Mains Signalling Systems

Running cable around a big building is slow, messy and expensive. Merlin mains signalling uses the wiring you already have.

Merlin is Xtra-Sense's own mains signalling technology. It carries alarms, control signals and sensor readings around a building using the existing mains power wiring. No new cabling, no aerials and no radio licensing. It is built to work reliably over long distances in large, multi-storey, three-phase buildings with plenty of electrical noise.

Large multi-storey and three-phase buildings are exactly where radio struggles and new cabling costs a fortune. Signals need to get from basement to top floor reliably.

The mains is a hard-wired medium and ring-main wiring gives fail-safe circuits. The data path is predictable and not at the mercy of radio interference or reflections, and there are no country to country frequency or licensing headaches.

Xtra-Sense Ltd designs and manufactures its security and safety products in Honiton, Devon, and has been solving awkward security problems since 2000. Call 01404 43366 or email security@xtra-sense.co.uk to talk it through.
