FLX-A-AM

One detector provides two coverage patterns. Rotate the lens 180° to switch between 15 m, 85° wide detection and an 24 m narrow corridor. This gives installers more flexibility while reducing the number of detector types required for different rooms

OPTEX Super Multi-Dimensional Analysis assesses detection information to help filter environmental disturbances such as temperature, brightness and moving shadows. The result is more stable indoor detection with fewer nuisance alarms.

The sensing element is designed around the characteristics of the human body, helping the detector distinguish people from smaller sources of movement. This supports accurate intrusion detection and reduces unwanted alarms.

Gives installers greater freedom when positioning the detector. The wider mounting range also suits properties with different ceiling heights without requiring a different sensor.

With high security applications in mind, the FlipX Advanced comes with an Infrared anti-masking function which generates a trouble signal when the detector is masked. It has two independent antimasking functions, one on the lens surface and one on the microwave so should one of them be covered, it will generate an alarm.

FLX-A-AM is EN 50131 Grade 3 compliant, providing a higher level of protection for commercial and higher-risk environments. Grade 3 certification means the detector is designed to resist more deliberate attempts to defeat or interfere with the alarm system, including masking, while maintaining reliable indoor intrusion detection.

The specially designed spherical lens provides a precise focal length of each detection ray onto the pyroelectric elements. This advanced lens design helps to ensure consistency throughout the field of detection and considerably reduces the chance of missed alarms.

For increased performance and precision, Advanced Models go beyond standard sensitivity settings. Alongside low, medium, and high, we have added "super high sensitivity", purpose-built for high-risk sites, maintaining stable, reliable detection even when the temperature difference between a person and their environment is very small.

FlipX gives installers two detection patterns from a single sensor. Simply rotate the lens 180° to switch between 15 m wide-angle coverage for rooms and open spaces, or 24 m narrow coverage for corridors and long areas. This flexibility means the same detector works across different applications, helping installers simplify product selection, carry fewer sensor models and adapt to the layout during installation.

FlipX uses a specially designed human-shaped pyroelectric element to closely match the shape and movement of the human body. Combined with advanced detection logic, the sensor identifies genuine intrusion more accurately while filtering environmental disturbances and other common causes of unwanted alarms. This delivers more stable detection across a wide range of indoor environments.
