UTC Fire & Security (UTCFS) has developed the most advanced and sophisticated mirror optics in the security industry for its motion sensors. This, combined with unique signal processing, make UTCFS products both more stable in harsh environments and more sensitive for reliable detection. Combining the best of both worlds, UTCFS has developed both step focus and gliding focus optical mirror systems in the one mirror design, resulting in a powerful hybrid optical system. Due to the “gliding focus” principle, each mirror segment creates a continuous curtain. This is achieved as the focal point continuously “glides” from a short focal length (undercrawl) to a long one (long range), as the mirror surface progresses from top to bottom.

Superior Mirror Optics

Advanced technology, makes it a simple choice.

Superior CoverageThe best optics in the industry provides you with better coverage so that intrusion attempts will not be missed.

Superior false alarm immunity:Excellent detection on warm days immune to sunlight, rodents and other small infrared objects.

Lower power consuption:On average, UTC Fire & Security motion sensors consume half the power consumption of most competitors detectors.

Superior protection against sabotage:The most sophisticated anti-masking technology in the industry to prevent deliberate attempts to sabotage detectors

Freedom of installation:UTC Fire & Security sensors tolerates wall angle deviation and different mounting heights. No sensitivity adjustment is needed for shorter distances and coverage will not be blocked by objects (only partial loss to coverage occurs).

Simply the bestUTC Fire & Security derives its expertise from the acquisition of Aritech, a company with over 25 years experience in mirror optic design. Aritech sensors are used in some of the most high profile locations in the world.

Most competitor motion detectors use multiple disparate beams that create fingers of detection that leave some areas

UTC Fire & Security’s step and gliding curtain mirror optics provides solid exposure across the entire coverage area.

Better Optics, Better Performance.


The higher the quality of information you have to make a decision, the more likely you will be to make the right choice. The same is true with motion sensors. The better the quality of the optics hitting the sensor board, the easier it is for the sensor to make the right choice between a false alarm and a genuine intrusion attempt.

4D signal processing allows the PIR channel to intelligently analyse a signal pattern and distinguish between real human movement and false alarm hazards. The PIR channel in it’s own right is resistant to false alarms by analysing the size, shape and speed of successive signals. 4D Signalling is available with most of UTCFS’s motion sensors.

4D and 5D Digital Signal Processing

Industry leading sensor analytics


5D is the next generation and building on the strengths of 4D, it adds an intelligent differentiation between fast and slow moving signals. When a slow thermal source is detected, the signal processing switches automatically to the 5D mode and executes additional pattern recognition to distinguish this signal from a slow walking person. If the signal fits, it must be an intruder and an alarm is generated. If there is no fit, the signal is ignored, which ensures signals such as moving reflections of sunlight are filtered out. The result is a unique combination of high sensitivity detection with high false alarm immunity without the need for manual sensitivity adjustment.

Auto focus for constant sensitivity

Most sensors require you to turn down the sensitivity if they are placed in an area smaller than the prescribed range of the detector. For instance placing a non-UTCFS 12m detector in a 6m room will require the installer to reduce the sensitivity settings to avoid false alarms. Being forced to turn down the sensitivity directly reduces the ability of the detector to detect human movement particularly under crawl. The result is an installation that is less likely to false alarm but substantially degrades the ability to detect intruders effectively.

No backlobe–no false alarmRCR is unlike any dual technology sensor. It combines radar and PIR technology which gives you precise coverage, accurate detection and unsurpassed false alarm immunity. Traditional dual technology sensors can generate false alarms and increased cost from microwave bleeding and back lobe. Or worse, they can fail to detect because of decreased sensitivity. RCR – the sensor to use when failure is not an option.

When you can’t afford to take chances, Range Control Radar (RCR) is the answer. With traditional dual technology sensors, false alarms from mystery sources – adjacent office activity, trees brushing against windows, street traffic, etc. - can create a nightmare situation for you and your customers. RCR eliminates this problem with its precise range control and radar accuracy. Install RCR with confidence – not only have you protected your customer from intrusion, you’ve protected them from false alarms.

The RCR-C detector is perfect for high security applications that require stealth protection and range accuracy. Mount a unit in microwave only mode behind a curtain or dry wall for superior stealth protection.


Advanced Anti-masking protectionGrade 3 Anti-masking & beyond

Range Control Radar Anti-masking

UTCFS has always provided the market with the best available technology to achieve the highest anti-masking performance against sabotage. All of UTCFS’s range of anti-masking detectors provide powerful protection against sabotage attempts to grade 3 compliance including immunity to ambient light and flashlights.

UTCFS uses its own patented Active Infra Red (AIR) technology to provide the best protection against anti-masking attempts. The VE700AM series and the EV1000 series extend on this technology with fourth generation of UTCFS’s patented AIR technology.

This new technology provides protection not only outside but inside the detector providing a higher level than required by EN50131 grade 3 compliance. This gives superior protection against sabotage attempts such as spraying, covering and device penetration. It will detect the widest variety of materials, sprays and lubricants and will report any change in status by using light guides and directional coupling. Full self diagnostics including dynamic/cyclic test of pyro and Anti-masking circuitry on a routine basis ensure it is always operating correctly and has not been subject to sabotage.

The DD669AM is the first detector that features advanced Grade 3 certified anti-masking via range control radar.

The V700 series and the EV100 series now benefit from the 4th Generation of UTCFS’s exclusive AIR technology.

Anti-masking via UTCFS’s Range Control Radar ensures that there is a virtual shield at 40cm from the detector that includes the wall behind the detector. This provides superior protection against sabotage. True range control ensures that there is no bleed beyond 50cm that may cause a false alarm. The DD669AM is the first detector ever to utilise Range Control Radar in order to achieve grade 3 certified anti-masking.

The VE700 series allows you to determine the direction of the intruder across the surveillance area. The VE700 series can trigger an alarm when an intruder walks from left to right and differentiate intruder movement from right to left, and vice versa.

Direction sensitive motion sensor

State of the art Anti-masking with VE700AM series

Superior false alarm immunityThanks to the DSP driven detection algorithm, it will filter out any false alarm signals from a stationary thermal source and react only to alarm signals from a moving source, such as an intruder. This makes the VE735 the best solution against false or un-wanted alarm where other PIR sensors would fail.

VE700 Series is the most intelligent PIR motion sensor with a reliability never seen in any PIR before.

The multi channel AM technology utilised in the VE700AM series capable of detecting any AM attempt, up to 30 cm from the detector. Making the detector immune to partial masking attempts, system malfunction, insect presence, and even white-light jamming.
