FSB-200(A) and FSB-200S(A)

Single-Ended, Reflector-Type
Addressable Beam Smoke Detector

Intelligent/Addressable Devices

DN-6985:C • H-212

GENERAL

The Notifier FSB-200 and FSB-200S are intelligent,

addressable reflected beam smoke detectors for protecting

open areas with high and sloping ceilings, and wide-open

areas, where spot-type smoke detectors are difficult to install

and maintain. Ideal applications are atriums, cathedral

ceilings, aircraft hangars, warehouses, sporting arenas,

concert halls, and enclosed parking facilities. They are

compatible with the NFS-3030, NFS2-3030, NFS-640, NFS2-

640, and NFS-320 in FlashScan® or CLIP mode, as well as

legacy addressable panels. Installation 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 FSB-200 and FSB-200S are usable in open area

applications where temperature extremes exceed the design

limits of other types of smoke detection.
The FSB-200 and FSB-200S 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® settings. When either Acclimate® setting is

selected, the detector’s advanced software algorithms

automatically adjust to the optimum sensitivity for the specific

environment.
The FSB-200S has an integral sensitivity test feature of a filter

attached to a servomotor inside the detector optics. Activation

of the RTS151 or RTS151KEY remote test stations 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. The servomotor must be powered by +24 VDC, not

SLC power.

FEATURES

• Listed to UL 268, ULC CAN/ULC S529.
• Transmitter/receiver built into same unit.
• Six user-selectable sensitivity levels.
• 16' to 328' (use BEAMLRK beyond 230') protection range.
• Removable plug-in terminal blocks.
• Digital display — no special tools required.
• Built-in automatic gain control compensates for signal dete-

rioration from dust buildup.

• Optional remote test station.
• Optional long-range kit (BEAMLRK) for applications in

excess of 230' (70 m).

• Optional multi-mount kit (BEAMMMK) providing ceiling or

wall mount capability with increased angular adjustment.

• Optional heater kits (BEAMHK and BEAMHKR) for

prevention of condensation (not intended to increase or

reduce the specified operating temperature).

• Paintable cover.
