Magal Security Systems - Perimeter Intrusion Detection Systems

With more than a 40% market share, the Magal Group is the world’s leading supplier of outdoor perimeter intrusion detection systems. It provides a variety of technologies that detect intruders using sensors in the outdoor environment at the perimeter limits or around sensitive, high-risk areas of airports. The sensors protect many airports around the world, providing critical time for guard forces, law enforcement, emergency crews, control towers, ground crew and aircraft crews to react.

Magal understands the challenges of making security systems sensors operate under extreme weather conditions, providing the lowest possible number of false and nuisance alarms while maintaining a very high probability of detection, implementing protection in a way that is difficult, if not impossible, to defeat, and providing airport operators and airlines with protection without interfering with operations.

Magal’s success is based on the lessons learned from more than 30 years of deploying these systems in more than 75 countries worldwide, in every conceivable climatic condition. The systems that we offer to airport and aviation clients have already been proven time and again in security applications as varied as borders, nuclear facilities, military bases, communications centers, maximum security prisons, estate residences, utilities and commercial facilities.

Magal Group's main products can be divided into three groups: Perimeter Intrusion Detection Systems, Video Motion Detection Systems and Security Management Systems (SMS).

BARRIER SENSORS

Barrier sensors are a two-in-one security option. They provide both a physical barrier to intrusion and a sensor for detection. Taut-wire systems are an example of barrier sensors that offer an almost zero False Alarm Rate (FAR) and unsurpassed Probability of Detection (Pd). These systems have virtually no environmental limitations and are able to provide reliable service for many years:

• DTR-2000 Taut Wire Perimeter Intrusion Detection System
• Yael-15 Taut Wire Perimeter Intrusion Detection System
• Inno-Fence - A decorative innocent-looking Detection System
• Magbar - Intrusion Detection Grid

VOLUMETRIC SENSORS

Volumetric sensors generate an invisible detection field, which locates intruders moving through that field. As the field of detection is invisible, these sensors are very difficult to evade. Immune to most environmental conditions, these sensors are often used in sterile zones and may be totally covert:

• Perimitrax -Buried Cable Intrusion Detection Sensors
• Intelli-Field - Electrostatic Field Disturbance Sensors
• Intelli-Wave - Microwave Protection System
• TMPS - Microwave Portable Sensors

FENCE-MOUNTED SENSORS

Fence and wall-associated sensors are above-ground detection sensors that are attached to an existing fence or wall. They detect intrusion when an intruder disturbs the detection field or when vibration due to cutting or climbing on a metal fabric fence triggers an alarm:

• Intelli-Flex - Microphonic Cable Fence Disturbance Sensors
• IntelliFiber – Fiber Optic Cable Fence Disturbance Sensors
• Barricade 500 - Vibration Detection System

VIDEO MOTION DETECTION SYSTEMS

The DTS-1000 video motion detection system transforms the viewing-only ability of CCTV cameras into a tracking and alarm system by analyzing the video output signal to create the detection field. Video monitoring also provides additional information to help identify the source of an alarm and determine whether or not it is valid.

SECURITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

Magal Group has branched out into both other outdoor security systems, as well as indoor ones, and is now able to offer total and comprehensive Turnkey Security Projects, which include all stages; starting with threat analysis, choice of hardware and software, and operators training. All systems selected by Magal Group with the approval of the Security Personnel of the customer are integrated into Magal's Security Management System (SMS) - MagNet. Magal Group will assure that the systems integrate with one another, perform to specifications, and are best suited to the client's needs and wishes.
