The Newton is an active infra-red detection system suited to the protection of objects with a medium risk profile. It works by sending one or more light beams to a receiver, which are invisible to the naked eye. If this beam is disrupted it will trigger an alarm. The transmitter and receive units are housed in a column that, depending on the number of beams, can be up to 3 metres high. The sets are easy to mount and calibrate and come with integrated heating and synchronisation. Sets have a range of 50, 100 and 200 metres.
| How it works: | Triggers an alarm when the beam between transmitter and receiver is disrupted. Can be calibrated to AND or OR, has integrated heating and adjustable response time. |
| Location: | Works best on a flat, clean, open terrain with no obstacles blocking the line of sight between transmitter and receiver. |
| Range: | Fifty metres, 100 metres and 200 metres. |
| Height of column: | One to 3 metres. |
| Alarm zone: | Per set (transmitter and receiver). |
| Weather influence: | Does not work well in thick fog, frost, rain or snow. |
| Small animals: | Some animals may be detected by the device. |
| Advantages: | Bi-optic system that works very preventively. Familiar, easy to understand technology, takes up little space. |
| Drawbacks: | Sensitive to bad weather, and triggered by larger animals such as cats and dogs. |
| Application: | Projects with a medium risk profile. |
