SentryHound-Pro™ improvements include enhanced LED visual alerts that are brighter than the previous model with an improved viewing angle for security personnel. The new sensor poles fold in half for easy storage and transport using a precision-machined, quick-lock system and a more stable base. The entire sensor pole now fits into a single Pelican® model 1720 case with integrated wheels for easy transport anywhere. Overall weight is 3 lbs. lighter than the original SentryHound-Pro. A handy, ferrous noise floor monitoring feature has also been added to allow for easy and informed threshold adjustments in any environment.
“With nearly 1000 original systems shipped, we’ve received great feedback from customers and have responded with a re-engineered SentryHound-Pro that retains all the great features from the original and adds many new improvements that customers demand,” says Scott Schober, CEO of BVS.
SentryHound-Pro™ is a single or dual pole solution used to detect concealed PEDs (Personal Electronic Devices) such as cell phones, earbuds, tablets and even guns and knives using ultra-sensitive ferrous detection without triggering on more common personal items such as belt buckles, jewelry or medical implants that can falsely trigger standard metal detectors. The sensor poles contain 4 distinct ferromagnetic detection zones each for a non-invasive, full body scan of all foot traffic.
