AX-100 ALPHA/ AX-200 ALPHA Desc: Outdoor Short-Range Photoelectric

Intrusion Detector

NOTE: Words/statements within square brackets [ ] may be included when appropriate, or when selection is required.

The Intrusion Detector[s] shall operate on the Verified Intrusion principle using Infrared Photoelectric, and shall be Listed by Underwriter's Laboratories, Inc..

OUTPUT AND ENCLOSURE

[Each] [The] detector shall provide the detection, signal processing, alarm relay, and operating power circuitry in the same enclosure; and shall provide an alarm relay actuation upon the detection of an intruder moving into or through its protection pattern. The housing cover and chassis shall be highly durable and heat resistant, and shall be capable of mounting to a Wall or Pole without modification.

The total weight (both Transmitter and Receiver) shall be 36.7 oz. (1040g).

[Each] [The] detector shall feature a single piece electronic logic board whose circuitry is specifically designed for this detector alone, and which has sustained a substantial “Burn-in” test for several days.

[Each] [The] detector shall also feature rain, dust, and Insect Protection. The Rubber O-Ring and Rubber Grommets used in [each] [the] model shall prevent rain, dust, and tiny insects from adversely affecting performance (IP55).

LED OPERATION

The detector[s] shall incorporate a single, Red LED to indicate the operating conditions. Red LED illuminated shall indicate an alarm condition. Red LED not illuminated shall indicate a non-alarm condition.

The LED indicator shall feature a 3 Step Process for fast and accurate fine beam adjustment. On [each] [the] ALPHA version detector, the alignment condition shall be visually displayed on the front and in the viewfinder of the receiver. By simply aiming both units and watching the LED indicators, accurate and reliable alignment shall be achieved. The alignment status at the receiver shall be optically transferred to the transmitter and shall be indicated by the LEDs.

To align the transmitter, one shall simply monitor the LED level while adjusting. The LED shall be “ON” before alignment, “Flickering” when Beam energy from the transmitter is reaching the receiver, and “OFF” when the beam is ready for fine tuning. Fine tune adjustment shall always be done with a Volt Meter.

POWER REQUIREMENT

The detector[s] shall be capable of operating from a DC power source rated within the range of 10.5 to 25 volts DC. The current draw (transmitter + receiver) for models AX-100 PLUS and AX-200 PLUS shall be a maximum of 46 mA during normal operation. The current draw (transmitter + receiver) for models AX-100 ALPHA and AX-200 ALPHA shall be 40 mA during normal operation, and 46mA (maximum) during optical alignment.

Doc #: 3440-0322

ALARM OPERATION

A condition of alarm shall occur when the alarm conditions are met. The Beam Interruption Period shall be adjustable within the range of 50 ~ 500 msec. to increase stability while maintaining reliability at every installation site. A selectable 4 channel beam frequency with automatic synchronization shall be available for models AX-100 ALPHA and AX-200 ALPHA. The beam characteristics shall be pulsed infrared. The Alarm Period shall be 2.0 ± 1 seconds nominal.

The Alarm Output shall be capable of handling 28VDC, 0.2A max., Form C Relay. [Each] [The] detector shall signal the condition of alarm using a Form C Relay with terminal strip connections. The detector[s] shall also contain a tamper switch on the receiver only that shall open when the cover is removed.

SENSOR STABILITY

[Each] [The] detector shall feature protection against Lighting and High EMI Disturbances. An improved EMI Surge Absorber and High Surge Resistiveness Relay shall maintain stable operation even in the most lightning prone areas, and shall remain stable against over 14kV of lightning surge.

[Each] [The] ALPHA version detector shall also utilize selectable beam frequencies to eliminate cross talk of Beams and to provide accurate beam discrimination. The selectable 4 channel beam frequency with automatic synchronization shall be used to avoid cross talk problems that occur when using 2 photobeams for long distance or beam stacking applications.

[Each] [The] detector shall remain stable even in high temperature conditions. [Each] [The] detector shall be rated to operate within a temperature range of [minus 13° Fahrenheit to Plus 131° Fahrenheit] [minus 25° Celsius to Plus 55° Celsius].

[Each] [The] detector shall also tolerate a humidity rate of 95% max. No false

alarm shall occur within these operating conditions.

[Each] [The] detector shall contain an A.G.C. (Automatic Gain Control) Circuit to continually monitor for gradual changes in the signal’s strength

caused by changing weather conditions. It shall adjust the sensitivity accordingly to maintain the proper signal level for the current environmental conditions.

[Each] [The] detector shall provide protection against rain, dust, and insects by means of a sealed enclosure housing. The Rubber O-Ring and Rubber Grommets (IP55) used in the detector[s] shall prevent rain, dust, and tiny insects from adversely affecting performance.

[Each] [The] detector shall feature frost and dew protection. An anti-frost and convex visor design shall be incorporated to protect the detector[s] from the effect of frost or snow.

[Each] [The] detector shall utilize Twin Synchronized Pulsed Beams with size analysis technology to eliminate false alarms due to birds or flying objects. The “And Gate” dual beams shall require simultaneous interruption of both beams to trigger an activation.

No activation shall be generated when a bird or falling leaves break just one beam.

LENS AND DETECTION PATTERN

[Each] [The] detector shall contain a durable and high grade Aspherical lens that shall focus received infrared energy onto the sensor.

The sensor and module combined shall create more sharply defined and precise infrared beams compared to those created by ordinary lenses.

The precise area of the detection field shall be specific to each model. Model AX- 100 PLUS shall feature a detection field of 100ft (30m) Outdoor, and 200ft (60m) Indoor, with a Maximum Arrival Distance of 1000ft (300m). Model AX-200 PLUS shall feature a detection field of 200ft (60m) Outdoor, and 400ft (120m) Indoor, with a Maximum Arrival Distance of 2000ft (600m). Model AX-100 ALPHA shall feature a detection field of 100ft (30m) Outdoor, and 200ft (60m) Indoor, with a Maximum Arrival Distance of 1000ft (300m). Model AX-200 ALPHA shall feature a detection field of

Doc #: 3440-0322

200ft (60m) Outdoor, and 400ft (120m) Indoor, with a Maximum Arrival Distance of 2000ft (600m).

The mounting height of the detector[s] shall be within the range of 0.8 ~ 1.2m (2.7 ~ 4ft).

Fine optical beam alignment shall also be incorporated into the detector[s]. The rotating dial shall allow the installer to finely adjust the beam easily either horizontally (180°/ ± 90°) or vertically (10°/ ± 5°), with or without the use of a screw (finger adjustable).

MODEL

The Intrusion Detector shall be model AX-100 PLUS (Outdoor Short-Range Photoelectric Intrusion Detector) [or] [model AX-200 PLUS] [or] [model AX-100 ALPHA][or] [model AX-200 ALPHA], [with] [optional Back Cover BC-2] [or] [optional Heating Unit HU-2].
