TAKEX launches new vape and smoking sensor

TAKEX EUROPE LTD, a leading manufacturer of security sensing technologies, has launched VS-1000E, a vape and smoking sensor designed to address the growing problem of vaping in schools, restrooms and other similar environments.

Leveraging a high-sensitivity particle sensor and advanced detection algorithms, VS-1000E will adapt to changing environmental conditions to quickly and accurately identify vaping and smoking activities.

To proactively deter vaping and smoking, the sensor’s integrated sounder emits a localised audible alert along with an LED notification light, providing a clear and urgent warning for swift action.

Engineered for rapid deployment, an innovative twist-lock base and tool-less, push-fit terminals enable effortless installation in seconds, whether securing to a ceiling or wall.

And unlike many vape sensors, VS-1000E operates independently without the need for app-based management, offering seamless, license-free operation.

Key features include:

• Adjustable detection sensitivity: Offers standard and low sensitivity settings to accommodate various application needs

• Configurable alarm output: Allows selection between normally closed (NC) and normally open (NO) relay outputs, providing flexibility in integration with existing alarm systems

• Integrated audio-visual alerts: Equipped with a built-in sounder and LED indicator to provide immediate local notifications upon detection

• Tamper-resistant design: Features a secure cover locking mechanism to prevent unauthorised access or tampering

• Versatile mounting options: Suitable for both ceiling and wall installations, ensuring seamless integration into any environment

• Self-Diagnosis Functionality: Continuously monitors its own operation and triggers an alarm output and LED indication in case of voltage abnormalities or module failures

• Simple installation: Engineered for rapid deployment with an innovative twist-lock base and tool-less, push-fit terminals, enabling effortless installation in seconds

“A commitment to advancing sensing solutions”

“The introduction of our VS-1000E vape sensor underscores TAKEX’s commitment to advancing innovative sensing solutions,” said John Angell, Business Manager at TAKEX Europe.

“By providing rapid detection and immediate deterrence of vaping and smoking, VS-1000E empowers facility managers and security professionals to help protect public spaces and promote a healthier, safer environment.”
