HSI Sensing to Feature High Security Sentinel Products at Sensors Expo

CHICKASHA, Okla., March 28, 2019 (Newswire.com) - HSI Sensing, an Oklahoma-based manufacturer of custom reed switch and sensor technology, will be showcasing their complete Sentinel product line at the 2019 ISC West Event in Las Vegas, Nevada April 9-12. 

The HSI Sensing Sentinel line is a group of advanced, high-security entry-point sensors with a UL 634 Level 2 listing. UL 634 is the standard for all switches and connectors used in alarm systems and can be further ranked between High Security Levels 1 and Level 2. Level 2 devices, such as Sentinel, meet the strict standards for SCIF intrusion detection systems for the government intelligence community.

"We are excited to demonstrate our full line of Sentinel products at ISC West,” says Travis Posey, Vice President of Business Development, HSI Sensing. “Our latest addition to the line, the Sentinel Retro, is designed as a drop-in replacement to simplify upgrading outdated technology and seeks to eliminate some of the most common issues that plague the industry, such as false alarms from shock and vibration, and alignment and mounting limitations.”

Sentinel technology utilizes Hall sensors and intelligent algorithms making them resistant to physical, electrical and magnetic tampering.  Advanced engineering has also eliminated alignment issues at install and can accommodate long term door sagging.

“We are re-defining standards for reliability and tamper resistant performance by introducing these new devices designed to monitor the most secure operating areas,” says Posey.

Sentinel products are capable of monitoring highly sensitive areas, including government facilities, prisons, sensitive compartmented information facilities (SCIF) and server rooms, and banks. Sentinel can accomplish all of this in a package that is less than half the size of comparable sensors. 

“Sentinel is ready for use right out-of-the-box,” says Posey. “Each Sentinel sensor comes with the sensor, actuator and mounting hardware so you can be up and running in no time.”

Market use, premium listing, and innovative engineering places the Sentinel line of sensors as one of the most advanced door contact security sensors in the world. Sentinel technology can monitor precise location and strength of all magnetic fields within proximity of the sensor, delivering a 360-degree scope to monitor activity from every angle.

“HSI is run by innovators who strive for continuous improvement,” says Posey. “In just the short time after receiving the initial UL 634 Level 2 listing for Sentinel, we’ve been able to expand the line to develop new and unique products that meet all the needs of the high-security industry.”
