SECURITY SENSORS
Indoor and outdoor intruder sensors for volumetric protection of property.

We've been breaking boundaries in dual-zone technology since launching the MS-12FE, a first-of-its-kind 180-degree outdoor PIR designed to mitigate nuisance alarms from pets and small animals by combining horizontal and downward zones that require simultaneous activation for alarm.
Capable of protecting up to 226m2 from a mounting height of 1m, MS-12FE hit the ground running by providing highly reliable and versatile protection of property before an intruder reaches your door.
So robust it proved to be, the humble MS-12FE inspired many to try and capture its magic for themselves. The resulting arms race in this sector has seen the MS-12 series expand into a whole family of dual-zone sensors; with the battery operated and wireless-ready TX-114 series, the low-cost OMS-12FE, and most recently the anti-masking and dual-technology equipped MX-12 series all featuring this same detection principle.
The series that started it all, up to 12m / 40ft x 180° detection with adjustable optics.
Powered by an alkaline or lithium battery for rapid deployment in remote areas.
TECHNOLOGY FOCUS
Mention ‘Outdoor PIR’ and people immediately think of the security light that comes on multiple times a night courtesy of the local wildlife, be it domestic or feral, especially with the emboldened ‘urban foxes’.
So how can we still use the most versatile sensing technology but ignore the usual crowd of traditional visitors?
This is where the Dual-Zone detection system is indispensable, mounted at around 1m / 3.3ft the device throws out a horizontal field of detection and also a downward field of detection that can be adjusted up to 12m / 40ft.
Both of these fields need to be activated to cause an alarm condition, so while cats, foxes and badgers etc will be activating only the lower zone, the sensor will not report an alarm.
This is the catch-all category for our misfits and rebels, the round pegs in square holes that push the envelope of traditional motion detection. Each deserving of a category in their own right, but brought together under the collective of specialist PIR - a formidable supergroup of sensors if you will.
From the high-performance PIR-T series with precision triple-mirror optics, intelligent signal processing, and some straight-out-of science fiction optical area adjustment sorcery that involves bouncing LED lights off of mirror segments, to our 4-in-1 jack of all trades MS-100E with interchangeable lenses for the ultimate in detection versatility, we've a PIR to suit any application.
