Essential Info

You don't have to sacrifice the security of your home because you own pets. With most ordinary motion detectors, a dog or cat can easy trip the sensor and cause a false alarm. With most cities cracking down on residential false alarms, you could face stiff fines, or be put on a "do not respond" list by local law enforcement.

It Won't Confuse Your Pets for Burglars
The Slimline Pet Immune PIR Motion Detector is an updated version of a motion sensor we've sold for years. This new model contains an advanced pet immune PIR detector element and lens system. Using TSI™ (Target Specific Imaging) technology, the detector ensures immunity to pets weighing up to 40 pounds (18 kg).

What's Included

  • Slimline Pet Immune PIR Motion Detector - K9-40
  • More Info


    Reliable Operation
    The detector is also notable for its high stability, enhanced RFI protection (greater than 30 V/m), and high-temperature compensation for maximum "catch" performance and unique low-temperature compensation for optimum false-alarm rejection. The pyroelectric sensor is enclosed in a sealed chamber, protected from insects and air drafts.


    Adjustable Sensitivity
    For maximum flexibility, the sensor can be switched between one and three pulses. (A pulse is a detection by the PIR element.) This allows the sensor to be operated in a maximum sensitivity mode (one pulse) or is a less sensitivity mode (three pulse) where three specific detections are needed before the sensor signals the alarm panel that it has detected motion.

    Other Features
    Other features include a walk-test LED that allows to you to test the coverage area (the LED may be disabled during normal operation). A tamper detection circuit can be connected to your alarm panel to alert it in case anyone tries to open the sensor. Variable height adjustment allows the sensor to achieve maximum sensitivity when mounted on walls between 6 and 8 feet from the floor.

    Works with all hardwired alarm panels. Wires up as a normally-closed zone.

    The Slimline Pet Immune PIR Motion Detector can be directly screwed to the wall. However, if precise directional positioning is required, use these swivel brackets:

  • Swivel Wall Mount Bracket (#7481B1)
  • Corner Mount Wall Bracket (#7481B2)
  • Swivel Ceiling Mount Bracket (#7481B3)

    TAMAS -- graasten, XX   4/13/2011
    Compatible with my older CORAL system from Visonic, works excellent
    BRUCE -- sunnyside, NY   4/6/2011
    It works well and is unbelievably affordable. It does require a 12v.DC source and you do need to pay attention to the power polarity.
    DAVID -- mosinee, WI   2/6/2011
    East install, nice corner mount
    JAMES -- wayne, WV   12/24/2010
    great product-timely shipping-easy hookup. thanks
    ANTHONY -- garden city, NY   7/26/2010
    I can not use this item. I didn't know it requires a seperate 9-16 volt power supply.
    GLENN -- san antonio, TX   4/3/2010
    everything perfect
    TOM -- eden prairie, MN   1/17/2010
    Nice PIR sensor, very straightfoward installation. Sensing range is very good.
    WILLIAM -- dunnellon, FL   11/19/2009
    Used it to cover a small bedroom 12x12. Installed in corner near ceiling. No pets. Good motion detection. Good quality for the price. No look down.
    CHRIS -- wellsboro, PA   10/2/2009
    Makes a little bit of a clicking sound when activated, and can go off multiple times within a few seconds. Detects well, works as designed.
    JOSEPH -- barnesville, PA   9/17/2009
    Not as sensitive as comparable motions but the price can't be beat. Greqt if you have pets... less chance of false alarms.
    JOE H. -- atlanta, GA   8/27/2009
    I have used this device in my home for several years and it works great. I have never had any of my pets set the sensor off, yet it successfully detects human presence. Easy to install, but it does require 4 wires (2 for power, and 2 for the output).
    KLAUS -- highland park, IL   5/8/2009
    Both don't work. The led shines up, but there is no signal on the output port, neither for movement nor for the tamper switch.
    JOHN -- milford, MI   3/17/2009
    need a good 12 volt pwer supply as an option
    RONALD -- columbia, MD   12/1/2008
    Very good - Great inside the house. Not good inside the garage where temperature reaches in the 90s(F)and sensor remains on
    DONN -- ventura, CA   11/12/2008
    Arrived as promised and worked as advertised.
    LINDA -- albuquerque, NM   9/28/2008
    Excellent sensitivity and range, yet no problem with our two cats.
    RON -- jackson, GA   9/22/2008
    Now I can finally set my alarm to away and not worry about my cat setting it off.
    ALEX -- voorhees, NJ   7/19/2008
    Good deal.
    ABEL -- hidalgo, TX   8/23/2007
    Service ok; sensors does not work durin the day.
    Bob M -- anchorage, Alaska   2/12/2012
    Great little unit. I have two of these hooked up to a Sensaphone Web600. They do a excellent job of detecting motion without picking up my little Jack Russel Terrier. I use these motion detectors with my Sensaphone to let me know when my kids have arrived home from school and to let me know if anyone is messing around in my computer room. These units don't come with a power supply or mounting bracket so be sure to order those if you buy one. Otherwise you will have to drill holes in the plastic case in the pre-marked spots in order to mount them to a wall. You can't beat the price/performance of these units.
