OPTEX REDSCAN LiDAR sensors helping to further enhance security at Malca-Amit's London-based vault

“We needed to find the right technology that could be fully integrated into Malca-Amit's existing systems, and help contribute to a cohesive, multi-layered security approach,” says Marek Jakubczyk, Group Managing Director at Sovereign Fire and Security. “OPTEX’s REDSCAN Pro LiDAR sensors were the ideal fit, providing the highest level of precise detection, and help support operational efficiency within the vault, ensuring security measures remain aligned with the practical requirements of a working facility.”

Allan Finn, Global Commodities Director at Malca Amit says that OPTEX’s multi-layered security approach was integral: “The OPTEX REDSCAN has proved invaluable in enhancing both the physical and technological layers that protect our sites. The sensors have proven to be highly efficient, reliable and impenetrable, as well as cost effective. We are continuing to work with both Sovereign Fire and Security and OPTEX to further develop their utility and deployment.”

OPTEX REDSCAN Pro LiDAR sensors provide highly precise, real-time detection of both moving and stationary objects within defined detection zones with minimal false alarms. Their accuracy and integration capabilities facilitate swift and smooth investigation of any trigger. Compact and discrete, the sensors provide highly targeted and accurate coverage in narrow gaps and restricted spaces that other technologies cannot reach. Using pulsed light, REDSCAN operates reliably in complete darkness, low visibility or adverse weather conditions, auto-calibrating to maintain pinpoint accuracy. The sensors can also be configured across multiple detection zones, with the ability to tailor sensitivity, size and alert rules to suit operational requirements.

“We are pleased to be working in partnership with Sovereign to support Malca-Amit's layered security approach,” says Dale Jones, Project Sales Manager at OPTEX. “Our REDSCAN LiDAR technology is designed to provide precise, reliable detection while supporting a layered security approach without impacting day-to-day operations.”
