Also want to say thanks to everyone at Acorn Fire & Security for a great day.

The training was extremely helpful and a good balance of practical to theory work in the course.

We look forward to sitting in on another training course in the near future.

Dear Emma and Dear Robyn,
 
The 3 Beam 6500E-26 sensors arrived this week.
 
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your help and work in this somewhat complicated matter.
 
I wish you a nice week and a good weekend.
 
Thank you very much again!

Richard Molnai

Good Morning Emma,

I must say you are the best.  Normally I do not receive such fast replies from overseas suppliers, and that too complete with courier charges.

Have a nice day.

I would just like to point out how helpful Lauren has been. We have an issue where our office is next to a railway crossing and currently the crossing is closed for roadworks. This is causing an issue with deliveries. Lauren called me to discuss and has arranged for our delivery to be redirected. Customer service is very important and clearly displayed by Acorn and the whole team. We have used Acorn several times since setting up our account and nothing but praise.
 
Efficient, speedy, helpful, detailed, professional  are just a few words to describe your team.
 
I will continue to place our orders from Acorn. 
 
Regards 
Andrew

Ziton FD310 End-to-End Beam Detector (5 to 120m)

Optical beam smoke detector consists of separate transmitter and receiver heads and a low level controller.

The FD310 End to End infrared Optical Beam Smoke Detector (OBSD) has been designed using the latest optical technology, incorporating modern industrial, electronic and software techniques. This detector offers cost effective protection of large, open area spaces with high ceilings. It is also very suited to applications where access to ceiling mounted smoke detectors presents practical difficulties.

The system comprises a modern looking Transmitter head, which emits a narrow beam of infra-red light to an associated Receiver head, with a compact Low Level Controller. Once smoke crosses through and thus obscures the IR beam path, the signal strength at the Receiver drops below a pre-set level which in turn results in an alarm condition. Both the detector heads, Transmitter and Receiver, have integrated alignment thumbwheels for ease of alignment. Using these thumbwheels provides a smooth and repeatable alignment process. The detector heads have up to 10 degrees of adjustment in both planes. For further adjustment, a bespoke Adjustment Bracket is available, which offers up to 180 degrees movement in both planes, as well as a full 360-degree rotation.

The FD310 has been designed so that it can be installed by one operator, with its laser assisted alignment method combined with easy to use alignment LED’s offering a visual feedback. Integrated laser alignment aid can be activated at the Controller or at the Receiver head.

The low level Controller incorporates a LCD display, which offers a full icon-based, easy-to-use interface unit. This Controller enables ease of commissioning, testing and maintenance of the beam detection system. During commissioning the detector sensitivity and fire thresholds can be selected, along with the user variable time to fire and time to fault settings.

Range 5 to 120m, integral laser alignment, controller can support 2 pairs of transmitter and receivers additional pairs are available FD310H.
