Extra Info
Advanced Dual-Tech Detection
The detector integrates both Passive Infrared (PIR) sensing and microwave detection technologies, creating a two-layer verification system that significantly reduces false alarms. Movement must be detected by both technologies simultaneously to trigger an alarm, filtering out common sources of interference such as moving curtains, HVAC systems, or sudden temperature changes. This makes it especially reliable for high-security environments or locations prone to environmental disturbances.
Enhanced Stability
Equipped with sealed optics, the sensor prevents dust, insects, and light interference from affecting performance. Its digital signal processing (DSP) ensures precise interpretation of detection signals, reducing false positives while maintaining a high detection rate. The digital temperature compensation automatically adjusts sensitivity according to environmental changes, guaranteeing consistent operation across a wide range of conditions, from hot summer days to cooler winter nights.
Easy Installation
Designed with installers in mind, the detector comes with onboard End-of-Line (EoL) resistors, eliminating the need for manual resistor wiring during setup and ensuring faster, cleaner installations. Its wide voltage range support allows compatibility with a variety of control panels and power supply systems, increasing flexibility in deployment. Adjustable mounting options and clear wiring terminals further simplify integration into both new and existing alarm systems.
Reliable Coverage
The combination of dual-tech detection, stable processing, and robust construction makes the unit ideal for areas where single-technology detectors might struggle, such as warehouses, offices with fluctuating airflow, or residential spaces with pets. This ensures dependable intrusion detection without unnecessary nuisance alarms.
