Infrared Photoelectric Beam

The Rednet Series of photobeams is a range of active infrared detectors designed to combine high levels of intruder detection with a low potential for false activation.
The system utilises the infrared transmission to synchronise transmitters and receivers and removes the need for hardwire synchronisation cables between towers.

RN4 systems feature four high power transmitters and four receivers. Uniquely, each transmitter operates to all receivers and all receivers are operated by all transmitters. This combination creates a sixteen beam path ‘net’ which is difficult to compromise.

SYSTEM DESIGN

The Rednet system is simple to design and install as it is modular and has just five main components.
To design a system, simply decide where the towers are to be positioned and measure the distance between these points. Choose the wall (RNW 175) or free-standing (RNT 175) towers and select the correct beam set for the distances between them. Towers come complete with all fixings and the electronics include heaters, thermostats, fixings and alignment aids.

BEAM HEAD

The Rednet beam head contains a folded optical array to combine a long focal length with small head size.
This creates narrow transmission and receiving angles to maximise performance.
The heads also contain their own heater to ensure that the maximum amount of energy is directed to the section of the tower the beams operate in.

BEAM SETS INCLUDE

  • Heaters
  • Thermostats
  • Four Transmitters pre-wired to transmitter controller
  • Four Receivers pre-wired to receiver controller
  • RN Tester
  • Optical alignment viewer
  • Blanking plates
  • Tamper Switch and Fixing Kit
