PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The FireSense SS-BEAM1224 is a conventional projected beam smoke sensor. It is uniquely suited for
protecting open areas with high ceilings where other methods of smoke detection are difficult to install and
maintain. Alignment is quickly accomplished via an optical sight and a 2-digit signal strength meter incorporated
into the product.
Listed for operation from -30ºC to 55ºC, the SS-BEAM1224 can be used in open area applications to provide early
warning in environments where temperature extremes exceed the capability of other types of smoke detection.
The SS-BEAM1224 consists of a transmitter/receiver unit at the head end and a reflector. When smoke enters the
area between the unit and the reflector, it causes a reduction in the signal and when the smoke level reaches the
predetermined threshold, an alarm is activated.
The SS-BEAM1224 has four standard sensitivity selections along with two Acclimate settings. When either of the
two Acclimate settings are selected the detector will automatically adjust its sensitivity using advanced software
algorithms to select the optimum sensitivity for the specific environment.

In this step you will be fine-tuning the optics to the reflector. To provide feedback of the signal level coming from the reflector the dual digital display readout will be used. Due to the large distance range that the detector can operate over it is necessary that the detector operate with many different settings of “electronic amplifier...
  • Page 5 RODUCT HEET SS-BEAM1224 Conventional Beam Detector Installation Guide Step 3. Final Gain Adjustment In this step, the detector will electronically adjust its internal gain one final time. It is necessary to complete this step with the outer housing installed since the housing will change the amount of light received from the reflector.
  • Page 6 RODUCT HEET SS-BEAM1224 Conventional Beam Detector Installation Guide Sensitivity Selection The detector has six sensitivity selections. Each of these selections is only acceptable over a specific distance separation between the detector and the reflector per UL268. The chart below is used to determine which selections are acceptable for your installed distance.
