Optex has launched FlipX Professional, a new range of Grade 2 indoor sensors, which, in a single sensor, can provide detection for both large spaces, and narrow spaces, listed as making it the ideal solution for commercial and professional sites.
The latest addition to the FlipX series, the new FlipX Professional protects narrow corridors or long areas, such as supermarket aisles up to 24m, or wide, open areas like classrooms, retail stores and open plan offices up to 15m at 85°. By simply ‘flipping’ the lens through 180°, the sensors can be utilised to provide both narrow and wide detection in the same unit, delivering flexibility for installers and end-users.
To detect intruders accurately, the bespoke pyro-electric sensors have a human-catch element, which improves the device’s detection performance because the sensor adapts to the human shape. Also, the spherical lens (a common feature of all models in the FlipX Series) provides consistency across the whole detection field, eliminating weak points for potential intruders to exploit.
FlipX Professional sensors have double conductive shielding to prevent nuisance alarms caused by strong lighting and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI).
