The OPAL is an outdoor dual technology motion detector, which is
perfectly suited for application both on the outside of the protected building
as well as indoors, where difficult or specific environmental conditions
prevail (in halls, under umbrella roofs, etc.). The OPAL detector incorporates
PIR and MW technologies, as well as antimasking function based on the microwave
technology. The dual technology combined with the algorithm of detector
auto-tuning to the environmental conditions ensures high immunity to false
alarms and, consequently, stable operation in harsh weather conditions, such as
rain, snow, sunshine and strong gusts of air. The device offers correct
operation in a wide temperature range from -40°C to +55°C, the ambient
temperature changes being automatically compensated.
The OPAL detector has a detection angle as wide as 100 degrees
and a reach of more than 15 meters. Also, as the look down zone is
protected, any intruder's attempt to approach the device to damage it or pull
it off will be detected. In addition, the detector software has been designed
so as to avoid false alarms caused by the movement of small pets.
Also the device enclosure is unique, as it is made using two-component
injection molding technology. The result of it is a splash-proof IP54
rated design, which protects the OPAL electronics against harmful atmospheric
phenomena. The detector enclosure is also characterized by high mechanical
strength and resistance to UV radiation. For additional protection of the
device against atmospheric precipitation and fouling, you can install the HOOD C (white)
or HOOD C GY (gray)
protective cover on the detector enclosure.
The OPAL detector is designed for mounting directly on a flat
surface. If the detector is to be turned vertically or tilted horizontally, you
can use special angle-type or ball-joint type brackets from the BRACKET C set
(white) or BRACKET
C GY set (gray), and also from the BRACKET E set.
To increase the detector's distance from the wall, even by over
a dozen centimeters, it is necessary to use the BRACKET E modular set.
The OPAL detectors are available in two color versions: white (OPAL) and gray (OPAL GY).
