Dual-technology Detectors

TOWER-12AM

High-security, Dual-technology Mirror Detector with Anti-masking

TOWER^®-12AM is an industrial grade 3 dual-technology intrusion detector with anti-masking. Featuring extremely high coverage of 25mx 30m (82ft x 100ft) / 90^o, it is designed for large sites with medium to high security requirements and for harsh security environments with a high likelihood of false alarms. Warehouses and other large facilities, where temperature swings are common due to the absence of air conditioning and where rodents are commonly found, are typically exposed to higher than usual rates of false alarm-causing electrical and environmental interference, making them ideal sites for TOWER-12AM detectors.

Leveraging several patented, breakthrough technologies, including Visonic's innovative Obsidian Black Mirror^™ and V-Slot^® window technologies, the TOWER-12AM detector provides market-leading detection sensitivity, and unprecedented anti -vandalism and anti-masking capabilities.  The combination of those two unique technologies with dual PIR/MW technology ensures maximum immunity to false alarms even in harsh security environments where the risk of false alarms is higher than in most sites.

The TOWER-12AM is designed and constructed completely differently to other motion detectors, and is relatively small in size, yet it provides exceptional performance that outstrips industry norms. It combines an extremely large coverage area, unparalleled catch performance, easy installation, and assured, long-lasting reliability.  

With its breakthrough technologies, high-performing anti-false alarm capabilities and innovative design, the TOWER-12AM offers the most advanced dual technology mirror detector available.

TOWER-12AM Features:

• Ideal for protecting large warehouses and facilities with higher rates of false alarms
• Superior 25m x 30m (82ft x 100ft) / 90^o coverage with "wall" creep zone
• Easy installation with extended mounting height of 1.5 to 4m without a bracket
• Selectable coverage range (10, 17, 25m) for optimized performance
• Vandal-resistant design, enabled by patented V-Slot technology delivers unprecedented resistance to environmental interference and vandalism
• Patented market-leading elliptical optics provide longer range, along with excellent detection sensitivity and false alarm immunity
• Obsidian Black Mirror provide extremely high immunity to white light
• Adaptive active IR provide complete anti-masking protection -patented
• Optional snap-fit pet mask provides pet immunity up to 18kg(40lb)
• Built-in EOL resistors and plug-in terminals for pre-wiring
• Complies with the strictest security standard: Grade 3 EN 50131 (Europe) and CFR 47 Part 15 (USA)

Duet AM

Dual-technology Detector with Anti-masking

Duet AM is a smart high-security dual-technology detector that combines digital PIR and microwave technologies with anti-masking to optimize intrusion detection for industrial environments.  It is designed to expose efforts to intentionally or unintentionally defeat the detector.

Duet AM continuously monitors its surroundings and issues alerts whenever its field of view is blocked. Self-testing is periodically performed by unique patented microwave and passive infrared "Motion Simulators". If the detector does not respond appropriately to the effects produced by these motion simulators, malfunction alerts are issued.

Duet AM also implements a new generation of patented technologies including advanced microwave DRO front-end utilizing Digital Signal Processing (DSP), "True Motion Recognition"^™ (TMR) using Fuzzy Logic algorithm and state-of-the-art 3D cylindrical optics. The result is an outstanding high-security supervised detector, with ultimate long-term reliability and extremely high false alarm immunity. All this is provided in a durable and easily installed device designed for harsh environments in commercial or light industrial applications.

The result is the industry's best detection accuracy, false alarm immunity and ultimate long-term reliability – in an elegant, durable and easily installed professional device.

Duet AM Features:

• Advanced anti-masking and self-test "Motion Simulation" to detect malfunction and attempts to defeat the detector (patented)
• Dual passive infrared and microwave digital technologies for unsurpassed false alarm immunity and reliability
• Optimized signal processing of both MW and PIR channels for superior detection without false alarms
• Ultimate false alarm immunity based on patented TMR algorithm
• Industry's best catch performance based on proprietary patented Target Specific Imaging^™ and 3D cylindrical optics
• High-sensitivity coverage up to 20m x 20m / 67ft x 67ft with wall creep zone
• Unique tamper protection mechanism
