Dexter Detectors for Security/Detection

Use Dexter detectors for threat sensors that stand up to hostile environments.

Need to create the best motion sensor or motion detector, fire sensor or fire detector, smoke sensor or smoke detector? You’ve come to the right place. Dexter sensor technologies reduce threat of combat on land, sea, and air. Our detectors’ industry-leading advantages – low cost, high sensitivity, low energy consumption, and long life – also make them the perfect motion sensor for home, office, or plant floor.

Dexter thin-film and silicon detectors can target precise threats, whether defined by movement, temperature, or body mass. Intensive MIL-STD-883H testing performed by Trialon Corporation, an independent testing facility, confirm that our silicon-based temperature sensor detectors meet the rugged requirements of 1,000G’s for mechanical shock and 30G’s in random vibration.
