Description
The 1B Solar Powered Infrared Beam System is a high-performance security solution designed to detect movement over long distances—without the need for mains power. Equipped with both wireless transmission and a wired N/O or N/C output, this beam system is perfect for remote or off-grid locations.
Whether you're protecting farms, construction sites, outbuildings, or driveways, this compact sensor pair delivers exceptional detection reliability, zero-maintenance power, and flexible output options.
Wired Output Functionality
One beam (the “R” Beam) includes a wired output cable with Normally Open (N/O) and Normally Closed (N/C) options, enabling integration with:
- Battery-powered GSM Auto Diallers
- Sirens
- Alarm panels
- Custom trigger devices
Ideal for sites without mains power, where a battery-based alarm system is required.
900 Metre Wireless Transmission
Both beams include a built-in 433MHz wireless transmitter with an impressive 900-metre line-of-sight range to a compatible receiver. This allows:
- Flexible installation across wide areas
- Reuse or relocation to new zones or properties
- Use as part of a modular, wireless security system
Dual Beam Detection Technology
- Each sensor includes two aligned infrared detectors spaced 60mm apart
- Both beams must be broken simultaneously to trigger an alert
- Reduces false alarms from animals, leaves, insects, or debris
- Optional low-volume alignment beep helps during setup
Fully Solar-Powered for Low Maintenance
- Powered by rechargeable lithium AA batteries
- Batteries are automatically charged by built-in solar panels
- Optional rear charging port (9–12V DC) allows top-up charging if installed in shaded areas
