The Honeywell Home 5853 is a wireless glass break detector featuring FlexGuard® technology, which "listens" for both the high-frequency shattering sounds of breaking glass and the low-frequency thud of an object striking the glass. Combined with the FlexCore™ signal processor, it simultaneously analyzes the time, frequency, and amplitude of the sound to distinguish true glass breaks from false alarms — an industry benchmark for perimeter protection.
- FlexGuard® Acoustic Technology: Detects low-frequency impact and high-frequency shattering sounds
- FlexCore™ Processor (ASIC): Processes sound data in parallel, 50% faster, for maximum false alarm reduction
- 25 ft (7.6 m) detection range, no minimum distance — wall or ceiling mount
- 4 selectable sensitivity levels via DIP switches: 25 ft, 15 ft, 10 ft, or 5 ft (7.6 m, 4.6 m, 3 m, or 1.5 m)
- Compatible with plate, tempered, laminated, wired, coated, and sealed insulated glass (2 to 14 mm depending on type)
- 5800 series wireless transmitter (345 MHz): Compatible with LYNX Touch, Lyric, ProSeries, and VISTA panels with 5800 receiver
- LED indication for test mode, alarms, and trouble conditions
- Cover tamper (anti-tamper) and full panel supervision
- Protects multiple windows in one room with a single detector
