to and fac-

ing the beam detector. Do not install refl ectors 

on glass or other refl ecting surfaces.

Ensure that there is a clear line of sight to the 

detector, taking care that no moving objects 

i.e. doors, mechanical lifting equipment etc, will 

interfere with the beam path.  

Using the template provided mark the 4 fi xing 

points on the structure and drill holes. The rear 

mounting plate of the beam detector assembly 

has 4 keyhole apertures to allow easy installation 

onto the 4 fi xing points.

Connect the loop wiring to the terminal block at 

the back of the beam detector (Fig 5). The small 

2-pin connector on the left is not used. The beam 

detector is polarity sensitive and will operate only 

if wired correctly.

Secure the beam detector assembly to the fi xing 

points and replace the housing.
