George Risk Industries (G.R.I.) PAA | Pool Access Alarm

The new GRI Pool Access Alarm was designed as an aid in the prevention of unattended access to a pool/spa area by a small child. Monitoring all doors or windows with closed loop or open loop magnetic reed switches, the Pool Access Alarm will sound an alarm should anyone too small to manage the adult pass through feature attempt access to the pool/spa area. For maximum protection all movable openings should be protected in such a manner by the GRI Pool Access Alarm.

The PAA can be operated with an on-board 9 volt lithium battery or with a 12 volt externally supplied DC power source, in which case the battery will perform a back-up function should the externally supplied source fail for any reason. Both power sources have been designed to maintain a minimum sound pressure level of 85db at 10’. Should the battery voltage drop below 8.3 Volts, a low battery mode will be initiated and the unit will beep approximately every 50 seconds. Battery must be replaced at this time.

It is suggested that some type of surge protection, such as the GRI CS-1Current Sensor, be used between the power supply and the PAA.

APPLICATION: The POOL ACCESS ALARM is designed as an aid to detect unsupervised access to a pool and / or spa area by a small child. Monitoring all doors and windows with magnetic reed switches the PAA will sound an alarm should anyone too small to mange the adult pass through feature attempt to access the pool / spa area. When the alarm is sounding, it can only be turned off by pressing the shunt / cancel button. If the door is still open for a predetermined time after the button is pressed, the alarm will sound again and continue until the door is closed and the button pressed. For maximum protection, all movable openings should be protected in such a manner.

NOTE: Nonmetallic outlet box must be compliant to one of the following standards: UL 514C, NFPA 70, or NEMA OS-2.
