Bosch DS160 High Performance Request-to-Exit Motion Sensor Sounder, Light Gray

The DS160 Series consists of two advanced detectors designed to meet the demanding requirements of Request-to-Exit (REX) applications: the DS160 Detector. These detectors are engineered for high performance in security and access control systems, offering a range of features that enhance security and usability. With adjustable timers, door monitoring with sounder alerts, and pointable coverage, the DS160 and DS161 provide excellent flexibility to meet diverse security needs. Their integration with modern systems makes them a reliable choice for ensuring secure exits while maintaining smooth operations.

A key feature of the DS160 Series is the Sequential Logic Input (SLI), which adds an extra layer of security. This unique feature ensures that only sequential detection from two connected devices can trigger an alarm, preventing false alarms caused by objects being slid under or through the door. Additionally, the detectors feature a keycard input, enabling control via external systems such as access control or card readers. The sounder alert system can be programmed to activate if the door remains open for too long, with the sounder volume being fully adjustable to 85 dB for clear, customizable notification.

These detectors are also equipped with a door monitor that allows the sensor to react based on the door’s status. If the door is opened within the defined relay time, the timer can be paused for accurate monitoring. Furthermore, the DS160 and DS161 offer selectable relay trigger modes and fail-safe/fail-secure modes, providing flexibility in how the system responds in different scenarios. Their robust features ensure that the DS160 and DS161 meet the highest standards for security and performance in various environments.
