PROTECTING VACATION HOMES AND GARAGES<br />
APPLICATION<br />
INSTALLATION<br />
RECOMMENDED<br />
PRODUCTS<br />
Garages and vacation homes often contain valuable objects that can be protected<br />
with a PIR. Such spaces present a unique challenge because they are not<br />
temperature-regulated on a regular basis. In garages, there can also be a greater<br />
risk of damage from accidental impacts with balls, tools, lumber, etc. Garages and<br />
vacation homes can also contain rodents.<br />
The Sentrol line of space protection devices includes PIRs that operate in a very<br />
wide range of temperatures. The 6155CT Sharpshooter, for example, operates<br />
from -40°C to +50°C (-40°F to +120°F). It is ideal for use in extremely cold<br />
climates. The 6155XT Sharpshooter offers 1°C discrimination capabilities, making<br />
it ideal for very warm climates where the temperature difference between the<br />
background and the intruder may be very small. Quad element pyros improve a<br />
PIR’s ability to differentiate rodents from intruders.<br />
An optional wire cage can be fit over either the 6155CT or XT to prevent<br />
accidental breakage and vandalism.<br />
For best installation, use the Sharpshooter’s mirror sighting system (model 6060).<br />
The mirror gives you a true picture of potential false alarm sources and helps you<br />
achieve the best mounting location for maximum detection. The Sharpshooter s<br />
swivel bracket allows easy aiming and adjusting.<br />
Attach the back case to the swivel bracket. Adjust the mounting angle by<br />
loosening the screw on the ball joint shoe and positioning the case. When desired<br />
coverage is achieved, tighten the ball joint shoe screw. Snap on the front cover<br />
with the desired lens installed. Attach the protective wire cage.<br />
Position the sensor so that it will not be subject to early morning or late evening<br />
light entering through windows. Also, do not aim the sensor at mirrors that may<br />
direct such light onto the detector. The mirror sighting system will help you<br />
achieve the best coverage.<br />
Walk-test the unit to ensure correct operation.<br />
The 6155CT and XT Sharpshooters are the best PIRs for this application.<br />
SPACE DETECTION<br />
The 6155CT provides<br />
protection in areas where<br />
the temperatures are below<br />
freezing. The (6085) wire<br />
cage is a useful accessory<br />
in garages, warehouses or<br />
gymnasiums.<br />
