Honeywell 5853 Wireless Glassbreak — Specs & Hong Kong Installation
Honeywell 5853 wireless acoustic glass-break detector for Hong Kong living rooms, meeting rooms, and glass shopfronts.
Best for: Glazed rooms / shop fronts
Product overview
The 5853 covers multiple panes from one wireless device by analysing flex and shatter frequencies. Swan CCTV uses it where putting a contact on every window is impractical — full-height glazing, conference rooms, and street-level retail glass.
Walk-test mode is used during commissioning so we can confirm catch performance without breaking glass. It shares the same 5800 receiver as 5816 contacts and 5800PIR detectors.
