The TAKEX PA-6820E is a vertical curtain passive infrared motion sensor designed for precise long-range detection up to 20 metres. Featuring a slim, compact dome design and advanced mirror optics, it delivers sharp, reliable detection zones ideal for corridors, perimeters, and narrow passageways.
Engineered for high stability, the PA-6820E offers four-step adjustable sensitivity (60%–120%), a selectable pulse count (1–4) for different security requirements, and a noiseless solid-state relay for enhanced durability. Its auto alarm memory function, dual-colour LED indicators, and immunity to RFI and environmental noise make it a dependable choice for professional security installations.
The PA-6820E can be ceiling-mounted up to 2.6m or wall-mounted with an optional bracket (BCW-401), making it versatile for a variety of installation environments.
