Honeywell Home 5822T Wireless Tilt Sensor

Product Description

The Honeywell Home Intrusion 5822T is a wireless tilt sensor designed for door and window contact applications in residential and light commercial security systems. It detects changes in angle or orientation and transmits a wireless signal to a compatible security control panel when the protected surface moves. The 5822T is typically installed by licensed alarm technicians and security integrators as part of a supervised wireless zone. Its compact form factor allows discreet mounting on overhead garage doors, tilt-up panels, and similar surfaces where magnetic reed contacts are not practical.

The 5822T is suited for residential and light commercial intrusion detection systems. It is commonly used on garage doors, attic hatches, flip-up storage doors, and other surfaces that open by tilting rather than swinging or sliding. Installation does not require surface wiring runs, making it a practical choice for retrofit projects where running new wire is not feasible. Security technicians integrate it into wireless zones on compatible Honeywell Home and Resideo security panels.

Key Features

• Wireless transmission eliminates the need for hardwired zone runs to the sensor location
• Tilt-sensing mechanism suited for garage doors, attic hatches, and tilt-style panels
• Compact housing allows low-profile, discreet mounting
• Designed for supervised wireless zone operation on compatible control panels
• Sold individually as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style wireless tilt sensor for use with compatible Honeywell Home and Resideo wireless security control panels that support this sensor frequency and format. Consult the panel's compatibility list before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed alarm or low-voltage technician in accordance with local codes and the panel manufacturer's wiring and enrollment guidelines. Power down or disarm the security system before enrolling or repositioning wireless sensors. Verify the sensor transmits a clean zone signal from the intended mounting location before finalizing placement, as building materials can affect wireless range. Do not mount in locations with extreme moisture exposure unless the sensor is rated for such environments.
