The 1142-000 ceiling mount positions Kidde EC-50R and EC-100R reflective beam smoke detectors at the recommended 19 to 24 inches below the ceiling, per NFPA 72 spacing guidelines. Stem-and-backbox design drops the detector to the correct height in warehouses, atriums, industrial plants, and gymnasiums without custom fabrication.

Built for beam detector installs in high-ceiling spaces

Reflective beam detectors protect large open areas where spot detectors can't reach. The 1142-000 mounts the EC-50R or EC-100R at the correct distance below the ceiling and provides a stable platform for reliable beam alignment. Beige finish blends with standard commercial ceiling grids.

Key features

  • Purpose-built for EC-50R/EC-100R: positions the detector at the NFPA 72 recommended 19-24 in. below ceiling
  • Stable mounting platform: reduces detector movement that causes false trouble conditions from beam misalignment
  • Beige finish: blends with standard commercial ceiling grids and structures
  • Complete assembly: ceiling plate, stem, and mounting backbox included

Compatible detectors

Supports the Kidde EC-50R (15-160 ft range, single reflector) and EC-100R (160-330 ft range, four-reflector group). Both models operate on 24 Vdc from the fire alarm control panel and use a 4-wire connection. The mount positions the detector; reflectors mount separately on the opposite surface with clear line of sight.

FAQs

What detectors does this ceiling mount fit?
The 1142-000 is built for the Kidde EC-50R and EC-100R reflective beam smoke detectors. The mounting backbox accepts the detector's rear mounting plate.
How far below the ceiling should the detector be mounted?
NFPA 72 recommends 19 to 24 inches (483-610 mm) below the ceiling. Consult your Authority Having Jurisdiction for spacing requirements specific to your locality.
Does this mount work with the EC-100R four-reflector setup?
Yes. The mount positions the detector on the ceiling side. The four reflectors for the EC-100R mount separately on the opposite surface, directly in line of sight with the detector.
Can this mount be used on sloped or peaked ceilings?
Spacing may vary for high or sloped ceilings. Verify operation with smoke tests per NFPA 72. Detection time increases with peaked roofs if fire occurs at the fringes of the protected area.
