Introduction and warnings
INTRODUCTION
GARDEN and TOWER IR are the perimeter columns
with crossed beams and double lens.
The GARDEN version is camouflaged as a lamp post
that combines aesthetics with functionality
to a reliable security device. Both pre-cabled and
ready for installation they are composed of a
transmitting and a receiving unit. The transmitter
emits a coded sequence of infrared beams which
are detected by all the receivers. The columns are
supplied with optical synchronization because each
beam is recognized by means of differentiated
optical codes (optical synchronization).
GARDEN and TOWER IR are more suitable for
harsher environments and weather situations
(low temperatures, fog, humidity, wind gusts)
thanks to the built-in automatic temperature
control device, the disqualification system and
sturdy aluminum structure.
