As a professional, you’ll have to consider properly, what would be the most effective place to
install the appliance. Here are some guidelines which can help you with your decision:
þ
Logically, you’ll place the appliance so that the fog expulsion points in the direction of the
supposed burglary entrance or in the area which contains the most valuable objects.
Should this entrance provide a potential air passage to outside (i.e. a garage door, a
glass frontage which is sensitive for break-in, etc.), You’ll have to prevent the ejection
nozzle being pointed in this direction to avoid the potential fog ejection to be
blown outside. In this case, you’ll have to point the nozzle towards a side wall to break
the ejection pressure. This way, the fog will “cloud out” and only a smale amount of fog
will be blown directly to the outside.
þ
Avoid the ejected fog forming a oneway trap. The ejected fog is supposed to form a
strong take-away reducing barrier. Burglars are not supposed to be caught. Further, if
there is a false alarm, the chances of trapping innocent persons is greater than catching
burglars in a real burglary!
þ
Determine the place in such a way that the ejection nozzle does not point in the direction
of fragile objects. The powerful fog expulsion could blow down these objects.
þ
There has to be a free passage area for the ejected fog, of at least 5 to 6 metres before it
bounces against a fog blocking obstacle, i.e. a frontwall. The space of about 6 metres in
front of the ejection nozzle will be the first to be filled out with fog, and this within 2
seconds.
þ
If there are already PIR-sensors installed in the
room to be guarded and you don’t want to take
any risks with false triggering because of fog
expulsion, you’ll have to replace these PIR’s
with combi-sensors (PIR/radar). If you have to
install a new installation, use combi-sensors for
volumetric detection in areas where
BANDIT
is installed. Radar never detects
floating clouds,
but most PIR’s do sporadically...
þ
Make sure that no burglar can come near the
unit without being detected first by a sensor.
This sensor has to start a fog expulsion,
independently of an eventual entrance delay.
