Risco CoMET PIR Motion Sensor Pet Immune
CoMET PIR/PET Motion Detector delivers professional-grade intrusion detection specifically engineered for residential security applications. This compact passive infrared detector combines sophisticated signal processing with intelligent pet immunity features, providing homeowners with reliable motion detection while minimizing false alarms from household pets and environmental factors.
ROKONET’s engineering team has developed the CoMET PIR/PET Motion Detector to address the unique challenges of residential environments, where pets, temperature fluctuations, and electromagnetic interference can compromise traditional motion detection systems. The detector’s advanced algorithms distinguish between genuine security threats and common household disturbances.
Dual Model Configuration Options
The CoMET PIR/PET Motion Detector series offers two distinct models optimized for different residential security requirements:
Standard PIR Model (RK210PR000A)
The standard configuration provides comprehensive motion detection across a 12-meter range with a 40-foot coverage pattern. This model effectively detects human-sized intruders while filtering out small rodents and environmental disturbances through advanced signal processing algorithms.
Pet-Immune Model (RK210PT000A)
The pet-immune variant incorporates specialized detection logic that accommodates pets weighing up to 42 pounds (20kg) or multiple smaller animals. This model analyzes motion patterns, speed, and heat signatures to differentiate between pets and potential intruders, maintaining security effectiveness while preventing false alarms from household animals.
Environmental Adaptation Features
Residential environments present varying conditions that can affect motion detection accuracy. The CoMET PIR/PET Motion Detector incorporates several environmental compensation technologies to ensure consistent performance:
Temperature Compensation System
Automatic thermistor-controlled temperature compensation maintains detection sensitivity across the full operating temperature range of -5°C to 50°C (23°F to 122°F). This feature ensures reliable operation during seasonal temperature changes and prevents thermal drift that could affect detection accuracy.
RF Immunity Protection
Modern homes contain numerous electronic devices that generate electromagnetic interference. The detector provides RF immunity up to 20V/m across frequencies from 10 MHz to 1 GHz, protecting against false alarms from wireless routers, cell phones, microwave ovens, and other common household electronics.
Customizable Detection Parameters
Security professionals and installers can optimize the CoMET PIR/PET Motion Detector for specific installation requirements through selectable operational parameters:
Pulse Count Selection
The detector offers three pulse count settings (1, 2, or 3 pulses) allowing installers to balance detection sensitivity with false alarm prevention. Higher pulse counts reduce sensitivity to brief disturbances while maintaining effectiveness against genuine intrusion attempts.
- Single Pulse: Maximum sensitivity for high-security areas
- Double Pulse: Balanced performance for most residential applications
- Triple Pulse: Enhanced false alarm immunity for challenging environments
Coverage Pattern Options
Standard installation provides a 12m x 12m (40′ x 40′) detection pattern at 2.4m mounting height. The detector’s optical system creates multiple detection zones that provide comprehensive coverage while maintaining pet immunity characteristics in the lower detection zones.
Installation and Integration Advantages
The CoMET PIR/PET Motion Detector simplifies installation procedures while providing professional-grade security performance. The compact 89 x 52 x 39mm housing integrates easily into residential décor without compromising detection effectiveness.
Electrical Specifications
- Operating voltage: 9-16V DC regulated
- Current consumption: 12mA at 12V (standby)
- Alarm contact: 50mA, 24V, normally closed
- Tamper contact: 100mA, 24V, normally closed
- Minimum alarm duration: 2.2 seconds
The low power consumption enables integration with battery-powered security systems while the dual contact configuration provides both intrusion detection and tamper protection.
Optical System Design
The detector incorporates a pigmented lens system that provides white light protection, preventing false alarms from direct sunlight, vehicle headlights, or indoor lighting changes. The LED optical prism design optimizes infrared collection efficiency while maintaining the compact form factor.
Professional Installation Considerations
Proper installation maximizes the CoMET PIR/PET Motion Detector performance and minimizes false alarms. Installation guidelines developed through extensive field testing recommend:
Mounting Height and Position
Optimal mounting height of 2.4 meters (7’10”) provides the designed detection pattern while maximizing pet immunity effectiveness. The detector should be positioned to avoid direct airflow from heating or cooling systems that could cause thermal disturbances.
Detection Zone Planning
The standard model provides 12-meter linear range detection, while the pet-immune model offers 8-meter coverage at 90-degree angles. Installers can utilize these patterns to create overlapping coverage zones or focus detection on specific entry points.
Quality Assurance and Reliability
ROKONET maintains comprehensive quality control procedures throughout the CoMET PIR/PET Motion Detector manufacturing process. Each detector undergoes calibration testing to verify detection sensitivity, pet immunity thresholds, and environmental compensation accuracy.
