Product data sheet for the GE Security 6187 SharpShooter Industrial/Outdoor PIR Motion Sensor (6187CTX) — a rugged Fresnel-lens detector for harsh environments.
Product data sheet for the GE Security 6187 SharpShooter® Industrial/Outdoor PIR Motion Sensor (6187CTX) — a rugged Fresnel-lens passive infrared detector built for harsh environments.
The rugged passive infrared 6187 SharpShooter detectors work well in harsh environments, including extremely cold temperatures. The unique design enables use in applications ranging from outdoors to indoor industrial plants where the sensor may be exposed to weather, dust, shock, and severe temperatures. Available as either a hard-wired (6187CTX) or wireless (618703) device.
Each 6187 unit uses a dual-element pyroelectric sensor with jumper-selectable one- or two-zone detection, plus a sequence processor combining bidirectional pulse counting and motion verification. A high-resolution Fresnel lens focuses infrared energy on the pyroelectric sensor while a separate white light filter blocks stray and reflected light.
Housed in a cast-metal housing for durability, designed to mount flat on a wall (a separate swivel bracket is available for additional flexibility). The back case is symmetrical, allowing conduit entry from bottom, left, or right (top entry is not recommended). The case and mounting screws are gasketed for water resistance. Operating temperatures range from -40 to 120°F (-40 to 50°C).
