Optex Europe is the leading manufacturer of infra-red detectors
Optex Europe will showcase its range of security products at IFSEC 2011

Optex Europe, leading manufacturer of infra-red detectors, will be exhibiting an array of modern, functional security solutions designed for protecting residential properties at IFSEC 2011. The range of products on the stand will include BoundaryGard home protection, wireless perimeter detection, internal and external rapid deployment GPRS systems and ARC simulation for battery-powered devices.

The Optex BoundaryGard range provides flexibility and control using outdoor detectors, whilst providing the same level of performance usually limited to internal detection systems. BoundaryGard can be used to complement and improve existing systems or can be used autonomously, and multiple sites can be networked to provide an integrated system design, according to Paul Nicholas, Optex Europe's Divisional Manager: "The BoundaryGard range of products offer simplicity, reliability and versatility to customers who are looking to add external detection to their home."  

"The superb flexibility of the range means that customers can design their system to monitor specific areas or control detection to a boundary or perimeter wall  whatever best suits their needs."

The BoundaryGard range also features products that cater for situations, usually commercial environments, where detection is only required temporarily or needs to be mobile, and for locations that lack mains power. The VX-402R-GSM device, for example, combines a high stability external PIR sensor with an integrated GSM messaging system and three year battery life.

"The GSM BoundaryGard sensor is ideal for installation in empty properties, construction sites, storage facilities and remote equipment cabinets, and is so easy to install; customers can use it straight out of the box," Paul concludes.
