Scantronic DET-2R-S Wireless Shock Sensor | Accelerometer Detection | Grade 2, White/Brown/Grey
£47.69
Summary
The Scantronic DET-2R-S is a wireless shock and movement sensor designed for Grade 2 security installations certified to EN50131-5-3:2017 and PD6662:2017 standards. Featuring a built-in accelerometer, the detector can be configured to operate in either shock detection mode (sensing impacts and vibration) or movement detection mode (sensing when an object is moved), providing versatile perimeter protection for doors, windows, safes, artwork, and valuable items. Part of the Scantronic Secure Radio (SSR) product range, it features advanced two-way communication and true signal encryption, ensuring market-leading cybersecurity comes as standard.
With a slimline housing measuring just 103 x 19 x 24mm and available in three colour finishes (white, brown, and grey), the DET-2R-S provides discreet installation options that blend seamlessly with any interior design. The adjustable detection sensitivity allows installers to fine-tune the device for different applications, from detecting forced entry attempts on doors and windows to protecting high-value items from unauthorized movement. The detector operates on the 868MHz frequency band with a radio range of up to 600m in free space.
Over-the-air updates keep the device future-proof and reduce labour time onsite, whilst shortened device response times improve battery life and ensure rapid event notification, minimising false alarms. The easily available CR2 lithium battery provides a typical operational life of 2 years with low battery warning at 2.4Vdc. LED identification assists with installation and testing, and the detector operates reliably in temperatures from -10°C to +55°C with humidity tolerance up to 95%. The device offers switchable operation between Legacy mode (868.6625MHz) and SSR mode (868-868.5MHz) for compatibility with both current and legacy Scantronic control panels.

FAQs
What is the difference between shock detection and movement detection modes?
Shock detection mode senses impacts, vibrations, and attempted forced entry on doors, windows, or other surfaces. This mode is ideal for detecting breaking glass, drilling, hammering, or other physical attacks. Movement detection mode senses when the entire detector is moved from its installed position, making it suitable for protecting items that could be stolen such as artwork, safes, equipment, or valuable objects. The DET-2R-S can be configured to operate in either mode depending on the security requirement.
How does the DET-2R-S compare to the DET-2R-DC and DET-2R-SDC?
The DET-2R-S uses an accelerometer for shock or movement detection, while the DET-2R-DC uses magnetic technology to detect door and window opening. The DET-2R-SDC combines both technologies in a single device, providing dual protection with both shock detection and door contact capabilities. The DET-2R-S is best for applications requiring vibration or movement sensing, the DET-2R-DC excels at simple door/window monitoring with longer battery life (3 years), and the DET-2R-SDC provides comprehensive protection for high-security applications.
How long does the battery last in the DET-2R-S?
The DET-2R-S provides a typical battery life of 2 years using a single CR2 lithium battery. Battery life depends on the number of activations and environmental conditions. The detector draws just 20μA in quiescent mode, with a maximum current draw of 25mA during transmission. The system provides a low battery warning at 2.4Vdc to allow proactive replacement before the battery is depleted, ensuring continuous protection.
Can the detection sensitivity be adjusted?
Yes, the DET-2R-S features adjustable detection sensitivity that can be fine-tuned during installation. This allows installers to optimize the detector for specific applications and environments, reducing false alarms while maintaining reliable detection. For example, shock detection sensitivity can be set lower for solid doors or higher for glass panels, while movement detection can be calibrated based on the likelihood of accidental bumps or vibration in the installation location.
What applications is the DET-2R-S suitable for?
In shock detection mode, the DET-2R-S is ideal for protecting doors, windows, glass panels, skylights, and building perimeters against forced entry attempts. It detects breaking, drilling, hammering, and other physical attacks. In movement detection mode, it’s suitable for protecting safes, artwork, display items, equipment, tools, and other valuable objects that could be moved or stolen. The slimline design and multiple colour options make it suitable for discreet installation in residential, commercial, and retail environments.
What is the maximum distance between the detector and the control panel?
The DET-2R-S has a radio range of up to 600m in free space. However, actual range will be affected by building construction, walls, metal structures, and other environmental factors. In typical residential installations, expect ranges of 50-100m depending on building materials. For longer distances or difficult environments, wireless expanders can be used to extend coverage throughout larger properties or commercial premises.
What colour options are available?
The DET-2R-S is available in three colour finishes to suit different installation environments: white (DET-2R-S-W), brown (DET-2R-S-B), and grey (DET-2R-S-G). All variants maintain the same slimline housing dimensions and technical specifications, with colour selection purely aesthetic to blend with door frames, window frames, walls, or interior décor. The consistent slimline design across all colours ensures a discreet appearance throughout the range.
Is the DET-2R-S compatible with older Scantronic systems?
The DET-2R-S uses Scantronic Secure Radio (SSR) technology operating on 868-868.5MHz, which is compatible with current generation Scantronic control panels including the 80HE, 100WE, 200WE, and 400WE models. It also includes legacy mode support at 868.6625MHz for backward compatibility with some older Scantronic radio systems. This ensures the detector can be used in both new installations and when upgrading existing systems. Check your specific control panel model documentation to confirm compatibility.
