Bosch Security Systems completes its portfolio of intrusion alarm systems for residential and small to medium commercial applications with the launch of two new members of the AMAX family of control panels. This launch is further supported by the introduction of RADION, a new family of wireless peripherals. Private households as well as owners of SMBs (Small Medium Businesses) now have the flexibility to choose between wireless and wired detectors, thus protecting their assets with an individually configurable security solution.

Intrusion alarm systems for every purpose
Introduced in 2013, AMAX 4000 is now backed by two new intrusion control panels – AMAX 3000 and AMAX 2100. Together, the three solutions cover a three-step application range: AMAX 2100 is suitable for small applications with a maximum of eight zones, AMAX 3000 is designed for facilities where 32 zones are required, and AMAX 4000 covers larger properties with up to 64 zones, for instance a medical center with several individual practices in the building. AMAX 3000 and 4000 can additionally be operated in hybrid mode, connecting wired detectors, such as Bosch Blue Line Gen2 Series, as well as wireless peripherals from the new RADION family. The compact AMAX 2100, running wired detectors only, completes the portfolio.

The new RADION wireless family includes motion detectors, surface and recessed mount door and window contacts, universal transmitter, keyfobs and smoke detector. This makes it suitable for new installations, as well as for use in existing installations thanks to compatibility with existing “DSRF” wireless systems and legacy control panels from Bosch. Furthermore, the RADION family offers another special feature: by using up to eight repeaters even remotely located detectors can be integrated in the AMAX alarm system, expanding system range up to 1,350 meters. In addition to numerous mechanical design features to improve the ease and reliability of installation, all RADION peripherals can be automatically enrolled within the intrusion system.

New RADION wireless range from Bosch: The new RADION wireless range comprises 15 different products, including motion detectors, window and other dry contacts, key fobs, and smoke detectors.

“The new AMAX family has a broad application spectrum covering nearly the complete European intrusion control panel market,” says Peter Hupka, product manager AMAX. “Bosch is thus further increasing the level of potential customization solutions, especially with AMAX 3000 and 4000. Their hybrid properties enable utilization of RADION wireless peripherals, reducing or eliminating the need for building work,” he explains further.

All three AMAX intrusion alarm systems, as well as the RADION family, are EN 50131 grade 2 certified. AMAX panels are available in eight language versions to suit diverse application needs. With 90 percent of the standard alarm situations pre-programed, they are also easy to install and operate. Alarm transmission uses a standard telephone landline (PSTN), while modules for additional transmission via IP and GSM/GPRS are available. Further, all AMAX intrusion alarm systems can be remotely controlled with programming software for PC and used for fire detection by integrating smoke detectors.

The complete AMAX and RADION family will be available in Europe, the Middle East and Africa from April 2014 onward.
