KX18DC

Description

The KX18DC is a dual element pyro-electric sensor with a long narrow coverage pattern that makes it ideal for protecting shop fronts and large windows. Using Bluewave technology, auto sensitivity, and digital temperature compensation, the KX18DC ensures protection by automatically adapting to environmental factors like infrared noise, light variations, and temperature changes.

Key Features
  • 18m Vertical curtain detection coverage
  • Digital Temperature Compensation
  • Tamper proof brackets included

Product Features

Coverage Pattern

The KX18DC has a long narrow coverage pattern that makes it ideal for protecting shop fronts and large windows.

Bluewave Technology

With Bluewave technology, auto sensitivity and digital temperature compensation the KX18DC will keep you protected, automatically adjusting the detector to match the environmental conditions such as infra-red noise, light and temperature.

Curtain Detection

18m Vertical curtain detection coverage. Ideal for protection of large windows areas.

Selectable EOL resistors

The detectors incorporates selectable alarm resistor values of 6K8, 5K6, 4K7 &1K & tamper values of 5K6, 4K7, 2K2 and 1K catering for most control panels on the market.

Auto sensitivity feature

Depending on the environment condition, the detector will automatically adjust the sensitivity.

Digital Temperature Compensation

When the product is used in a hot environment this technology digitally adjusts the detector’s sensitivity allowing it to maintain its range even when the background room temperature is almost equal to the external body temperature of 32ºC (internal body temperature = 37ºC).
