Jablotron JA-10 motion detectors for indoor security

Typical uses

JA-10 motion detectors are designed to identify unauthorized movement inside protected indoor spaces and report incidents to the alarm control panel. Common installations include living rooms, corridors, small offices and storage areas.

Choosing the right detector

Key selection points are sensor type (e.g., PIR), detection coverage and pattern, pet immunity options, and power source (battery or wired). Also consider tamper protection and whether the unit is supported by your control panel.

For homes a standard indoor PIR with appropriate coverage is usually sufficient; for commercial settings prefer models with advanced filtering and installer-adjustable sensitivity to reduce false alarms.

Installation & best practices

Mount detectors to cover main traffic routes and avoid pointing them at heat sources, direct sunlight or ventilation outlets. Proper mounting height and angle significantly affect performance.

Test detectors after installation and set up a maintenance routine for battery checks and functionality tests to ensure long-term reliability.

• Confirm compatibility with your alarm panel (model/firmware).
• Verify detection angle and range for the intended room.
• Choose pet-immune versions if animals will be present.
• Schedule periodic tests and battery replacement.
