Infrared Dome Sensor (ICS-55

)

 

The ceiling sensor is the 

preferred infrared sensor for optimum performance. It comes 
standard with Maxim II, Spectrum II, VoiceLink II and 
VoiceLink IV packages. This is the unit that needs to be 
installed on the ceiling. It comes with a mounting/support 
bracket and 50 feet of plenum rated cable with RCA connector 
on each end. The ideal location for the dome sensor would be 
in the center of the ceiling. This will provide a clear signal path 
for the IR transmission from the transmitter to the dome 
sensor without obstruction. In addition, you will have 360° 
coverage and will minimize the transmission distance for more 
reliable performance. It 
collects the infrared 
transmission signal via 6 
large detecting diodes. The 
sensor is connected to the 
mixer/amplifier via a plenum 
rated cable terminated with 
RCA connectors. The 
mixer/amplifier supplies the 
power to the sensor.

  

 

Drop-in Battery Chargers 

 

The battery chargers were specifically designed to recharge 
NiMH batteries at an optimum rate 
to maximize their use. The 
chargers feature a recycle function, 
which is used to restore the battery 
charge capacity and extend their 
service life.    

 

 
BRC-50

 charger recharges the 

Crescent (IRT-30) and Body-Pack 
transmitter (IRB-30). You merely 
place the Crescent or body-pack in 
their respective slot. Connection 
will be made and charging will 
commence. Charger will 
automatically control the rate and 
maintain the charge.
