Safety Technology Int'l Inc STI-9624 Smoke Beam Guard

Product Description

The SAFETY TECHNOLOGY INT'L INC STI-9624 is a 9 gauge steel protective guard designed to shield smoke beam detectors from accidental damage in commercial and industrial installations. Constructed from heavy-gauge steel, it provides a rugged physical barrier around the detector head without obstructing the beam path required for proper smoke detection operation. This type of guard is typically installed by fire alarm technicians or licensed electricians working on life-safety systems in facilities where detectors are exposed to mechanical impact from forklifts, equipment, or maintenance activity.

The STI-9624 is suited for use in commercial, industrial, and warehouse environments where projected beam smoke detectors are mounted in areas subject to physical contact or inadvertent impact. It is sold as an individual unit and is categorized as an accessory for duct and beam detector installations. Installers working in high-traffic areas such as loading docks, manufacturing floors, or storage facilities will find this guard appropriate for protecting beam detector components.
