PROTECH PIRAMID XL3
1 GENERAL
PIRAMID XL3 is a dual-technology sensor:
• A passive infrared unit composed of a pyroelectric infrared (PIR) sensor that detects
radiation emitted by the human body in the infrared spectrum.
• A Microwave antenna using a 10,510 GHz frequency transmitter and a Doppler Effect
receiver detect changes in the state of the radiation field caused by passage of an object
or body in the lobe created by the antenna.
The detection zone formed by the lobe of the microwave antenna and the beams from the mirror of
the PIR create an invisible detection zone. To trigger an alarm, it is necessary that the object or
intruder pass through the detection zone.
MAIN FEATURES:
• Maximum outdoor range:
SDI-78XL3-A: 98ft x 98ft / 30m x 30m
SDI-78XL3-B: 98ft x 33ft / 30m x 10m
SDI-78XL3-C: 131ft x 19.7ft / 40m x 6m
SDI-78XL3-D: 131ft x 9.8ft / 40m x 3m
SDI-78XL3-H: 98ft x 85ft / 30m x 26m
SDI-78XL3-H60: 98ft x 46ft / 30m x 14m
SDI-78XL3-H40: 98ft x 23ft / 30m x 7m
SDI-78XL3-H20: 98ft x 9.8ft / 30m x 3m
• Horizontal orientation +/- 90° in 10° increments. Vertical orientation from 0° to -10°
maximum.
• Anti-masking function by infrared Led.

4 INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
It is important to follow certain rules to ensure proper installation of the detector:
-
ENSURE THAT NO VEGETATION IS FOUND IN THE DETECTION ZONE.
CHECK THAT THE CLOSEST VEGETATION DOES NOT OBSTRUCT THE DETECTION
ZONE IN CASE OF WIND.
DON’T DO
-
RESPECT THE RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION HEIGHT.
6.6ft and 13ft / 2m and 4m
Installation height must be between

ount the detector on a wall or solid post
If it is installed on a building with a metal surface,

-
INSTALL THE DETECTOR ON A STABLE MOUNTING SURFACE
DON’T mount the detector on a surface
exposed to strong vibrations, such as a fence
with no support or a flimsy metal surface.
DO: M
the support must be vibration-resistant.

USE AS A MOTION DETECTOR AND NOT AS A PERIMETER DETECTOR
DON’T use the PIRAMID XL3 as a perimeter
detector. For good transverse detection, the
sensitivity must be set to maximum, which risks
increasing the number of unwanted alarms
triggered.
DO: Use the PIRAMID XL3 as an approach
detector (use of A, B or C lenses possible). A
low sensitivity setting enables a reduction of the
number of unwanted alarms triggered.
