Glassbreak Theory Basics
How does an acoustic
glassbreak work?
FlexGuard
Flex Signal
FLEX SIGNAL
PANE OF
GLASS
• Very low frequency sound
• Results from glass vibrating upon impact
• Similar to a drum head vibration
FlexGuard
Audio Signal
AUDIO SIGNAL
PANE OF
GLASS
• Mid- to High-frequency sound
• Results from glass shattering
FlexGuard
Installation Basics
• Never exceed max range (25ft)
• Mount on opposite wall or ceiling
• Install at least 6 ft from floor
(to avoid blockage by
furniture,etc.)
FlexGuard
Installation Basics
• Always mount the sensor in direct
line of site to the glass…
• e.g….an imaginary string tied to
the detector should reach all points
of the glass without bending.
• Always use the Tester for every
installation
Installation Basics
FlexGuard
Selecting the Location
•
•
•
•
•
Clear view of glass to be protected
At least 6.5 feet above floor
At least 3.5 feet from forced air ducts
At least 3.5 feet from sirens or bells
Between the window and any heavy
protective window coverings
Installation Basics
FlexGuard
Locations to Avoid Mounting
• A corner
• On the same wall as the
protected glass
• On free-standing pillars or posts
• In rooms with noisy equipment
such as air compressors, bells,
power equipment if the
equipment will be operating
while the sensor is armed

FlexCore Signal Processing
25ft maximum range
Adjustable sensitivity
No minimum range
Remote Test Mode Enable
with FG-701
• Protected PCB in all models
FlexGuard
FlexCore Signal Processing
•Parallel multiple tasking
•Faster than sequential
processing (micro)
•Extracts over 50% more data
in same time
•Faster, more accurate false
alarm rejection
