Installation Instructions
1. INTRODUCTION
The TOWER-30AM PG2 and TOWER-30AM K9-90 PG2 (pet-immune) are 2-way, microprocessor-controlled,
wireless digital mirror PIR detectors which include the following features:
For use with all PowerMaster® control panels (version 13 and higher).
l
Adaptive Active Infra-Red Anti-Masking technology providing the most advanced reliable protection against
l
intentional masking attempts (patent pending)
Includes a fully supervised PowerG transceiver.
l
Incorporates patent pending black mirrors for extremely high white light immunity.
l
Advanced elliptical / parabolic mirror technology (patented)
l
V-slot® optic technology (patented) for improved robustness, anti-vandalism and for very high reliability.
l
Creep zone protection
l
TOWER-30AM K9-90 PG2 can distinguish between human beings and pets weighing up to 40 kg (90 lb).
l
The advanced True Motion Recognition™ algorithm (patented) allows distinguishing between the true motion of
l
an intruder and any other disturbances which may cause false alarms.
Built-in link quality indicators; no need for the installer to physically approach the control panel thus making
l
installation faster and easier.
No vertical adjustment is needed.
l
Motion event counter determines whether 1 or 2 consecutive motion events will trigger an alarm.
l
Automatic termination of walk-test after 15 minutes.
l
Microprocessor-controlled temperature compensation.
l
Sealed chamber protects the optical system.
l
Front and back tamper protection.
l
Self-test
l
Notes:
1. The pet immunity and creep zone protection were not evaluated by UL.
2. For CE installations, the pet immunity was not evaluated by DNV.
3. The pet immunity feature is not evaluated and certified by Applica Test & Certification AS.
2. INSTALLATION
2.1. General Guidance
1. Keep away from heat sources.
2. Do not expose to air drafts.
3. Do not install outdoors.
4. Avoid direct sunshine.
5. Keep wiring away from power cables.
6. Do not install behind partitions.
7. Mount on solid stable surface.
Installed in accordance with NEC, NFPA 70.
l
Installed in accordance with UL 681, Standard for Installations and
l
Classifications of burglar and Holdup Alarm Systems.
Installed in accordance with C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part
l
I, Safety Standard for Electrical Installations
Important! The detector is immune to 40 kg (90 lb) animals moving on the floor or climbing on furniture as long as the activity takes
place below 1 m (3 ft). Above the 1 m (3 ft) height limit, the detector is immune to 9 kg (20 lb) pets, but the pet immunity will
decrease as the pet gets closer to the detector. It is therefore recommended to select a mounting location that minimizes potential
close proximity of animals.
