Texecom Sensors

Texecom sensors here cover shock detection for doors, windows and walls, door contacts and PIR motion detectors, in wired and Ricochet wireless versions. The Impaq S and Impaq SC ranges use VIBER accelerometer technology, the Micro Shock-W is an ultra-miniature wireless shock sensor, and PIRs include the AKY-0001 Capture PET detector for homes with large pets and the GBW-0001 Premier External TD-W for outdoor areas.

Choosing Texecom Sensors

Decide what you need to catch, an attempt on a door, window or wall, or movement in a room or outside, then choose wired or wireless.

Wired shock sensors

Impaq S sensors such as the AEJ-0001, AEJ-0002 and AEJ-0003 detect in three dimensions, so they can be mounted in any orientation, and have 5 selectable digital sensitivity settings for materials such as window frames and concrete. The AEJ-0014 black version has a detection range of 2m diameter on wood and 1m on concrete, and the AEL-0001 Impaq S G3 is certified to EN 50131-2-8 Grade 3.

Shock and contact in one

Impaq SC sensors add a magnetic contact to the shock sensor. The AEK-0002 and AEK-0003 are wired, in brown and anthracite, and are rated EN50131-2-6 Grade 2 alongside EN50131-2-8 Grade 2. The Ricochet Impaq SC-W GJA-0005 is wireless, lets the magnet sit on either side of the device and adds a roller shutter input for partly open protection, with a 3 year typical battery life.

Micro Shock-W and Micro contact

The GHC-0002 and GHC-0003 Micro Shock-W measure 57mm x 27.5mm x 8.2mm, run on a single CR2450 coin cell for a 3 year typical battery life and are EN50131-2-8 Grade 2 compliant. The GHA-0014 Ricochet Micro door contact is designed to be concealed within most uPVC doors and window frames, with a 4 year typical battery life.

PIR motion detectors

The AKY-0001 Capture PET has a dual element pyro sensor with 15m, 90° volumetric coverage and an adjustable mounting height. The GDB-0001 is a wireless quad element 20m PIR with an optional PetWise mode, rated EN50131-2-2 Grade 2. Outdoors, the GBW-0001 covers 12m, adjustable to 8, 5 and 2m.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Texecom PIR sensor?

A Texecom PIR sensor is a motion detector that senses the body heat of a person moving through its field of view and signals the alarm panel. Texecom makes indoor PIRs, including quad-element and pet-tolerant models, as well as external detectors for outdoor use. The range here includes indoor and external PIR motion sensors.

What is a Texecom shock sensor?

A Texecom shock sensor uses an accelerometer to detect the vibration of a forced attack on a door, window or wall. Impaq models detect in three dimensions, so they can be mounted in any orientation, and offer selectable sensitivity for different materials. The range here includes wired and wireless shock sensors.
