Guide to Detection Systems

This week's blog we are going to look at the different types of detection systems that are available from Door/Window Contacts to Vibration Detectors. Keep your home or business safe and alarmed can be a major deterrent to intruders.

Door & Window Contacts

These contacts can be fitted to almost all types of doors or windows where unauthorized entry is a risk. When the intruder alarm is set, the device will signal to the control panel once the door or window has been opened.

Motion Sensors.

These sensors are installed to provide additional detection for the intruder alarm. These sensors can be one of three types: Standard PIR (Passive infrared) Sensors, which measure infrared light radiating from objects in its field of view. Dual tech sensors which measure both infrared light and microwaves. These sensors provide an excellent detection rate and high immunity to false alarms and reduced call out costs. Sequential sensors which feature two non-over- lapping detectors in one device.

Panic Alarms

Single push panic alarms can be wall or desk mounted. These alarms can be set to be silent or sound the intruder alarm system. In both circumstances, activating the panic alarm will activate the intruder alarm and trigger the consequential action.

Glassbreak Detectors.

Using microphone and Time-of-Arrival (TOA) processing, the detector listens only for the sound of breaking glass arriving from the protected area and ignores sounds arriving from elsewhere in the room. These detectors are usually mounted on the ceiling.

Vibration Detectors

These sensors detect movement and can be used on windows and doors, or on freestanding objects such as ATM's vending machines and filing cabinets where different types of detection have been activated.
