Optex FLX-A-DAM FlipX Lens Advanced Grade 3 Indoor Hardwired Dual-Tech Combo AM PIR + Microwave Motion Detector with Rotatable Lens – Anti-Masking – 85° Wide Angle Coverage With 15m Range OR 5° Narrow Angle Coverage with 24m Range (PIR Only)
Key Features :-
- Flip Lens – Selectable wide & narrow area with one lens. By turning the lens upside down, the shape of detection area can be changed from WIDE to NARROW
- Easily Viewable LED Color
- Human-Catch Element – The new element size has been designed to create proper detection areas and optimize detection sensitivity
- Refined Spherical Lens
- 180 Degree Cover Lock
- SMDA Logic – By analyzing detection patterns and environmental information, SMDA improves immunity against various noise factors such as climate changes and vegetation sways, and can distinguish between the cause of nuisance false alarms and genuine intrusions
- Double Protection Anti-Masking – FlipX has IR Anti-masking function generating a trouble signal when detector is masked
- Down Zone Switch – Downzone detection area is selectable “ON” or “OFF”
- EOL Resistor Socket

Superior detection performance
The FlipX Advanced models feature the highest catch performance amongst all the FlipX sensors making them the ideal choice for high-risk sites. With 80 detection zones and a longer detection range (up to 24meters), the Advanced the perfect choice for a variety of high-security indoor applications, including banks, high-value retail stores, warehouses and high-end residential. Advanced models feature double conductive shielding to filter out light disturbance and RFI, and also a ‘super high sensitivity’ setting for increased precision, along with a downzone detection area to detect below the sensor meaning almost nothing will get past the Advanced.
Dual technology
The FLX-A-DAM is a dual technology sensor with both microwave and PIR detection and full antimasking features. The dual technology adds another layer of reliability and precision the FlipX Advanced as an alarm will only be activated when both the microwave and infrared layers are triggered. What really makes our dual technology models stand out is the unrivaled quality of our bespoke component, the Tough MOD which has specifically been developed to prevent corrosion from condensation, humidity and other damage due to lights or temperature changes.
Active infrared antimasking
With high-security applications in mind, the FlipX Advanced comes with an Infrared anti-masking function which generates a trouble signal when the detector is masked. It has two independent antimasking functions, one on the lens surface and one on the microwave so should one of them be covered, it will generate an alarm.

Super high sensitivity
For increased performance and precision, the Advanced Models offer a step up from the usual sensitivity settings to increase detection performance. Usually, our sensors can come with low, medium or high sensitivity only but to make this product even more suitable for high risk places we have incorporated “super high sensitivity”, which when set, enables the sensors to maintain stable and highly reliable detection even when the temperature difference between the human and the environment is very small.

Easy Installation
Like all FlipX models, the Advanced aims to facilitate the installation process as much as possible to save you time and hassle. One of its key features is an easily viewable multi-colour LED indicator. The 180-degree cover lock is also incredibly easy to remove within seconds. Unique to the FlipX Advanced is the removable terminal block for easy and quick wiring and the EOL resistor socket for simple installation. All FlipX models also have a flexible mounting height of 2-3 meters so they can easily blend into interiors with higher ceilings.
