INSTALLING RECESSED GLASSBREAK SENSORS<br />
WHEN APPEARANCE IS IMPORTANT<br />
Some customers want their security system to be as inconspicuous as possible.<br />
This is especially true in most residential installations, office entry foyers,<br />
executive offices, and upscale retail stores.<br />
Sentrol’s Recessed ShatterPro II and the Sentrol ShatterSwitch are the least<br />
obtrusive acoustic glass break sensors available.<br />
The Recessed ShatterPro II acoustic sensor recess mounts in a 1 in. (2.54 cm) hole.<br />
See installation instructions on previous page for pre-wired installations.<br />
When installing the Recessed ShatterPro II in existing residences and commercial<br />
facilities, drill a 1 in. hole through the drywall or ceiling tile, in the desired<br />
location. Insert the 1 in. sleeve into the hole, and the sensor into the sleeve. Use<br />
the trim ring, if necessary, to cover any irregularities in the drywall hole. (A hole<br />
saw makes the neatest hole, but a spade bit with cutting tips will usually work also.<br />
A twist drill should be avoided because it tends to tear the sheet rock covering.)<br />
One sensor can protect an entire room. Sensor range is 25 ft. (7.62 m) to the<br />
bottom of the glass in a 360˚ pattern, so the sensor can be ceiling mounted,<br />
mounted on the opposite wall, or on an adjoining wall. When installed, the<br />
Recessed ShatterPro II is little larger than a quarter, and is therefore rarely noticed.<br />
The Sentrol ShatterSwitch is a shorter range sensor which protects up to 10 ft.<br />
(3.05 m) of glass. For a hidden appearance, mount the ShatterSwitch on the<br />
window frame behind curtains or blinds.<br />
For protecting a large glass area, use a 5820A Recessed ShatterPro II. For smaller<br />
areas of glass, a ShatterSwitch 5725T can be used. A ShatterSwitch 5728T with<br />
built in reed switch will also detect the opening of the door or window. An optional<br />
90˚ mounting bracket, part number 5702, may be helpful when mounting the<br />
ShatterSwitch on a narrow window frame.<br />
