DSC AMB-600 Addressable Pet-Immune Passive Infrared Detector

The addressable dual-element, pet-immune PIR motion detector (AMB-600) is equipped with a large, multi-beam lens design that reliably identifies humans while remaining immune to pets weighing up 85 lbs (38 kg).

To ensure trouble-free operation for many years, special attention is given to false alarm immunity against RF, static and electrical transients. The detector uses a two-wire connection to the control panel that helps to reduce installation time and cost. The low current draw of the detector helps maximize the number of devices that can be attached to an addressable loop.

When choosing a location for the detector, be sure to consider the following: Do not aim the detector at reflective surfaces; Avoid locations that are subject to direct high air flow; Do not locate the detector in the path of direct or reflected sunlight; Do not place next to large obstructions that may limit the coverage area

Patented Multi-Level Signal Processing (MLSP) provides for more accurate detection of human IR energy over a broad range of temperatures. Its able to maximize catch performance while providing protection against false alarm sources such as radio interference, air vents and insects.
