  • Page 4: Distance And Position Guidelines

    1.1 Distance The standard ESP FIREbeam is suitable for distances of 5m to 40m to the reflector. If you require 40m to 80m you will need to use the mid range reflector extension kit. For ranges of 80m to 100m you will require the long range reflector extension kit.

    1.2 Position A roof is considered flat unless the height of the apex is greater then 0.6m. If the roof is flat the ESP FIREbeam 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.

    Page 6 of 19 ESP FIREbeam – Installation Manual Installing, Commissioning and Testing 2.1 Step 1 - Mounting the Head Screw the head backing plate to the wall - always try to use as sturdy a location as possible, such as brick or major structural steels (avoid mounting to outer metal cladding etc).
  • Page 7: Step 3 - Mounting The Controller

    ESP FIREbeam – Installation Manual Page 7 of 19 2.3 Step 3 - Mounting the Controller Important mount the controller at eye level and ensure easy access. Screw in through holes provided outside of the rubber seal. Wire to head using colour coded terminals.
  • Page 8: Step 4 - Commissioning

    Fast mode allows x 4 times faster motor response and it may be quicker to commission each beam in turn. Once commissioning is complete the ESP FIREbeam will automatically revert to normal low power mode - (3.5mA).
  • Page 9: Stage Three - Manual Alignment

    ESP FIREbeam – Installation Manual Page 9 of 19 Receiver sensitivity starts off at 5% and output power starts at 10%. The beam will start by raising its sensitivity first and can rise all the way up to 100%, after this the output power will rise. The objective of pre-alignment is to adjust the output power to the correct levels for the distance to be covered.
  • Page 10 Page 10 of 19 ESP FIREbeam – Installation Manual NOW place or uncover the reflector on the blank wall directly opposite the beam head ensuring there is a clear path through any obstructions such as structural steels etc. NOTE: It is important that there is a clear line of sight between the reflector and beam head. The beam must see at least 200mm of clear space around the reflector to enable the beam to see the edges of the reflector to allow successful auto alignment in the following stage.
  • Page 11: Stage Four - Auto-Alignment

    First you will see the sensitivity and power readings drop if the received signal is over 100%. Once at 100% or if the reading is under 100% the ESP FIREbeam will automatically move its y and x axis until it centres itself onto the middle of the reflector.

    (once cleaned you should instigate an auto alignment to re- calibrate the beams settings). It is possible that you may see a negative number here, this can happen when the ESP FIREbeam has been commissioned in a ‘dirty’ atmosphere such as builders dust which, once cleared, the beam then compensates for.
