Optex HX-80NRAM Wireless Outdoor Pir Motion Detector

Product Description

The OPTEX HX-80NRAM is a wireless outdoor passive infrared (PIR) motion detector designed for long-range, narrow-angle coverage in perimeter security applications. The unit detects motion by sensing changes in infrared radiation within its detection zone and transmits a wireless signal to a compatible receiver or control panel. Built for outdoor installation, it is rated for exterior environments where weather resistance and detection reliability are required. Security technicians and alarm system installers are the primary trade professionals who specify and install this device in residential and commercial perimeter protection systems.

The HX-80NRAM is suited for applications where a focused, narrow detection corridor is needed over an extended range — such as long driveways, walkways, fences, and building perimeters. Its narrow detection pattern reduces false activations from adjacent areas while maintaining sensitivity along the target corridor. This makes it a practical choice for sites where standard wide-angle PIR coverage would trigger nuisance alarms from nearby movement outside the intended zone.

Key Features

• Wireless transmission eliminates the need for detection-zone wiring runs
• Long-range, narrow detection pattern suited for corridors, driveways, and fence lines
• Outdoor-rated construction for use in exterior environments
• Passive infrared sensing technology for reliable motion detection
• Designed for integration with compatible wireless security receivers and control panels

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style wireless outdoor PIR detector for use with compatible OPTEX wireless security receiver systems. Consult OPTEX documentation and your panel manufacturer for verified receiver compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed alarm or low-voltage systems technician in accordance with local codes and the manufacturer's installation manual. Power down or disconnect the receiving control panel before pairing or mounting the detector. Mount the unit at the manufacturer-recommended height and angle to achieve the intended narrow detection corridor. Verify wireless signal strength at the mounting location before finalizing hardware installation.
