Guest livewire Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Would you recommend using Pyronix 360° (or any other 360° PIR) ceiling mounted PIR in kitchen / dinining room as per my attached sketch here. I am very limited to positions where I could mount normal PIR ie. 2 corners are facing big Patio door (2.5m wide) , corner next to patio door has high vertical radiator below and the last corner has very high kitchen cabinets below it. In addition there will be a door contact on the Patio door. GNfloor.bmp
BUSTER Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 No problem using a 360 where you've stated provide it doesn't have to conform to DD243 (overlapping areas). We use the Optex FX35 Any comments / opinions posted are my opinion only and do not represent those of my employer or Company
bellman Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 No problem using a 360 where you've stated provide it doesn't have to conform to DD243 (overlapping areas). We use the Optex FX35 29177[/snapback] Lovely detectors the optex's, better than the Pyronix 360° any day. The Pyronix 360° were a good detector, but have had several f/a problems with them recently. I Don't know if it's a batch fault or a general manufacturing problem but I ended up taking them out and putting Rokonet RK-150T's (dual tech 360°) in instead.

Nova-Security Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 NOPE Optex FX360 or scantronic 45 360 dualtec only 9m range, Optex never had any problems www.nova-security.co.uk www.nsiapproved.co.uk No PMs please unless i know you or you are using this board with your proper name.

BUSTER Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Apologies for my earlier post, it should have read Optex FX360 Any comments / opinions posted are my opinion only and do not represent those of my employer or Company

I'll never fit another one, that's for sure. Regards Bellman Service Engineer and all round nice bloke ) The views above are mine and NOT those of my employer.
BUSTER Posted October 26, 2004 Posted October 26, 2004 Whilst on the topic with regard to Optex has anyone been using the MX40QZ. Got a couple in to try but have not fitted them yet Any comments / opinions posted are my opinion only and do not represent those of my employer or Company
