The LC-171 is a unique motion detector utilizing dual passive infra-red elements and Microwave technology and is designed for outdoor use in the most severe climatic conditions. The LC-171 can also accommodate pets.

High reliability is achieved by combining both dual tech hardware with highly sophisticated software and an adaptive coverage area, greatly reducing the possibility of false alarms. The active elements are comprised of a dual element PIR and advanced Microwave detector inside a stylish, rigid plastic body.

The LC-171 combines two PIR sensors, both which must be tripped, with a microwave sensor. These elements work to detect intruders without detecting pets or other animals, with the highest level of accuracy. The sensors are easily adjusted to customize range of detection.

Highly accurate sensors provide quality detection while at the same time ignoring pets or other animals weighing up to 15kg (33lb) without lens, up to 35kg (77lb).

Once the detector is installed at the recommended height, installers simply conduct a brief walk-test, make any necessary adjustments, and the unit is ready to perform. Highly visible LEDs can be viewed at a glance and help the installer identify the detection range from any distance or angle within the coverage pattern.
