Installation Instructions

Description

The 5600 Glassbreak Sensors are designed to detect
breaking glass caused by forced entry into a protected
window or door. The ‘Tru-Dual’ transducer design provides
excellent false-alarm immunity in noisy environments.

Figure 1a. Frame Mounting

The 5600 Sensors process both acoustic and vibration
information to identify breaking windows. Frame mounting
the 5600 Sensors eliminates detection concerns with drapes
and blinds. The built-in reed switch models provide
protection against forced opening of windows or doors, as
well as breaking glass.

Note These sensors may not consistently detect
cracks, bullets, or similar breaks. Glassbreak sensors
should always be backed up by interior protection such
as a motion detector.

Mounting

The 5600 sensors are designed to mount either inside the
frame (see Figure 1a) or on the facing (see Figure 1b). Refer
to Figure 3 for recommended mounting locations and
coverage range. The mounting location should provide good
mechanical coupling from glass to sensor and an
unobstructed microphone view of the glass. If structural
integrity of the frame is poor, temporarily mount the sensor
and follow the steps in Testing for range testing. Do not
exceed the tested range of the sensor.

Figure 1b. Facing Mounting

Note For applications with more than one framed

window, use multiple 5600s or a ShatterPro II.

Use the screws provided to mount the sensor securely to the
frame. A loosely mounted sensor will not perform correctly.
The small cover screw must be used to permanently attach
the cover (see Figure 2).

Reed Switch Models

Models 5620 and 5625 require the magnet be mounted on
the moving portion of the window or door. Magnet
placement must be within 3/4" (19mm) of sensor, either
behind or below (see Figure 4). Center magnet as marked
on the printed circuit board (see Figure 5).

Note Mounting sensor or magnet on steel surfaces will
reduce gap.

Wiring

The 5600 sensor provides multiple wiring entrances (see
Figure 6). Use rear holes or knock-out as needed. It is
recommended to tape over unused holes.
