The Bravo 5GB is a ceiling mount motion and glassbreak detector in one housing designed to provide reliable protection for residential and commercial applications. The Bravo 5GB uses a special Fresnel lens made for 360° detection in conjunction with a quad element PIR sensor optimized for uniform detection all around its field of view. Special attention is given to false alarm immunity against RF, static, electrical transient to ensure trouble free operation for many years. The Bravo 5GB is integrated with an advanced microprocessor based glassbreak sensor, designed to detect the sounds produced by the shattering of framed glass. The glassbreak detection scheme used on Bravo 5GB is a result of an extensive research program, designed to study the properties of glass as well as the properties of sounds produced by the shattering of framed glass. The Bravo 5GB offers a benefit of having motion and glassbreak detectors in one housing for many applications where both protections are required in the same room.

Great motion detector ... you definitely can't slow walk this model and get by it like the DSC BV600 Dual PIR. No blinds spot in coverage either (mounted on ceiling in our farm shop). I've yet to successfully trip the glass break sensor but I have a DSC AFT-100 Glass Break Tester coming in soon for that so I'll soon know if it works or not (the traditional breaking glass bottles in a box with a rock won't set it off unlike the DSC Acuity AC100). Might add that is unit is a 4-wire detector and that you wire the motion sensor in series with the glass break sensor (instruction are a little vague when it comes to actually wiring up the glass break sensor so I'm guessing this is correct (using the Normally Closed (NC)).

I wasn't sure if the glass break was going to work, but it does! The range on the motion sensor is a bit limited on an 8' tall ceiling. I think it only has about 10' radius.

easy to install- Very clean looking- Looks better than a smoke detector, and little smaller. I didn't mount it in a box, can mount directly to the ceiling. Note- you must step parallel to the unit to set it off, walking directly at it may not set it off. I've observed at 9' mounting hight covers about 25'-30'

Only thing I did not like was that I used a round box with drywall wings and the sensor did not cover the outer lip of the box.
