Functional Description
When the unit is activated, the transmitter emits a light beam at a known
intensity. As the light passes through the smoke plume, some or all the light is
diverted.
The sensor head consists of two components, a light source (transmitter) and a
light detector (receiver).
The light detector measures the amount of light received, and compares this
with the amount of light being emitted. The difference between the two values is
opacity.
