Product Overview
Linear Beam Detectors (Model PBA-1191) from
Siemens Industry
─ Fire Safety provide reliable
monitoring over long distances that range from 17 to
280 feet (5M
− 100M for Canada.) Model PBA-1191
works in conjunction with various types of reflectors,
according to each reflector’s installation
requirements.
Application
Model PBA-1191 was developed to cover a wide
range of applications. Hence, Model PBA-1191 can
be used to supplement or replace point-type smoke
detectors, when required. Some examples of the
aforementioned applications include:
large or high ceiling rooms (atriums and warehouses)
rooms with complex ceiling structures
(beam construction)
structures subject to frequent tremors
buildings whose walls flex as a result of
temperature change or wind conditions
aircraft hangars
churches
computer rooms
museums
malls
corridors
historical buildings
Model PBA-1191 should not be used in applications
where the beam is interrupted on a repeatable basis.
Operation
Model PBA-1191 consists of a transmitter (IRLED) that
emits an invisible infrared (IR) pulse through the
transmitter lens. The IR pulse traverses the protected
area to reach the reflector located opposite the
detector and is then reflected back to the detector.
