FIREBEAM XTRA-AF, Firebeam Xtra Anti Fog, including controller and 1 reflector, 7-70m

The standard Fire Beam Xtra package comes complete with the head unit, the low level controller, a single reflector, a user manual and a 3mm allen key. This will enable you to cover distances up to 70 metres. 

The Anti-Fog version of the Firebeam Xtra, is for use in applications where condensing and fog may be an issue. The new Fire Beam Xtra now covers up to 160 metres Soon after we launched the original Fire Beam back in 2005 it became the professional choice in beam detection. Not wanting to rest on our laurels, our world renowned design team has listened to our customers and we have now created the Fire Beam Xtra. Incorporating many of your suggestions and adding our own new innovations, the new Xtra model is a permanent replacement for the original Fire Beam and the outgoing Plus model. The result has further refined this already extraordinary market leader. With new enhanced optics you can cover distances up to 160 metres, meaning for distances over 100 metres you no longer need to use two beams, saving both time and money.

Two main attributes make The Fire Beam stand out from the crowd. A motorised beam head that continually self-aligns, and a low level controller from which all major functions can be performed.

The Motorised Head

Up until now, aligning an optical beam could well have been a nightmare, often giving uncertain results that can lead to false alarms. By utilising motors within the beam head The Fire Beam can make commissioning a safer and more accurate procedure. Our unique method of using high quality stepper motors allows us to make micro adjustments of just 1/40 of 1 degree to the beam head. This is automatically controlled by software which finds and continually monitors its position in relation to the reflector. A simple commissioning procedure ensures that you achieve perfect alignment every time and that your beam will keep that alignment.

Building movement is the enemy of beam detection, as the smallest movement of a building through heat changes or settlement will move a beam off its target (imagine a couple of degrees of movement in a 100m building). The Fire Beam will continually monitor any movement and re-align itself automatically. How many times have you had to return to a site and re-align beams at high level, and at what expense?

The Low Level Controller

Low level control means just that. Once you have the head in place and wired in, you can make any changes and adjustments you want from ground level. You can:

  • commission the beam from ground level
  • manually move the beam head
  • view the air quality
  • view the status of the beam
  • change sensitivity thresholds
  • change the time to fire and fault
  • make the alarm latching or non latching
  • turn on and off the green flashing light
  • see fire and fault counts
  • see how much compensation has been made for dirt build up (you will only have to clean the head and reflector when it needs it)
  • complete a self test
  • turn the beam on and off (it will reset itself after 8 hours)
  • adjust output and receiver settings
  • and even monitor the temperature at the beam head
