Pyronix Pet Tolerant PIR Detector KX10DP

What it Does:

The Pyronix KX10DP is a Pet Tolerant PIR (Passive Infrared) Detector designed to detect movement and intruders while minimizing false alarms caused by pets or small animals. It is part of an intruder alarm system, providing motion detection functionality while ensuring that pets in the home do not trigger unnecessary alarms. This makes it ideal for households with small pets, as it can distinguish between human and pet movements.

  • Pet Tolerant Technology: The key feature of this detector is its ability to ignore pets weighing up to 25 kg (55 lbs), allowing them to move around without triggering an alarm. This makes it a suitable choice for homes with animals while still providing reliable human detection.
  • Motion Detection: Like other PIR detectors, it detects movement by sensing the changes in infrared radiation caused by human body heat moving within its coverage area. The detector then triggers the alarm system when it detects movement that exceeds its predefined sensitivity threshold.

How it Works:

  • PIR Sensor Technology:
    The KX10DP uses Passive Infrared (PIR) sensors to detect changes in infrared energy. When a warm object (such as a human body) moves within the detector's field of view, the sensor detects the heat emitted by the body and triggers the alarm. The sensor is designed to ignore smaller heat sources, such as pets, within its detection zone.

  • Pet Tolerant Detection:
    The KX10DP is equipped with specialized algorithms and a pet-tolerant lens that allows it to distinguish between the size and movement patterns of humans and pets. This prevents pets from activating the alarm while still detecting human intruders. The lens is designed to be sensitive to the temperature and movement associated with human bodies, while less sensitive to the movements of animals.

  • Detection Range:
    The detector typically has a 10-meter detection range with a 110-degree detection angle, making it suitable for medium to large rooms or spaces where intruder detection is needed. Its wide coverage area ensures that it can detect movement across a large area.

  • Sensitivity Adjustment:
    The sensitivity of the KX10DP can often be adjusted to fine-tune the detection response. This allows the user to customize the device for specific environments or to account for environmental factors that might affect detection.


Where to Install:

  • Indoor Installation:
    The KX10DP is designed for indoor use and should be installed in areas where movement detection is needed but where pets are likely to be present. It is ideal for rooms, hallways, and common areas within homes or offices.

  • Optimal Installation Height:
    The recommended installation height is typically around 2.2 to 2.5 meters (7 to 8 feet) above the ground. This height allows the detector to effectively cover the area while minimizing interference from pets walking near the floor.

  • Avoiding Pet-Heavy Areas:
    While the KX10DP can tolerate the presence of pets, it should still be installed in a manner that avoids direct pet interaction or excessive movement within its detection field. Avoid placing the sensor near pet enclosures or areas where pets frequently jump or climb.

  • Coverage Area:
    The KX10DP provides coverage over a 10-meter radius, which is adequate for most indoor spaces, such as living rooms, bedrooms, or corridors. It’s important to ensure that the detection field is clear of obstructions to maximize coverage and avoid any dead zones.


Key Features:

  • Pet Tolerant:
    The primary feature of the KX10DP is its ability to differentiate between pets and humans. It is designed to ignore animals weighing up to 25 kg (55 lbs), ensuring that small pets like dogs and cats do not trigger false alarms.

  • PIR Motion Detection:
    The sensor uses Passive Infrared (PIR) technology to detect human movement based on changes in infrared radiation. When a human moves within the detection zone, the sensor triggers the alarm.

  • 10 Meter Coverage:
    The KX10DP provides an effective 10-meter detection range, suitable for medium-sized rooms or open areas. It offers reliable coverage in areas with large floor space or multiple entry points.

  • Adjustable Sensitivity:
    The detector’s sensitivity can be adjusted to suit the specific environment, helping to minimize the risk of false alarms while ensuring it effectively detects human movement.

  • Compact Design:
    The KX10DP features a compact design, making it easy to install in various locations without being obtrusive. Its sleek appearance blends well with most interiors.

  • Reliability:
    The KX10DP is highly reliable, with a robust design and consistent performance. It is built to withstand typical indoor environments and offer long-lasting operation with minimal maintenance.


Additional Notes:

  • False Alarm Prevention:
    Thanks to its pet-tolerant lens and specialized algorithms, the KX10DP is specifically designed to reduce false alarms caused by pets. However, installation in areas where pets are less likely to interfere with the detector is still recommended.

  • Compatibility:
    The KX10DP is compatible with a range of Pyronix control panels and alarm systems. Be sure to check system compatibility before installation, especially if integrating it into an existing alarm system.

  • Power Supply:
    The KX10DP operates on a wired power supply, providing continuous power for reliable detection. Make sure to check the wiring requirements during installation.


The Pyronix KX10DP Pet Tolerant PIR Detector is an excellent choice for environments with pets, offering reliable motion detection while minimizing the chances of false alarms triggered by animals. Its combination of pet tolerance and PIR technology ensures that human movement is detected accurately, while pets up to 25 kg can move freely without causing unwanted triggers. Ideal for residential or commercial spaces, this detector offers peace of mind for pet owners who need effective security without compromising their pets’ movements.
