OPTEX has launched two new indoor sensors to complement the entry level Saver Grade 2 PIR detector that launched in September 2012. The makers say it’s aimed at installers with smaller budgets.
The RXC-ST and DT are the next sensors of the RX-40 family. The RXC-ST will offer installers the combined technology from three OPTEX devices, the RX-40QZ, RX40PT and the CX502.
For the more challenging sites and for confirmed alarm applications, OPTEX is releasing the RXC-DT combined PIR and Microwave (MW) detector. The RXC-DT adds microwave technology to the PIR device to complete a family of three detection devices suitable it is claimed for the residential, commercial and industrial markets. The Saver, RX-C ST and RXC-DT models use similar housings allowing PCBs to be interchanged and providing a compact uniform appearance, saving installers time and money if a replacement device is ever needed.
Takuya Okamoto, Managing Director for OPTEX Europe says: “We now have the complete low cost, high performance range to suit every location. What’s more they all feature the high capture rates of all OPTEX products with low false alarms.”
