The Equinox provides

safeguards again false alarms experienced in hostile

environments where, for example, there are rapid

changes in air temperature e.g. kitchens, conservatories or

draughty garages.

The range consists of five detectors which operate by

The Equinox detector range is particularly suitable to environments which are more susceptible to false alarms activation's.

The Equinox range of combined technology detectors offers exceptional reliability and a lengthy feature list to comprehensively protect your property.

Features

l Compatible with all conventional alarm systems.

l Exceptionally high false alarm immunity.

l Designed and manufactured in the UK.

l Reliable detection in areas of rapid temperature variance due to the application of Passive Infrared and Microwave technology.

l Low profile casing.

l State of the art design and manufacturing.

l Available in five versions, Equinox E, AM (Anti Masking), 10, 15 and PI (Pet Immune).

l The LED's on the front cover of the detector indicate which technology has been activated, Green for PIR and Amber for Microwave.  When both technologies are triggered the central Red LED will also illuminate indicating and alarm condition.  (Only when both technologies have been triggered will an alarm activation take place).  In a true intruder situation this process will only take a split second.

l Pyronix have developed a system known as IFT which filters out interference caused  by external electrical sources.

l The sensitivity of the detector can be adjusted to suit the environment by using the Analogue or Digital Pulse Count features (depending on the model).

l Sealed Optics ensure against false alarms caused by

insects which may interfere with the sensor inside the detector.

l A robust 3mm thick case protects the components inside the Equinox.

l An Anti-masking feature (in the AM version only) ensures against sabotage attempts by detecting and blockage of either PIR or microwave sensors at short range.
