Passive infrared & microwave combination
detector
MX-40/50

Microwave technology :
Anti-Crosstalk System (Patent Pending)
Because Optex's unique microwave technology allows the
design of antenna settings differently from conventional
methods, the Anti-Crosstalk System of the MX-40/50 prevents
interference from other microwaves.
When several detectors are placed in combination in one
location, false alarms may occur due to matching
frequencies, because microwaves from each detector may cause
interference with each other. But MX-40/50 greatly reduce
interference to prevent false alarms.
Passive infrared technology :
Quad Zone Logic (Patent Listed)
The highly accurate and reliable detector pattern will
maintain its sensitivity through the entire detection areas
even in high temperature or low contrast environments. Quad
Zone Logic creates an extremely high vertical zone density
more then two or three times the size of conventional PIRs.
These taller zones capture the entire body mass and enable
detection of even the smallest temperature variance against
the background with improvement to take into count of
dead zone created by furniture or partitions.
