PROTECTING OUTDOOR SWIMMING POOLS<br />
APPLICATION<br />
INSTALLATION<br />
RECOMMENDED<br />
PRODUCTS<br />
A PIR can be used to sound a local alarm upon unauthorized entrance into outdoor<br />
swimming areas. A local alarm can notify a parent when young children enter a<br />
restricted pool area.<br />
The 6187CTX Outdoor PIR is excellent for this application. It can be equipped<br />
with a curtain lens and mounted on all four sides of a swimming pool to provide<br />
complete perimeter detection.<br />
NOTE: The PIRs in this application DO NOT take the place of a fence. All<br />
outdoor swimming pools should be surrounded by a fence for liability reasons.<br />
Mount one PIR at each corner of the pool area approximately 7 ft. (2.13m) high.<br />
Avoid direct sunlight on the plastic lens.<br />
Keep away from branches that may impede PIR’s coverage pattern.<br />
Make sure conduit openings and mounting holes are well sealed. If conduit is<br />
used, run the conduit out the side or bottom of the unit to keep condensation from<br />
the conduit from draining into the PIR’s housing.<br />
The cast metal housing of the 6187CTX is specifically designed for outdoor<br />
applications. It provides water resistance and reliable detection in temperatures<br />
from -40°C to +50°C (-40°F to +120°F).<br />
SPACE DETECTION<br />
The 6187CTX comes in a cast aluminum housing that<br />
is gasket sealed to resist corrosion and is rated to -40°C.<br />
