The smart exit detector

The T.Rex creates a new standard and provides a complete solution to exit detection and door surveillance for access control applications. Outstanding innovations such as X-Y Targeting™ and Digital Signal Processing (DSP) implementation make the T.Rex the fastest and most reliable exit detector on the market.

X-Y Targeting targets a specific area of detection

While some exit detectors on the market offer adjustments of the detection pattern with masking or horizontal alignment, the T.Rex is the first detector to offer vertical detection targeting using two adjustable louvers located in the detection chamber. The installer "trims" the detection area by adjusting these louvers from 90° down to 5°. Horizontal adjustment is provided by rotation of the lens.

Added security

These two adjustments allow the installer to mount the detector so that the detection area will not "hit" the floor along the door jamb. This defeats attempts to circumvent door supervision by sliding objects underneath the door. Such objects would be detected by sensors mounted in a traditional way.

DSP prevents "Door Forced Open" alarms

Kantech's T.Rex utilizes infrared detection coupled with DSP sampling specifically designed for access control applications. There is a substantial operational difference between T.Rex and a common infrared intrusion motion detector.

A typical intrusion detector operates at low sensitivity levels and is looking for the positive presence of a human. An exit detector such as T.Rex, however, must detect the extremely fast movement of a hand (the target) about to push the door or turn the door handle. A failure to detect this movement prior to an exit application will actually cause a "Door Forced Open" alarm.
