Xtralis is launching three new IR (infra-red) detectors to complement its ADPRO range of external or passive IRs.
The range now includes the PRO 30 with a detection pattern of 30m x 20m, the PRO 40 with a detection pattern of 40m x 10m, and the PRO 50 with a detection pattern of 50m x 30m. All PRO detectors are suited to a range of protection applications, and are suitable according to the makers for conditional triggering of CCTV, PTZ and dome cameras, plus the triggering of video switchers and video transmission units for event-driven CCTV.
The ADPRO PRO Series are standalone passive infra-red detectors designed for outdoor protection that will detect human targets by sensing temperature differences between them and the background.
These detectors have new anti-tamper features as Jeff Kitching says: “All our infra-red detectors have a unique anti-tamper feature to give excellent system integrity. If the detector is displaced from its installed position, the detector will generate a tamper alarm that can be sensed, recorded and transmitted in accordance with the BS8418 security standard. The Xtralis ADPRO Detectors can be used as stand-alone units or in high security multi-detector environments, and specific equipment such as an alignment telescope, wireless installation tester and software analysis tools are available free of charge in order to optimise installation.”
Common to all models is both in-built AC and DC supply capability and intuitive scene learning capability to reduce the number of false alarms caused by moving vegetation, small animals and sudden environmental changes. All detectors are contained within a weather-proof housing and protected against dust and moisture to ensure reliable operation even in the harshest conditions. In addition, High Performance (H) and Directional (D) variants of the PRO Series Detectors are also available.
