AWACS BS12 Microprocessor managed dual-technology radio detector

Microprocessor managed dual-technology radio detector, 12 m x 70 degrees coverage. Operating temperature: 0 degrees to +40 degrees C — Flow rate 15 meters

The BS12 sensor is a dual-technology volumetric detector, consisting of a dual-element infrared sensor and a planar microwave with pulsed emission. The two sensors are controlled by a microprocessor that optimizes their performance. The operating modes are adjustable via a dip-switch, while the sensitivity adjustment is linear and is carried out with two trimmers: one for the infrared section and the other for the microwave section. The infrared section is also equipped with automatic temperature compensation that allows the detection sensitivity to be adapted to different environmental conditions. The high-brightness LED that the sensor is equipped with can perform different functions: “masked” alarm memory with the display of the alarm when the system was deactivated, IR section test, MW section test, IR+MW test. When the system is deactivated, the microwave is turned off, so as not to irradiation the protected area unnecessarily. The BS12 has protection against possible sabotage with spray paints on the lens of the infrared section, this protection consists of generating an alarm cycle when a certain number of detections take place by the microwave without any detection of the infrared section. The device can operate in 'AND' or 'OR' mode. In “AND” mode, the alarm condition occurs when both sensors detect an intrusion while in “OR” mode the alarm occurs with the detection of even one of the two sensors. The BS12 is particularly suitable for protecting civil environments, its maximum detection capacity reaches up to
