Chain-link fences

LINE_Fence 2

Optical fiber woven into the mesh

LINE_Fence 2 turns your fence into a sensor. The optical fiber is woven through the openings of the chain-link mesh, and the analyzer raises an alarm as soon as movement of the mesh reaches the fiber.

How it works

The operating principle.

When someone pushes, pulls or cuts the mesh, its wires exert small forces on the optical fiber. The analyzer measures the change in light and raises the alarm.

The fiber doesn’t need to be touched directly. It is enough for the movement of the mesh to act on it. That is what sets the technique apart from vibration sensors, which also react to sounds from a distance.

The level of protection is set in the site study by the number of fiber lines. For a 2 m fence: one line for basic monitoring, two for the standard application, three or four for higher requirements. There is no upper limit.

Where it fits

Typical applications

  • Solar parks
  • Industrial sites and warehouses
  • Water and fuel tanks
  • Mobile telecom sites
  • Remote sites without CCTV
Benefits

What you get with LINE_Fence 2.

01

Alert before entry

The alarm is raised while the intruder is still on the fence.

02

In all weather

Detection relies on mechanical disturbance of the fiber, not on sound or vibration from a distance. The fiber carries no current and is immune to electromagnetic fields.

03

Follows the terrain

The fiber follows slopes, corners and curves in the fence without extra analyzers.

04

Takes up no space

Mounted on the existing mesh. No security strip is needed inside the property.

05

Chain expansion

The fiber returns to the same analyzer or continues to the next. Analyzers are not electrically connected to each other.

06

Easy repair

No connectors, no expensive instruments. The fiber is cut with the tool and goes straight into the device.

Combine

In a solar park, LINE_Fence 2 guards the perimeter and INFI_Sense 2 guards the panels. SUB_Sense 2 covers gates and openings where there is no mesh.

Important information. The performance of every system depends on the fence or structure it is fitted to, the site study, installation and maintenance. The system detects mechanical disturbance of the sensing assembly. Attempts that do not disturb it may not be detected. For higher requirements we recommend combining it with other measures, such as cameras or a second line of detection.
