What is a Glassbreak Detector?
• • • •

It listens to the sound of the breaking glass It measures the amplitude of the sound It measures the duration of the signal It provides the First Line of Defense

Glassbreak Detectors
What is the First Line of Defense?
•

Remember when security systems consisted of relay control panels, one primary loop, a #39 contact on every door and foil on every window? The use of foil was a standard practice (even an art); it provided perimeter protection and a visible deterrent Fast forward to the 1990’s and the proliferation of ZERO down systems that consisted of 2 doors and motion…FULL perimeter protection was not part of the business plan Let’s not overlook the obvious statement about even the BEST motion detectors – the intruder has to be INSIDE for the system to react! Now that we are seeing a return to more traditional installations, the timing could not be more perfect for using FlexGuard glassbreak detectors on every system! Install FlexGuard glassbreak detectors on every system and provide detection BEFORE the intruder gets in – the FIRST LINE of DEFENSE! Affordable, reliable, attractive style – make it a part of your dealer’s business plan.

Why use FlexGuard?
•

Early glassbreak detectors were not much more than a microphone, prone to many false alarms Today’s technology is much more sophisticated ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) design provides unmatched false alarm immunity without compromising detection Thousands of hours have been spent in our test laboratories to create the ASICs utilized in FlexCore processing There are 3 main ingredients of glass break detection: amplitude, frequency and duration. We are superior because of the many hours of research in understanding the relationship of these 3 ingredients while rejecting false alarms 50 thousand pieces of glass were broken and 50 thousand false alarm events were recorded in the design of this ASIC

10 Reasons Dealers Benefit from Choosing FlexGuard
Dealers can rely on FlexGuard to be the first line of defense by providing perimeter protection that is easy to install and trouble free. More FlexGuard detectors are installed worldwide than all other brands combined. FlexGuard detectors can (and should) be used on every installation. Detectors can be mounted virtually anywhere and feature a modern design that blends with any décor. Distinguish your company by offering a higher level of security. 50 thousand pieces of glass were broken and 50 thousand false alarm events were digitally recorded in the design of the FlexCore processor. In fact, there are over 2.2 million of our newest FG-1625 Series sensors sold and working trouble-free. FlexCore Signal Processing processes sound in parallel rather than sequentially for faster, more accurate detection decisions. Designed with the installer in mind, all units offer wide wiring channels and easy to connect terminal blocks. Installation is easy because can be installed with NO MINIMUM RANGE consideration. All other glassbreak detectors on the market have a minimum range. Installing these units too close to the breaking glass overloads the microphone circuit and cause a NON-DETECT! The FG-701 simulator can be used to remotely enter and exit the test mode. This eliminates valuable time during installation and testing. Four different sensitivity levels are available to match the acoustics of the room being protected. Whether choosing the hardwired, wireless or V-Plex version, all FlexGuard glassbreaks share the same sleek, sophisticated design. Units can be mounted virtually anywhere; on the opposite or adjoining wall, the window frame or on the ceiling with a maximum range of 25' from the glass and NO MINIMUM RANGE! All other glassbreak detectors on the market have a minimum range. Installing these units too close to the breaking glass overloads the microphone circuit and cause a NON-DETECT! Thousands of pieces of glass are broken every year to verify the performance on ALL types of glass. The best keep getting better, future detector development is already under way!

Creates additional revenue stream NO FALSE ALARMS. NO NON-DETECTS. NO SERVICE CALLS. False Alarms are Gone FOREVER! Easy Installation and Installer Friendly Design

Feature Information:
•

No Minimum Range. The Detector can be mounted next to glass. All other brand detectors require a minimum range (3-5ft) from the glass to avoid overloading the processor and cause a non-detect. Covers all Glass Types. Only FG1625 series detectors are UL/ULC listed for Coated and Double Pane Sealed Insulated glass. Four Sensitivity Settings. Allow the detector to match the acoustics of the room being protected, further reducing false alarms. Hardwired, Wireless and V-Plex. Only FG1625 series detectors provide a solution for any control panel used. Same family look. Whether choosing hardwired, wireless or V-Plex, all FlexGuard glassbreak share the same family look. Calibrated Remote test mode activation. The FG-701 simulator can be used to enter and exit test mode, as well as verify true operating range. 45° screw terminals. Make wiring FlexGuard glassbreak detectors a snap every time.
