Six steps to correctly install the burglar alarm

How to install anti-theft alarm? For the installation of anti-theft alarms, in the past, everyone thought that if they were installed and fixed on the building according to the requirements in the manual, a slight visual inspection of the orientation and proper adjustment of the angle would be sufficient. In fact, the installation process of burglar alarms is a time-consuming and time-consuming process. Here we talk about the installation of anti-theft alarms.

Selection of mounting brackets

In the past installation of the project, for the installation of the indoor wall-mounted alarm probe, considering the construction cost and not selecting the mounting bracket, some people even completely ignored the importance of the mounting bracket, resulting in instability of the entire system. , Including the increase in the difficulty of debugging, because the stent can not be "universal" adjustment characteristics so that the probe can not be accurately adjusted to the detection area for a long time. So sometimes this kind of purchase cost cannot be omitted. Calculating the labor costs for installation and commissioning and the labor costs for future maintenance may well exceed the value of this small part. For a project manager, this account can still be considered clear.

Of course, sometimes you don't need to use this mounting accessory. For example, when you install an alarm detector on a wall at both sides with a vertical angle of 90 degrees, you do not need to use this mounting part at the time, but only on the wall part. Several holes were drilled with an electric hammer, and then the expansion plug was installed. The tape was placed on the probe's back plate and tapped into the rubber plug. This installation method can omit a mounting bracket, so for the installation of indoor wall-mounted alarm probes, it is often necessary to determine whether or not to use any installation method according to their respective installation environment.

Laying of pipelines

In past engineering practice, you will find that some anti-theft alarm projects have hidden dangers in the pipeline construction. The hidden dangers we are talking about here do not refer to fire hazards, but to hidden dangers of man-made destruction. At the installation site of certain detectors, we can often see the use of PVC pipe sleeves or exposed alarm detection cables. The pipeline installation height is not enough and can be reached by human hands, so these can be regarded as hidden damage to the system. Some people think that this is not important, considering that the host part of the entire system may be equipped with a tamper-proof function, and any damage system can be detected. However, this may greatly affect the working efficiency of the system, or even cause the system to be shut down for repair. At this time, the system maintenance engineer needs to devote more effort and brain power to carefully find this fault point. If it cannot be found in a short time, it will be impossible for some systems to arm the system users within the warning time, because the system will think that the failure has not been ruled out.

The use of PVC pipes or tanks for the protection of anti-theft system pipelines in certain current projects is, I think, obviously wrong. At the same time, for construction or investors, this is extremely unprofessional. Compared to galvanized steel pipes, PVC pipes are very vulnerable to man-made damage. Although it is inexpensive, it is extremely deficient in the hardness index of galvanized steel pipes. From some media, you can see many overseas engineering companies installing pictures of anti-theft alarm probes. When you look carefully at the pictures, you can see that the sheath pipe that extends from the detector is a metal hose, and the special card connector Connect the hose to the detector. The other end of the hose is connected to a fully sealed metal box. The other end of the box is connected to a galvanized steel pipe.

The hidden nature of the pipeline

In the actual installation process, especially for some new buildings. In the design and installation, the concealment of the detector pipeline installation shall be fully taken into account. When pre-embedding the protection pipe, it is still necessary to consider pre-embedding. This work can be completed by the civil construction unit when pouring concrete with the building structure, so as to ensure the concealment of the entire transmission path to the greatest extent. At the same time, it should also be considered that the pre-buried pipe can be easily and conveniently connected with the main bridge, so that a small diameter steel can be pre-placed in each jacket pipe so as to facilitate the use of the threader later. cable.

Redundant cable length

When a probe is installed and fixed, the next thing that needs to be done is to strip the probe. At this time, some people often overlook how to accurately calculate the cable length that should be reserved. Too short connection cables can cause difficulty in probe setup. When the angle of the detector needs to be adjusted, the cable is found to be too short (the excess cable has been cut off). The long connecting cable will be difficult to close as the detector's face cover, at this time can only pull the excess cable out of the detector box. However, new problems will arise at this time, and extra cables will be exposed outside the detector and cause potential safety hazards. In the above situation, we can detect and adjust the azimuth angle after the detector is installed and fixed. At this time, we can determine the required length according to the actual length, and remove the excess cable to facilitate stripping. The wiring base of the probe circuit board.

Connection of tamper switch

When connecting the detector, the tamper switch of the detector should be connected to the entire system as much as possible. The advantage of doing so is to enhance the anti-destruction of the entire system. As far as the projects that have been implemented or are currently being implemented are concerned, there are very few contractors who carefully connect the tamper switches according to the specifications, and often use a four-core cable of RVV4x0.5 to connect the detectors. Two of the cores are used to connect the detector power supply, and the other two cores are connected to the alarm switch signal. Instead of using a six-core cable to connect the switch and the working power, the remaining two cores are used to connect the tamper signal. . If the system does not connect to the tamper switch of each detector at this time, for a thief who understands the burglar alarm system, he can easily open each time the system is in the disarming period (that is, the non-working period). The detector and its "hands and feet", it can be imagined that such a system safety factor is very low. Of course, the connection of the tamper switch cannot be said to have completed the construction of high-security protection. At this time, the cable connected to the tamper switch should be connected to the host's 24-hour uninterrupted zone terminal block. In this case, it can be guaranteed. The entire system front-end probe device is in a tamper alert time of 24 hours. Here we can think about how many anti-theft alarm projects will seriously implement this process. I think such a project will be rare.

Pre-determined installation location

Determining the installation location of the detector is also easily overlooked in the actual project. The selection process of the anti-theft alarm installation position is different from the installation position of the camera. Failure to handle it will cause the false alarm rate and the false negative rate to continuously increase, which will affect the overall system performance. When the engineering installer finds that the location is not ideal, there are many problems to be discovered when moving the detector installation location. First of all, the pipeline needs to be moved; if it is easier to reduce the distance of the pipeline, it is feared that in the event of an extension of the pipeline, it is necessary to face the problem of extension of the cable connection. In order to facilitate future maintenance, it must be designed at this location. A junction box, this junction box will also have a hidden danger. I think the emergence of this problem is that owners do not want to see, so early determination of the location of the detector is very critical, of course, in addition to the above issues there is a problem that we can not ignore, that is, easy to change the installation location also The building decoration will be damaged. For example, you need to move a ceiling-mounted detector installed on a decorative surface consisting of a whole piece of three-plywood to another location. This will be regarded as impossible work.

Anti-theft alarm system detector installation process is a complex process, due to its working principle determines the particularity of the installation, and often this is easily overlooked by everyone, and with the closed-circuit television monitoring system camera installation profit coefficient This is a far cry from technical and profit perspectives. Therefore, we can more clearly see that we must design and install a good anti-theft alarm system, we must do a good job of planning and design work.
