It utilizes an 850 nm infrared optical beam to detect smoke density over distances up to 393 feet while maintaining consistent sensitivity. The system supports one or two receivers per controller and is designed for precise alignment and long-term operational stability. Its construction and electrical characteristics ensure compatibility with standard fire alarm control panels and regulated life safety systems. Key Features: Projected Beam Smoke Detection: Uses infrared beam technology to monitor smoke obscuration across large open spaces. Wide Operating Range: Supports detection distances from 16.5 to 393 feet for flexible installation. Adjustable Alarm Threshold: Configurable sensitivity range from 25% to 60% obscuration. Low Power Consumption: Efficient current draw for both controller and transmitter components. Robust Environmental Rating: IP54 enclosure rating for protection against dust and moisture. Visual Status Indication: LED indicators provide clear fire, fault, and system status feedback. Multi-Receiver Support: Operates with one or two receivers per controller for expanded coverage. The EC3000-103 delivers the reliability and precision required for large-area fire detection in commercial and industrial environments.
