The detector uses a dual-unit design: a transmitter sends an infrared beam to a receiver mounted opposite, and smoke particles crossing the beam reduce signal strength, triggering an alarm when obscuration passes the threshold. Integral laser alignment guides installation, and the Auto Align function automatically compensates for minor beam drift caused by building movement or thermal expansion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for large open spaces where traditional point smoke detectors are impractical — warehouse ceilings, atriums, aircraft hangars, sports halls — the BD1 covers a linear path with a single device pair. The 24V DC power draw peaks at 35mA, compatible with most commercial fire alarm panels. The transmitter and receiver mount to opposite walls or structural supports with adjustable brackets, and the laser alignment tool allows fine-tuning during commissioning before the infrared beam is activated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white housing carries an IP55 rating, making the detector suitable for dusty environments and light water spray exposure typical of industrial or semi-outdoor spaces. The EN 54-12 approval certifies the detector for use in European fire detection and alarm systems, meeting the smoke sensitivity and environmental stability requirements of the standard. Physical dimensions of 295mm × 160mm × 210mm per unit require adequate wall or beam mounting clearance during installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Net Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Gross Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Gross Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Length (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e295\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Width (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e160\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Height (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e210\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Length (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e295\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Width (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e160\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Height (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e210\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/products_BD1_datasheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/manual_BD1UserGuide.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat range does the BD1 cover and can it be extended?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard BD1 covers up to 50m between transmitter and receiver.
