Single-Ended, Reflected-Type, Addressable
Beam Smoke Detector with SmartScan™
The Gamewell
BD-SS
and
BDT-SS
are intelligent, addressable pro-
jected beam smoke detectors with
SmartScan™ protocol. They are
uniquely suited for protecting open
areas with high and sloping ceilings,
and wide-open areas, where spot-
BD-SS with reflective plate (top);
type smoke detectors are difficult to
and with BEAMMMK
install and maintain. Ideal applica-
tions are atriums, cathedral ceil-
ings, aircraft hangers, warehouses,
sporting arenas, concert halls, and
enclosed parking facilities. Installa-
tion of the single-ended reflective
design is much quicker than a dual-
ended projected beam detector.
Alignment is easily accomplished
with an optical sight and a two-digit
signal strength meter incorporated
into the beam detector. Listed for operation from –22°F to 131°F, the BD-SS
and BDT-SS are usable in open area applications where temperature
extremes exceed the design limits of other types of smoke detection.
The
BD-SS
and
BDT-SS
are a transmitter/receiver unit and a reflector.
When smoke enters the area between the unit and the reflector it causes a
reduction in the signal strength. When the smoke level (signal strength)
reaches the predetermined threshold, an alarm is activated. The detectors
have four standard sensitivity selections as well as two Acclimate™ set-
tings. When either Acclimate™ setting is selected, the detector’s advanced
software algorithms automatically adjust to the optimum sensitivity for the
specific environment. The protection range is 16 to 328 feet and there are
built-in isolators for Style 7 operation.
The
BDT-SS
has an integral sensitivity test feature of a filter attached to a
servomotor inside the detector optics. Activation of the RTS451 remote test
station moves the filter into the pathway of the light beam, testing the
detector’s sensitivity. This sensitivity test feature allows the user to quickly
and easily meet the annual maintenance and test requirements of NFPA
72, without physical access to the detector.
Listings
Listings and approvals below apply to the
basic BD-SS and BDT-SS beam smoke
detectors. In some cases, certain modules
may not be listed by certain approval
agencies, or listing may be in process.
Consult factory for latest listing status.
• UL Listed: file S1195.
• FM approved.
• MEA approved: file 269-04-E.
• CSFM approved: file 7260-1288:171.
Sensitivity Selection
The detector has six sensitivity selections. Each of these selections is only
acceptable over a specific distance separation between the detector and the
reflector per UL 268. The chart below determines which selections are
acceptable for your installed distance. The sensitivity of the detector can be
set only when the housing is removed and the detector is not in the fine
adjustment step of the alignment mode, indicated by the illumination of the
dual digital display. To set the sensitivity, depress the sensitivity button
one time. See

Indicators
• Alarm — local red LED and remote alarm.
• Trouble — local yellow LED and remote
trouble.
In addition to the four standard sensitivity selections, the detector has two
Acclimate™ settings. When either Acclimate™ setting is chosen, the detec-
tor will automatically adjust its sensitivity using advanced software algo-
rithms to select the optimum sensitivity for the environment. The sensitiv-
ity will be continuously adjusted within the ranges specified in the chart
above.
Total obscuration
can be converted to percent per foot, assuming uniform
smoke density for the entire length of the beam. The chart below converts
total obscuration percent per foot for all acceptable sensitivity settings.
Reflector Mounting Guidelines
6985mt1.wmf
• Normal — local flashing green LED.
Test/reset features
• Integral sensitivity test filter (BDT-SS
only, requires external power supply).
• Sensitivity filter (incremental scale on
reflector).
• Local alarm test switch.
• Local alarm reset switch.
• Remote test and reset switch (compatible
with RTS451 and RTS451KEY test
stations).
Smoke detector spacing
On smooth ceilings, 30 – 60 feet (9.1 to
18.3 m) between projected beams and
not more than one-half that spacing
between a projected beam and a sidewall.
Other spacing may be used depending on
ceiling height, airflow characteristics, and
response requirements. See NFPA 72.
