STANDARD VERSION FX-40
Performance
|
- Patented Multi-Focus Optics
The highly accurate and reliable detection pattern will maintain its sensitivity throughout the entire detection area even in high temperature or low contrast environments. Multi-Focus Optics create an extremely high vertical zone density, two or three times the size of conventional PIRs. These taller zones capture the entire body mass and enable detection of even the smallest temperature contrast against the temperature of the background. In addition, the vertical detection density has been improved to take into account dead zones created by furniture or partitions.
- Look Down Zone
The Look Down Zone creates greatly improved vertical sensitivity.
- Sealed Optics
Prevents drafts and small insects from getting on to the pyroelectric element. This practically eliminates the chance of false alarm due to these causes since the pyro is sealed with the inside molding of the housing cover.
- False Alarm Protection
RFI Protection: No alarm at 20 V/m from 100MHz to 1GHz
Temperature Protection: No alarm during temperature changes from -4° to +122°F (-20° to +50°C)
- LED ON/OFF Switch
- Selectable Pulse Count: 2 or 4
- Tamper Switch (FX-40/40D)
- Selectable Alarm Memory (Polarity) (FX-40L): Positive or Negative
- Spherical Lens Design
Conventional flat lenses inevitably create sensitivity distortion problems when they are bent to fit a curved housing. OPTEX's spherically designed lens will obtain sharp detection because no bending is required.
Designed to collect IR energy from the detection area, and focus it directly onto the pyro.
Since a flat lens is "bent," sensitivity distortion occurs at both sides of the lens (the lens surface in not directing IR energy correctly), resulting in poor sensitivity for long distance detection applications.
- ECO Technology (Environmental Compensation from OPTEX)
The FX-40 series features "ECO technology." This technology is designed to increase the sensor's resistance to all kinds of environmental disturbances. Logic built into the chip allows the sensor to recognize, discriminate and adjust for temperature changes within the sensor's environment. This technology also makes the unit less susceptible to false alarms due to RFI disturbances.
- Special Custom-Made Pyro Electric Element
- Temperature Compensation Circuit
The Temperature Compensation Circuit will increase detection capability under high temperature conditions where the background temperature is similar to that of the human body. It maintains a high level of false alarm protection while providing accurate detection by automatically adjusting its sensitivity according to the environmental temperature.
Easy Installation
- No Vertical Adjustment
Vertical area adjustment and dead zones are eliminated by high density detection zones.
- Easy Wiring Knockout
Wiring knockouts can be opened with a simple push from a screwdriver. Making and adjusting wiring holes to the right width for the cables is much easier.
- Wiring Guide & Wide Wiring Space
- Easy-to-View LED
- Spare Terminal
Design Durability
- Hard & Durable Spherical Lens
OPTEX's Spherical Lens provides higher durability against shocks compared to ordinary PIRs using flat fresnel lenses or mirrors.
- PC Board Protection Wall
Damage caused by the tip of the screwdriver, etc. to the PC board can be easily prevented by the PC Board Protection Wall.
- Non-Distortion Chassis
- Attractive Design
SUPERIOR VERSION FX-40D
Greater Performance Double Conductive Shielding Commercial Market
- Patented Double Conductive Shielding of Pyro Electric Element
The Double Conductive Shielding lets infrared energy pass through, but blocks and grounds out the RFI and light sources since it features a special conductive filter that covers the element window. A conventional metal shielded pyro electric element has an open window for infrared energy to enter. This allows RFI and light to enter and does much less to protect against many types of interference.
- False Alarm Protection
- RFI Protection - No alarm against 10W transmitter with 3.3ft (1.0m) with a field strength of 30V/m within the range of 100MHz to 1GHz.
- Visible Light Protection - Provides a high protection level that exceeds H4 halogen (car headlight) within 8ft (2.4m) or 50,000lx of morning sunlight reflection within the detection area.
- Temperature Protection - No alarm in high, low and changing temperatures from -4° to +122°F (-20° to +50°C)
