The ERA line of products by Safeguard Supply is designed for larger facilities such as warehouses, shops, stores, etc. The features that really make the ERA line shine are the wireless range of up to 4,000 ft., its ability to expand with multiple receivers and transmitters, and the 12VDC outputs on the back of the receiver that provides the ability to add bright strobe lights, loud sirens, buzzers, and more.
All products in this category of wireless doorbell & entrance alert products are compatible with one another. Each receiver can work with up to 12 different transmitters (motion sensor, push button, & door contact.) There is no limit to the number of receivers that work with each transmitter.
This provides you with the ability for widespread coverage throughout your facility. For example, you can add a push button to the front door for deliveries or customers, a motion sensor over doors that tend to stay open, and multiple receivers throughout different areas of your location.
If you shop on Amazon or your local box store retailer, you will see a limited number of wireless doorbells and wireless entry chimes. You would be hard-pressed to find a product with a range of over 500 ft. This may seem like enough range, but it is essential to consider any published wireless range is an “up to range,” which is merely a mathematical calculation based on components in the product.
You will never get the published range for any wireless product unless there are zero obstacles and environmental factors between the sensor and receiver. For example, most commercial locations will have a metal door or maybe concrete or brick on the exterior wall. Penetrating that material could reduce the signal by up to 40%. Starting at 1,000 ft., you are already down to 400 ft., assuming no other interference exists. Depending on the wall material, most interior doors will reduce the signal by 20-30%. Simply doing the math, you can quickly see how we can guarantee our products. A range of 4,000 ft. gives you the extra strength you need.
In addition to the signal strength, the Safeguard Supply line of ERA products has features specifically designed for business use. For example, each ERA receiver can work with up to 12 different sensors/transmitters, and there is no limit to the number of receivers a transmitter can work with. Other product features make them ideal for business use.
The ERA-DCRX features 4 x 12V DC outputs that allow you to connect external devices such as strobe lights, sirens, fire alarm bells, and more. The receiver also features a c-form relay for integration to 3rd party devices.
If you need an entrance alert, door chime, driveway sensor, or other alerting device, look no further than the ERA series by Safeguard Supply!
