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.
