QUAD Passive Infra Red Detector

,1752'8&7,21

The QUATRO+ is a QUAD passive infrared detector which
employs a quad element pyroelectric sensor, providing two
completely separate dual element PIR detectors for increased
reliability (Fig. 1).

A choice of four
interchangeable lenses is
provided: wide angle,
long-range, ultra-wide
angle and pet alley.

The two separate dual
passive infrared detectors
use the same optical
system to cover t he same
area. The zones
monitored by detector 1
are positioned slightly
above the zones monitored by detector 2.
Both detectors must be tripped simultaneously to activate an
alarm. This provides a hi gh immuni ty agai nst fal s e alar ms c aus ed
by various heat sources or rodent s, which ar e located in t he field
of view of only one detector and not in the other. The QUATRO+

principle of operation and its unique
special processing method increase
the immunity to internal circuit noise
and random environmental distur­bances, without compromising
detector sens itivity.

Both dual PIR detectors (1 and 2)
have independent, alternate polarity
pulse count signal process ing circ uits
– one for each detector.

When alternate polarity pulse count
signal processing is selected, each
PIR (1 and 2) must detect motion in
both of their fi elds (+) and (–).

This means that motion must be detected in all four fields
(beams) of a zone to report an al arm - see Figure 1. This signal
processing provides QUATRO+ with unprecedented protection
against false alarms.

A special QUATRO+/S model, wit h for m C c ontac ts ( N.O. + N.C. )
is also availabl e.

COVERAGE PATTERNS

The QUATRO+ has a selection of four interchangeable lenses:

Lens B. Long Angle
Maximum Coverage 3 X 27 m
(10 X 90 ft)

Current: 17 mA at 12 VDC.
Alarm Output: Normally closed (fail-safe) contacts. 18 ohm

resistor in series with contacts. Rating - 0.1A resistive / 24 VDC.
Tamper Output: Normally closed. Rating - 0.5A resistive / 24
VDC.

Alarm Period: 2-7 seconds.
Pulse Counter: Alternate polarity pulse count operation.
LED: Walk Test enabled or disabl ed with internal link.
Detector: Quad-element low noise pyroelectric detector.

Lens D. Pet Alley

Maximum Coverage 13.5 X 13.5
m (45 X 45 ft)

Note: To allow extra free height
for pets, set the vertical
adjustment scale to +2°. Install
the detector at a height that
places the detection pattern at
least 30 cm (1 ft) above the pet ’s
activity

To change a lens: inser t a small sc rewdriver i nto the lens holder
side locking tab and rotate the screwdriver handle downward. The
lens holder will release (Fig. 3).

Insert the new lens with the smoot h surfac e outside and the lens
designation letter in the upper right corner (Fig. 4). Carefully
center the lens s o that the di stanc e from its edges t o the edge of

Attention! This unit is designed for indoor use only.

The QUATRO+ PIR can be installed directly on a wall (surface
mounted) or in a corner. An optional PIR mounting bracket (BR-1)
is also availabl e,( par a. 3.3 and Fi g. 5. ) Always mount the uni t on
a firm and stable surface.

A. Select the mounting l ocation so that the expected motion of an

intruder will cross the beams of the coverage patter n.

B. Select the most convenient mounting height. Built-in

installati on aids enable you to mount the unit anywhere up to
3 m (10 ft) height. An accurate adjustment table determines
the recommended angles for various combinations of range
and mounting height (Table 1)

C. QUATRO+ is extremely immune to air turbulence and RFI

interference. However , to minimize pos sible fals e alarms, it is
highly recommended to avoid ai ming the detector at heater s,
sources of li ght, or windows s ubjected to direc t sunlight. Also
avoid running wiring c lose to high power electrical cables .

D. Remove the front cover (Fig. 3). Mount the base (equipped

with the printed circuit board) in the location and height
selected for opt imum cover age. For sur face mounti ng use the
two knockouts at the back of the base; for c orner mounting
use the knockouts on the angled sides. The unit must be
fastened firmly to the mounting surface to avoid possible
vibrations.

E. Seal all openings in the base wit h RTV to prevent i nsects and

air drafts from entering the unit.

To route wires into the
detector, use either the
wiring knockout s loc at ed at
the bottom of the unit
base, or the channel on
the backside of the base
and its knockout. The
channel allows wire r outing
under the detector from the
ceiling side (Fig. 6). Refer
to Figure 7 and connect
wires to the termi nal block
in the following order.

A. Connect TAMP N.C.

terminals to a normally
closed 24-hour protec-

tion zone of the c ontrol

panel. Tamper contact
will open when cover is
removed.

B. Connect RELAY N.C.

terminals to a normally

the control panel. Relay
contacts will open when
motion is detected or
during power loss.
