Product Description
The Texecom P15-W Capture Series, Ricochet Wireless PIR Detector, 15m, Wall Mount, White is a motion detector for an intruder alarm. It is not a camera and doesn't record video. It sits on a wall and tells your alarm panel when it senses movement.
What the jargon means
- PIR stands for passive infrared: the detector picks up changes in heat as a person moves across its view.
- Dual element pyro is the type of heat sensor inside it.
- 15m / 90° volumetric means it covers a fan-shaped space up to 15 metres out, across a 90° spread.
- Ricochet is Texecom's wireless mesh technology, where devices can pass signals along via one another rather than all relying on one direct link. Texecom describes it as commercial grade wireless performance.
Before you buy
- Check your system. This is a Ricochet device, so it is meant for a Texecom Ricochet wireless alarm.
- Think about pets. It has an optional PetWise mode, so it can be set up for rooms where animals may wander.
- Choose the wall. It is wall mount only, so pick a position that looks across the room you want covered.
It meets EN50131-2-2 Grade 2, a European standard for intruder detectors that is commonly specified for homes and small businesses. The housing is white. Reference: Texecom-P15-W-GDA-0001.
