RADION glassbreak is a wireless sensor that detects breaking glass. It is equipped with a tamper switch and factory preset glass break sensitivity settings providing flexible configuration to maximize false alarm immunity and catch performance in any environment.
Dual Acoustic Technology
When an object hits a pane of glass, the glass absorbs
the blow and emits a low frequency sound pressure wave, called the flex wave. When the force of the blow is too great, glass shatters and emits a high frequency audio signal. A bell ringing, or a vase breaking produces a similar audio signal, but does not produce a flex wave. The glassbreak detects the flex wave first, and the audio signal second, reducing false alarms from items that only emit high frequency audio signals. The glassbreak detects breaking plate, tempered, wired, and laminated glass up to 6.4 mm (0.25 in) thick through blinds and lightweight, unlined drapes. The omni-directional microphone contained within the glassbreak can detect an audio signal in a 360 degree radius, allowing for supurb, acoustic detection and monitoring.
Glass Break Sensitivity
Factory-set sensitivity levels allow the detector to suit any environment.
Tamper Switches
The glassbreak has a wall and cover tamper switch that transmits a tamper signal when someone removes the device from its base, or pulls it away from the wall.
Self-locking Enclosure
The sliding self-locking enclosure has an integrated bubble level to make installation easier.
