AJAX RainShield for A-OUTDOORPASSIVE

The AJAX RainShield for A-OUTDOORPASSIVE is a weather protection accessory made for the AJAX A-OUTDOORPASSIVE outdoor passive detector. It is designed to sit over the detector so that rain and moisture are kept away from the sensing part of the unit when it is installed outside.
Outdoor passive detectors respond to changes in infrared heat across their field of view. Water on the lens or housing can interfere with this and may lead to unwanted alarms or missed detections. A dedicated shield is a simple way to reduce these problems in exposed locations.

Installation and compatibility
Before purchase, confirm that the RainShield matches your A-OUTDOORPASSIVE detector. Mounting should follow the instructions provided by AJAX, including the recommended height and angle for the detector. Keep the sensing area free of obstructions such as branches, plant growth or hanging objects, as these can affect detection regardless of the shield.
Why use a rain shield
Protecting an outdoor detector from the weather helps maintain consistent performance over time. Combined with correct positioning and regular checks of the detector’s field of view, the shield supports a more dependable outdoor alarm setup.
