Paradox 476PET Wired Analog PIR Motion Detector – Pet-Friendly Security

The Paradox 476PET is a wired, analog, single-optic passive infrared (PIR) motion detector designed to provide reliable indoor security while ignoring pets. It is ideal for homes and businesses with animals, securing spaces without triggering false alarms.

Pet Immunity & Detection

This motion detector features pet immunity for animals up to 18kg (40lbs). It has a detection range of 11m x 11m, with center beams reaching up to 15m. The 88.5° viewing angle ensures broad coverage while maintaining accuracy.

Advanced Sensor Technology

• Patented Auto Pulse Signal Processing (APSP): Differentiates between human intrusion and false alarms by automatically adjusting to signal strength.

• Automatic Temperature Compensation: Maintains consistent detection as ambient temperature changes.

• EMI/RFI Protection: A large metal shield protects against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference.

• Dual Element Sensor: Improves detection accuracy and reliability.

• Adjustable Sensitivity: Jumper settings allow “Slow” or “Fast” mode for tailored detection based on environment and pet activity.

Installation Guidelines

• Recommended Height: 2.1m (7ft) for optimal pet immunity.

• Mounting Options: Surface or corner mount with optional SB469 Swivel-Mount Bracket.

• Placement Tips: Avoid aiming at stairways, heaters, or furniture above 0.9m that pets could climb on.

Power & Performance

The Paradox 476PET operates on 9–16VDC, consuming 15–31mA. Its solid-state relay (Form A, Normally Closed) ensures fast, reliable alarm triggering. The detector works efficiently in temperatures from -20°C to +50°C (-4°F to 122°F).

The Paradox 476PET PIR Motion Detector is a trusted choice for wired analog alarm systems, providing accurate, pet-friendly security for homes and small businesses. For environments with larger animals, upgrading to the Paradox DG75 is recommended for immunity up to 40kg.
