Potter Electric Signal Co. Us EVD-1 Vibration Detector

Product Description

The POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL CO. US EVD-1 is a standalone electronic vibration detector designed to sense physical shock and vibration on protected surfaces. It mounts directly to walls, safes, vaults, or structural elements and triggers an alarm output when vibration exceeds the detection threshold. The EVD-1 operates as a self-contained unit, making it suitable for installations where a dedicated vibration sensing device is required without a larger integrated panel. Security and fire alarm professionals are the primary installers of this device.

The EVD-1 is used in commercial and light industrial applications where physical intrusion detection via vibration sensing is required. Typical installation scenarios include safes, ATMs, vaults, server rooms, and secured storage areas. The device is sold individually as a single unit, allowing installers to deploy it as a point detector within a broader security or alarm system architecture.

Key Features

• Standalone design requires no external controller for basic operation
• Electronic vibration detection suited for shock and physical intrusion sensing
• Single-unit packaging allows flexible deployment across multiple protected points
• Category-rated vibration and shock detector for commercial security applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style standalone vibration detector for commercial security and alarm installations where a discrete vibration sensing point is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed security or fire alarm technician in accordance with local codes and the manufacturer product manual. Power down or de-energize the alarm circuit before wiring the device into the system. Mount the unit firmly to the surface being monitored to ensure reliable vibration coupling and accurate detection. Consult the product manual for sensitivity adjustment and output wiring guidance before commissioning.
