Hard-wired High Security Networked IR Barrier
Approved by the USAF for Protection Level 1 Nuclear & Below
MODULARITY : Two different housings to adapt to different site configurations
INNOVATION : ZONING function, TCP/IP network for remote set-up and maintenance
ADAPTABILITY : Single or double face; Single or dual direction; Adaptable column heights
Overview
The MAXIRIS 3100 infrared barriers deliver the highest level of performance in invisible/virtual fence systems from PROTECH. For perimeters longer than .6 miles (or 1 km), the MAXIRIS 3100 columns can be directly connected to a TCP/IP network or RS485 bus via the MAXIBUS Universal Hub.
The MAXIRIS ZONING function enables up to three virtual detection zones per barrier/ system that can be configured accordingly, allowing for video verification based on alarms by zone.
Each barrier is self-contained with a multi-lingual HTML server integrated into each column (English, French, Spanish, etc.).
System configuration and maintenance operations can be handled remotely.
MAXIRIS 3100
- Single and double face tower
- High-density beams: up to 14 beams per tower face
- Zoning function: minimum of 4 to maximum of 10 cells per tower
- Zoning function: 4 to 10 cells per tower
The MAXIRIS technology and housing allow it to be installed on a wide variety of sites:
- logistics sites,
- particularly sensitive sites: prisons, nuclear power plants, military sites, etc.
- public places: airports, metros, etc.
- industrial sites, etc.

Ensure barrier is installed on a stable support (not mesh, unstable pole, etc.).
Ensure ground is level to ensure stability of the columns over time. A maximum of 10° elevation will be tolerated between the columns. In elevations above 10°, contact PROTECH’s sales department.
Ensure site is free from vegetation that could cover the beams, regardless of the season / weather.
Check the cleanliness of the covers. Recommended to clean with a soft and damp cloth at least annually.
Infrared technology operates at a wavelength above that of visible light (950nm), which makes the IR beam invisible to the naked eye.
IR beams are transmitted and received by infrared cells – transmitter cells generate and send a pulsed beam to the receiver cells which capture infrared pulses and turn them into electrical signals. When an absence, loss or change in the signal occurs (loss of 95% of the transmitted signal), an intrusion alarm is triggered. To prevent interference of receiver cells by the infrared beams being transmitted, cells are multiplexed.
Multiplexing is a principal whereby infrared pulses are transmitted in a synchronized manner by an optical or wired link between transmitter and receiver columns. This feature optimizes cell alignment (“alignment feedback”). All the PROTECH IR barriers are multiplexed.
