The device comprises of a ground level Loop-Powered Controller and detector head with an operating range of 8m-50m with a receiver and an alignment motor in the same housing for quick and simple installation, an optional additional detector head can be connected to the controller. The detector automatically compensates for environmental effects on the beam signal by a combination of drift compensation and motorised realignment of the beam.?

Extension kit

In addition, the operating range of each detector head can be increased up to 100m by using the Extension Kit, which comprises of three additional reflective prisms. Each head has a loop address and the device has a built-in 20T negative bi-directional short circuit isolator. 

Head of Product Management Charles Smith said: “Our Intelligent Auto-aligning Beam Detector will utilise the higher addressing capability of CoreProtocol®, whist maintaining compatibility with XP95 and Discovery systems offering our customers a product for the present and the future. The new ground level controller will save our customers time and money upon installation.”
