Ajax Motion Protect Curtain (8IN) – Precision Indoor Motion Detector with Wired Integration
The Ajax Motion Protect Curtain (8IN) is a wireless indoor IR curtain motion detector designed to protect windows, doors, and high-value areas by creating a narrow, invisible barrier. Utilizing two PIR sensors, it detects motion within a range of 6 to 15 meters, depending on sensitivity settings. With a horizontal detection angle of 6° and vertical angle of 90°, it offers precise, focused detection to minimize false alarms while securing specific zones. The 8IN version includes 8 wired inputs, enabling integration of third-party sensors for expanded hybrid system capabilities, all managed seamlessly through the Ajax security ecosystem.
