FIREbeam Xtra User Manual

Position
A roof is considered flat unless the height of the apex is greater than 0.6m. If the roof is flat
the FIREbeam Xtra system can be placed anywhere under the roof between 0.3m and 0.6m
below the roof, up to a maximum height of 40m from the floor.
The FIREbeam Xtra has a detection area of 7.5m either side of the beam. If the roof is
considered to have an apex, place the FIREbeam Xtra system 0.3m to 0.6m down from the
top of the apex, up to a maximum height of 40m from the floor.
The maximum protected area either side of the beam can be extended by 1% for every
degree of roof pitch, see the example below (please check with your local regulations):
NOTE: Careful design consideration should be made when
positioning beams and reflectors in environments that can be
susceptible to condensation i.e. warehouses near to water that
have areas open to the outside environment or that are exposed
to quick extreme changes in temperature. To assist with this
problem that can affect all beam detectors we produce an
anti-fog kit
comprising of a specially coated reflector and lens
cover. Individual reflectors are also available.
