Edwards EC3000-103 Beam Detector

The Edwards EC3000-103 is an end-to-end infrared optical beam smoke detector that comprises an infrared transmitter, receiver, and controller. The transmitter and receiver ar e installed near the ceiling of the protected area up to 393 feet apart. Wh ile the controller i s mounted at ground level where it remains accessible for maintenance and setup functions. Each controller will handle up to two transmitter/receiver pairs, each with separate fire and fault relays.

The Edwards EC3000-103 i s typically used wh en it i s impractical, or inappropriate. Not cost-effective to use point-type detectors. It enables coverage of a large protected area at minimal cost. It i s ideally suited for situations that might include high ceilings and dusty. And dirty environments, or environments that ar e prone to temperature extremes.

The EC3000 features integrated laser alignment, simplifying installation, and configurable detector sensitivity and drift compensation, reducing nuisance alarms. These features and capabilities make the EC3000 a practical and effective wide-area detection solution.
