AJAX Glass Protect Acoustic Glass Break Detector, Black and White
The AJAX Glass Protect is an acoustic glass break detector from the AJAX alarm systems range. It is designed to detect the sound of glass breaking and to report that event to the security system it belongs to. This black and white version matches the colour code A-GLASSDETECT(B&W) and is intended for buyers who want the sensor to blend into their interior.
What it does
Glass break detectors work by listening for the specific frequency pattern produced when a pane of glass shatters. Unlike a simple contact sensor, which only reacts when a door or window is opened, an acoustic glass break detector can register an intrusion where the glass is broken without the opening being touched. This makes it a useful complement to standard door and window sensors.
Key features
- Acoustic detection of breaking glass
- Black and white colour finish
- Part of the AJAX wireless alarm component range
- Designed to be used within a connected AJAX security system
- Compact body suited to mounting on walls or ceilings near glazed areas
Typical uses
This detector is commonly placed in rooms where glass is a likely entry point. Typical locations include living rooms with large windows, ground-floor offices, shop fronts seen from inside, reception areas and storage rooms with glazed doors. Placement should take account of the room layout and the distance to the glass surfaces that need protecting.
Installation and setup
Installation should follow the instructions supplied with the product. Position the detector so that it has a clear line of sight to the protected glazing where the manufacturer recommends it, and avoid locations close to sources of constant noise. Pair the device with your AJAX hub using the app or the setup procedure in the documentation, and test it after fitting to confirm that it reports correctly.
Who it is for
The product suits homeowners, small business owners and installers who are building or expanding an AJAX alarm system. It is particularly useful where windows or glass partitions cannot easily be fitted with contact sensors, or where an extra safeguard against forced entry through glass is wanted.
Before you buy
Confirm that the black and white version matches your needs and that it is compatible with the AJAX system you already use. For exact technical specifications, power requirements, detection range and warranty terms, refer to the manufacturer’s documentation.
