Taut Wire Detection

Paramount NIR represents the highest security solution for protecting sites against intruders. The system is based on sensor posts which connect all types of wires such as regular wire, double braided wire or barbed wire in order to create wire detection screen. Each NIR sensor converts mechanical forces into electrical signals which will be processed by an integral processing unit. Any attempt of climbing, spreading or cutting through the wires will immediately sends an alarm to the Paramount fence analyzer or control computer centre.
The Paramount NIR solution is installed in dozens of sites around the world covering sensitive premises such as Army bases, Airports, Manufacturing sites, Petrochemical sites etc. NIR uses advanced technology which allows it to face all weather conditions, for the sake of intruder detection only.
The Taut wire solution is ideal for installing as a standalone fence, temporary fence, an addition to a new or existing installation or for the protection of walls, roofs or desks and counters.
Taut wire can be supplied with a HV electrified option (excluding barbed wire), this allows the HV fence to be disarmed during the day, but should an attempt be made to climb, part or cut the fence wires an alarm signal will be raised. This is an ideal solution where a standard electrified fence may accidentally shock staff or legitimate personnel, but where a high security detection solution must be maintained if the HV is turned off.
Sensor Post NIR is based on sensor posts, each of which contains an integral signal processing unit in addition to the sensors. This electronic unit performs local signal processing, communicates with the central computer at the control station, and controls a local dry multi-purpose contact. The rugged sensor contains no electrical contacts, moving or rubber parts. As a result of the ruggedness and self-alignment ability of the sensors, installing the posts and connecting the taut wires to the sensors does not require any special training. The post's signal processor has an additional input to which a vibration sensor can be connected. If an intrusion is detected by that sensor, the dry contact is activated and a message is passed via the communication line to the control centre.
Low False Alarm Rate The specially designed sensors and unique digital post processing units insure constant sensitivity that is not affected by weather conditions. The NIR system operates equally well in all seasons, and the false/nuisance alarm rate is almost zero.
The Taut wire solution is designed to fully integrate with the Electronic Fence and Electric Fence ranges, enabling a combination of all three solutions to be used on a single site.
The data line controlling the system works with our without third party control solutions, systems such as Europlex 3GS can be easily used for control if required but are not essential as the system incorporates its own high security data line or ring.
PC control of the Taut Wire is available for on or off site operation, and the client can specify a front end solution for control rooms such as Cortech if required.
