WINNERS<br />
TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION OF THE YEAR<br />
Winner – RISCO BWare Detector<br />
WINNER<br />
Gilad Glaser, MD UK &<br />
Ireland, collects the award<br />
from co-host Ray Parlour<br />
Once again, RISCO has won a PSI<br />
Premier Award – this makes it five<br />
years in a row, for which we are<br />
absolutely delighted. The winning<br />
entry is for the RISCO BWare<br />
detector range<br />
The awards are special as they are voted by<br />
the installers of security systems and this is<br />
the third year in succession we have been<br />
recognised for ‘technological innovation’. As<br />
RISCO works hard to be ‘ahead of the game’ in the<br />
provision of cutting edge solutions, we were truly<br />
honoured to receive the award on that balmy<br />
summer evening at Luton Hoo. This accolade<br />
simply would not have happened without our<br />
industry colleagues that voted for us; we take this<br />
opportunity to say, ‘THANK YOU’!<br />
In 2018, RISCO Group celebrates its 40th<br />
anniversary and the PSI Awards for the BWare<br />
range is quite apt as the initial success of the<br />
business was founded on the quality of our<br />
detectors. This is a heritage that has underpinned<br />
our growth as a business over the decades.<br />
The BWare series offers a comprehensive<br />
array of wired, wireless and smart Bus detectors<br />
utilising RISCO’s industry-leading detection<br />
technologies, such as Anti-Cloak and K-band<br />
microwave for improved catch performance and<br />
with an active IR anti mask.<br />
Anti-Cloak Technology (ACT)<br />
ACT radically increases catch performance in<br />
situations for which the PIR signal becomes too<br />
weak to detect an intruder such as when intruders<br />
attempt to ‘cloak’ themselves or in a heatwave<br />
when the room temperature approaches 37ºC.<br />
K-Band Microwave<br />
This dramatically reduces false alarms from the<br />
microwave channel with reduced wall penetration<br />
(“bleeding”) so that people walking in a corridor<br />
outside the protected room do not cause false<br />
alarms.<br />
Convex Lens for enhanced performance<br />
BWare’s convex lens is superior as its larger<br />
size and convex shape allow more infrared<br />
radiation to enter the detector. This efficiency<br />
results in higher signal to noise ratio and<br />
consequently an unprecedented levels of catch<br />
performance and false alarm immunity.<br />
RISCO Bus for faster, less costly installations<br />
The BWare smart Bus models can be remotely<br />
diagnosed and serviced when connected to a<br />
RISCO hybrid security system, saving valuable<br />
time and money.<br />
Great aesthetics<br />
BWare is not only superior in terms of<br />
algorithms, optics and electronics design, but it<br />
also looks better. These days, when interior<br />
designers and home owners are very particular<br />
about the looks of any element in the home or<br />
office space, RISCO has invested in the design of<br />
a contemporary and sleek shape.<br />
In summary, the BWare smart detector<br />
family provides installers with the flexibility to<br />
utilise professional detectors in any installation -<br />
wired, wireless or hybrid, while maintaining a<br />
uniform look across the site. This has now been<br />
proven to have delivered real value to UK<br />
installers.<br />
“This accolade simply<br />
would not have<br />
happened without our<br />
industry colleagues<br />
that voted for us; we<br />
take this opportunity<br />
to say, ‘THANK YOU’!”<br />
