Copyright 1995 and 2012 Southwest Microwave, Inc. All rights Reserved. FCC Notice MicroWave 330 is classified as a field disturbance sensor. This device complies with FCC Rules Part 15.245. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: This device may not cause harmful interference and this device must accept interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Notice: changes or modifications not expressly approved by Southwest Microwave, Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. RoHS Compliant Radiation Safety The allowable standard minimum of safe radiation exposure level in the United States as established by the American National Standards Institute is 10mW/cm 2 . There is currently a proposal to drop this limit to 1mW/cm 2 . The average Southwest Microwave sensor surface radiation level (when in operation) is approximately.0186mW/cm 2 or 1/50 of the proposed lower standard. This level rapidly dissipates at distances from the unit. For example, at one meter, the figure reduces to .0012mW/cm 2 or 1/800 of the proposed level. Copyright Southwest Microwave, Inc.

Digital Microwave link intrePiD™ Microwave 330 is a digital microwave field disturbance sen- sor providing protection for open areas, gates, entr yways, wall and rooftop applications. Based on Southwest Microwave’s field-proven microwave detection technology, it provides volumetric detection of human intruders with minimal environmental nuisance alarms. advanced digital signal pro- cessing (DSP) allows continuous monitoring of intrusion alarm and tamper switch status, received signal strength and detection parameters. Micro w ave 330 operates at k-band frequencies, achieving superior per- formance to X-band sensors. Because k-band is 2.5 times higher than X- band, the multipath signal generated by an intruder is more focused, and detection of slow-moving intruders is correspondingly better. at k-band frequency, the unit also has low susceptibility to outside inter ference from air/seaport radar or other microwave systems. a ntenna beam width is approximately 3.5 degrees in the horizontal and vertical planes for long range operation and superior beam control within narrow corridors. a dvanced receiver design increases detection prob- ability by alarming on partial or complete beam interruption, increase / decrease in signal level or jamming by other transmitters. automatic gain control (agc) compensates for var ying site or weather conditions. Six field-selectable modulation channels with narrow band filtering al- low multiple Micro w ave 330’s to operate simultaneously without mutual inter ference, and permit synchronous use with Southwest Microwave’s microwave transceivers. Units can also be stacked for the ultimate in detection per formance. as part of the new-generation intrePiD™ family, Microwave 330 net- works seamlessly with MicroPoint™ ii fence detection sensor and Micro t rack™ ii buried cable detection sensor using a common, open architecture communications protocol.

Micro wave 330 will alarm on average sized humans walking, running or crawling on hands and knees through the pattern. field adjustments can provide alarm on larger or smaller targets, depending on the specific application. the sur face mounted electronics and parabolic antenna of Microwave 330 are mounted on a rugged metal base-plate and covered by a molded aBS radome for all weather operation.
