Safeguard Supply ERA-PRXPG Indoor Motion Sensor with Strobe Light Receiver

Indoor Motion Sensor Kit with Flashing Strobe Receiver

The ERA-PRXPG indoor motion sensor kit combines two components from the Safeguard Supply ERA Series: the ERA-PIR motion sensor transmitter and the ERA-RXPG plug-in door chime receiver with strobe. Together they form an indoor motion alert system that watches for people entering a monitored area and signals staff with sound and light from up to 4,000 feet away in line-of-sight conditions. This makes the kit well suited for retail doors, back hallways, stockroom entrances, and other interior points where a clear motion alert is needed.

The ERA-PIR is mounted in the area to be monitored and is powered by a 9V battery. The ERA-RXPG plugs into a standard wall outlet and can be configured to use sound only, strobe only, or sound and strobe together. When motion is detected, the receiver plays the selected tone and, if enabled, flashes its strobe for a set period, providing a visual alert that is easy to see even in noisy environments.

ERA-PIR Indoor Motion Sensor Transmitter

The ERA-PIR is a passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor designed primarily for indoor use. It detects the combination of heat and movement as people walk through its field of view. When a person enters the monitored zone, the ERA-PIR sends a wireless radio signal to the paired ERA receiver. With a transmission range rated up to 4,000 feet in line-of-sight conditions, the sensor can be installed in one part of a building while the receiver is located in another, as long as the overall site layout is within that range.

The monitoring zone of the ERA-PIR is adjustable so the coverage width and depth can be tuned to match the doorway, hallway, or area being protected. The sensor is typically mounted above or beside an entrance, aimed so that people cross through the detection pattern rather than walking directly toward or away from it. This orientation helps the PIR detect motion more consistently and reduces missed activations.

• Detection method: indoor passive infrared sensing for people moving through the monitored area.
• Wireless range: up to 4,000 ft transmission distance to compatible ERA receivers under ideal conditions.
• Power source: 9V alkaline battery.
• Typical coverage: adjustable monitoring zone suitable for standard doorways and interior passages.
• Mounting options: wall or ceiling mounting near the area to be monitored.
• Compatibility: works with all ERA Series receivers, including ERA-RXPG.

Indoor Motion Sensor Placement and Use

In a typical installation, the ERA-PIR is positioned near an interior doorway, over a store entrance, or along a corridor where people regularly pass. Mounting height is chosen so the sensor has a clear view of the area without being blocked by fixtures or signage. The field of view can be narrowed or widened using the sensor’s adjustable settings so that only the intended path of travel is monitored.

The sensor should be installed away from HVAC vents, rapidly moving air, and direct sunlight where possible, since abrupt temperature changes can affect PIR operation. Once mounted, the installer walks through the monitored zone several times to confirm that the sensor triggers consistently and that the receiver responds with the desired tone and strobe behavior.

• Typical mounting locations: over entry doors, above interior hallway openings, or on walls near aisles.
• Detection orientation: aim across the walking path for better recognition of movement.
• Environmental considerations: avoid pointing directly at large windows, heaters, or fans when possible.

ERA-RXPG Plug-In Receiver with Flashing Strobe

The ERA-RXPG is a plug-in wireless receiver that provides both audible and visual notification when an ERA transmitter such as the ERA-PIR is activated. It plugs into a standard 120V wall outlet and includes an integrated strobe light on the front of the housing. When the motion sensor sends a signal, the receiver can play one of its available chime tones, flash the strobe, or do both at the same time depending on how it is configured.

The receiver offers three operating modes: sound only, strobe only, and sound plus strobe. Twelve different melodies are available, and four volume levels allow the alert to be adjusted from a lower volume up to a loud setting suitable for many commercial spaces. The strobe typically flashes for several seconds on activation, providing a clear visual cue for locations where it may be hard to hear the chime or where a visual signal is required.

• Power: plugs directly into a standard 120V outlet.
• Operating modes: sound only, strobe only, or sound and strobe together.
• Melodies: 12 selectable chime tones.
• Volume control: four adjustable levels up to approximately 95 dB at the highest setting.
• Visual alert: built-in flashing strobe light on the front of the receiver.
• Wireless range: up to 4,000 ft line-of-sight from compatible ERA transmitters.
• Receiver capacity: can be programmed with up to 12 different ERA transmitters, each with its own melody if desired.
• Dimensions: roughly 4.75″ H x 2.75″ W x 1.5″ D.

How the ERA-PRXPG Motion Alert Kit Operates

In use, the ERA-PIR monitors the selected indoor area, while the ERA-RXPG is placed anywhere within range that has an available wall outlet—commonly near a service counter, office desk, or back room. When someone enters the sensor’s detection zone, the ERA-PIR transmits a signal that causes the receiver to trigger. Based on the selected mode, the receiver will sound a chime, flash its strobe, or do both.

Because the ERA-RXPG can learn up to 12 transmitters, the same receiver can handle alerts from additional sensors beyond the ERA-PIR. For example, separate motion sensors could be placed at multiple entrances, or door contact transmitters could be added. Each transmitter can use a different melody, making it possible to tell which door or area caused the alert by listening to the tone and watching the strobe.

• Alert path: motion detected by ERA-PIR triggers sound and/or strobe at the ERA-RXPG.
• Placement flexibility: receiver can be plugged into any indoor outlet within wireless range.
• Multi-zone capability: additional ERA transmitters can be added and assigned different tones.

ERA Series Compatibility and Expansion

Both the ERA-PIR and ERA-RXPG belong to the Safeguard Supply ERA Series, which means they are part of a broader family of wireless alert devices. The ERA-PIR can transmit to other ERA receivers in addition to the ERA-RXPG, while the ERA-RXPG can receive signals from other ERA transmitters such as push buttons, door contacts, and driveway sensors. This makes the ERA-PRXPG kit a starting point for larger systems that may include both indoor and outdoor alerts.

There is no fixed limit to the number of ERA-RXPG or other ERA receivers that can listen to a given ERA-PIR sensor, so a single motion sensor can be used to trigger alerts in multiple rooms by adding additional receivers as needed.

• Series: part of the Safeguard Supply ERA long-range wireless platform.
• Compatible transmitters: ERA-PIR plus other ERA Series sensors and push buttons.
• Compatible receivers: ERA-RXPG and other ERA receivers if added to the system.
