FFE Fireray Optical Beam Detection
Beam smoke detection for large, tall volumes — one device covering what a grid of point detectors otherwise would.
Brand overview
Optical Beam Detection by FFE
Fireray is FFE's optical beam smoke detection range. A beam is projected across the protected volume and smoke crossing that path reduces the light arriving at the receiver, which the detector reads as obscuration.
The range covers end-to-end and reflective arrangements for different spans, with versions suited to long distances and to structures that move. Intech surveys the beam path, installs, aligns and maintains the range.
- One device, wide coverage A beam supervises a volume that would need a grid of point detectors.
- Built for height Warehouses, atriums and production halls where ceilings defeat point detection.
- Mounted at reachable level Testing does not require roof access or closing the aisle beneath.
- Contamination compensated Gradual dust build-up is reported as a fault rather than read as smoke.
System
How a Beam System Is Put Together
01
Transmit
An infrared beam is projected across the protected volume.
02
Return
A receiver or reflector at the far end returns the signal.
03
Measure
Smoke crossing the path reduces the light arriving, which the detector measures.
04
Alarm
Sustained obscuration at the set threshold signals the fire alarm panel.
Applications
Where Fireray Is Specified
Beam detection earns its place wherever the ceiling is too high, or too awkward to reach, for conventional detection to be reliable.
Warehouses and logistics
Height and racking make ceiling detection slow to respond.
Industry detailProduction halls
Large open volumes with limited roof access.
Industry detailAtriums and public buildings
Tall spaces where smoke stratifies below the roof.
Industry detailLarge commercial interiors
Open-plan floors and lobbies with high ceilings.
Industry detailPower and process buildings
Turbine halls and switch houses with difficult access.
Industry detailHeritage buildings
Minimal fixings and discreet installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What project teams usually ask about FFE Fireray.
Still have a question?
Speak directly with one of our fire safety engineers.
Call +91 88795 33000What is an optical beam detector?
It projects an infrared beam across a space. Smoke crossing the path reduces the light reaching the receiver, and the detector responds to that obscuration.
How large an area does one beam cover?
That depends on the device and the building geometry. Coverage is established at design stage from span, mounting height and obstructions.
Will racking or cranes interfere?
They can, which is why the beam path is surveyed and designed around racking, lighting and crane movement rather than fitted afterwards.
Does dust cause false alarms?
Gradual contamination is tracked separately from a sudden change, so build-up reports as a fault. Cleaning is part of the maintenance schedule.
Can it be retrofitted?
Usually yes. Devices mount on walls or columns at accessible height, which is often easier than retrofitting a ceiling grid.
Does Intech align and maintain it?
Yes — beam path survey, installation, alignment, commissioning and AMC.
