Nittan Europe, a manufacturer of conventional and addressable fire detection products, has launched an enhanced version of its EV-Firebeam Xtra loop-powered beam detector: the EV-Firebeam Xtra SCI.

The latest product from smoke detector producer FFE is a smoke beam detector that self-aligns in less than a minute to protect large commercial and public spaces. The Fireray One promises to make ...

GJD design and manufacture a wide range of external perimeter protection products that identify genuine threats and create alerts when an intruder is at the boundary, rather than inside the premises.

A new beam detector which uses a visible laser to help correct alignment, has been unveiled by Fire Fighting Enterprises. The laser is aligned along the optical path of the infrared beam, to assist in ...

Laser beam alignment can be tricky. With our newly launched gRAY laser beam position detectors you can detect the position and measure the power of your laser beam at the same time. The laser beam ...

The beam is off, but high energy physics research is very much on at one of the world’s premier particle physics labs. The requirements of social distancing have prompted scientists at the U.S.

Hadron therapy shows potential to improve the effectiveness of cancer radiotherapy. By exploiting the characteristic depth-dose distributions of hadrons in tissues (the Bragg peak), the technique ...

This circuit is presented as an alternative to the IR beam break detector featured in the June 2009 issue (Silicon Chip). In order to make it relatively insensitive to ambient light, it uses a ...
