About the RISCO Seismic Detector
The RISCO Seismic Detector is engineered to protect valuable assets such as vaults, safes, reinforced concrete walls, and armored cabinets. It meticulously monitors surface vibrations and temperature, reacting to a wide array of intrusion methods including sledgehammers, diamond drills, explosives, and hydraulic tools.
This versatile detector can function as a standard relay detector connected to any control panel, or as a BUS accessory when integrated with RISCO Group's control panels via the RS485 BUS, offering enhanced remote control and diagnostic capabilities.
Key Features
- Piezo sensor for sensitive vibration detection
- Low/High temperature monitoring
- Detection range up to 5 meters (16 feet)
- Tamper protection and anti-drilling shield
- Remote sensitivity control and self-test functionality
- Analogue signal output and bar graph LED indicator
- Compatibility with Stand-Alone or RISCO BUS connection
Installation Overview
This guide provides detailed instructions for installing the RISCO seismic detector in both Stand Alone and BUS modes. For specific BUS installation programming, please refer to the RISCO System installation manuals.
The installation kit includes necessary fastening sets for various structures. Mounting can be done directly onto metallic surfaces or via a mounting plate for concrete or drill-resistant surfaces.
Proper mounting is crucial to minimize false alarms. Ensure the sensor is isolated from extraneous vibrations and maintain close contact with the mounting surface. For metallic surfaces, remove any residual paint at the installation site.
Testing and Specifications
RISCO recommends performing a self-test after installation to ensure proper functioning. Both local (automatic) and remote (manual) self-tests are available.
The detector specifications include a coverage of up to 5 meters, operating voltage of 9-16 VDC, and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +70°C. The device features IP43 ingress protection and an IK08 impact rating.
For detailed ordering information, the model RK66S is described as a Seismic Detector.
