Simplex 5000-031 Beam Smoke Detector

Simplex 5000-031 Beam Smoke Detector Head

The Detector Head model 5000-031 is a reflective auto-aligning infrared beam smoke detector, designed as an accessory for beam detection systems such as the Fireray 5000 or Simplex 4098-9019. It operates by transmitting an infrared beam towards a reflector prism and receiving the return signal, then analyzing it to detect smoke in large open spaces.

Key Features

• Auto-Align Technology: Uses laser-assisted installation and automatic beam alignment, reducing setup time.

• Auto-Optimise: Automatically adjusts for building movement, expansion, vibration, or minor shifts over time.

• Contamination Compensation: Self-calibrates to offset dust accumulation, helping to reduce false alarms.

• Wide Detection Range: Protects areas from 8–50 m with the included prism, extendable up to 100 m with the long-range prism kit (5000-004).

• Flexible Connectivity: Each 4098-9020 controller can manage up to 2 detector heads (5000-031).

• Cost-Effective Application: Reduces the need for multiple point detectors, wiring, and installation costs in large areas.
