Twin beam photoelectric detectors, designed for short-range outdoor or long-range indoor applications.

Using twin beams of pulsed infrared energy, reliable operation is possible in the worst conditions Ð up to 99% of the emitted radiation can be blocked by rain, fog or falling snow and the beams will still operate.

By utilising an automatic gain control circuit, gradual changes in signal strength caused by weather conditions are continually monitored and the trigger level adjusted accordingly to compensate. In addition, the unique anti-frost design allows for trouble-free operation when the cover is completely frosted over.

FEATURES

• Adjustable beam interruption time - long interruption time catches an intruder but allows a small animal to pass through.
• Twin beams require simultaneous interruption to create activation.
• 99.5% beam blocking stability
• Easy installation and alignment using viewfinder for rough alignment and voltage meter jacks for fine-tuning.
• Sealed optics to prevent ingress of insects and dust.
• Five year warranty

The new SEQUAD is unique in that two PIR Detectors are contained inside one housing, providing reliable sequential confirmation without the need to install two separate units. This saves time and money and, because SEQUAD detectors use proven PIR technology, false alarms are kept to a minimum.

SEQUAD sensors are designed to be mounted in the corner of a room, with one detector providing twin-zone coverage along each of the two walls and the other covering the central area of the room. When a door or window is opened, an alarm is generated by one of the side detection patterns. If an intruder then enters the room a second alarm is activated by the central detection pattern, providing a sequentially confirmed activation.

KEY BENEFITS

• Uses proven PIR technology for proven reliability
• Sequential Confirmation is one of the most popular and reliable methods of providing confirmed activations
• The two detection areas of the SEQUAD do not overlap - as required by UK ACPO policy
• A non-confirmed alarm system can be upgraded to be sequentially confirmed using existing cabling
• Each SEQUAD only requires one cable run
