Capture Q20-W

Capture Q20-W is a wireless Grade 2 quad PIR motion detector for professional upgrades, takeovers and clean installations.

It is designed for sites where a stronger PIR option is needed, but the building makes cabling the ideal position difficult. That makes it useful for existing homes, offices, retail spaces and light commercial interiors where finish and placement both matter.

With quad element pyro sensing, Ricochet wireless mesh technology and Grade 2 certification, it gives installers a wireless route for stable internal detection.

Key Details:

  • Coverage: 15m by 90 degree volumetric coverage

Capture Q20-W

Quad PIR with wireless placement freedom

Capture Q20-W is useful where the installer wants quad PIR detection but does not want the cable route to decide the detector position.

This matters on retrofits, extensions and finished interiors. The right detector location may be clean from a detection point of view, but painful from a wiring point of view. Q20-W helps solve that gap.

A stronger wireless PIR option

Q20-W gives installers a step up from basic wireless PIR detection.

It is useful in standard internal spaces where a quad element PIR is preferred, but where dual technology is not necessary. That makes it a practical choice for premium residential upgrades, offices and light commercial sites with suitable environments.

Wireless does not fix bad positioning

Ricochet wireless mesh technology gives installers more placement flexibility, but detector basics still apply.

Avoid aiming at heat sources, unstable air movement and poor crossing patterns. A wireless detector still needs to be mounted where it can perform properly.

When Capture Q20-W makes sense

Capture Q20-W is the right choice when the site needs wireless quad PIR detection.

If the area is smaller and straightforward, Capture P15-W may be enough. If the space is more challenging, Capture D20-W may be a better fit. If the area has pets, Capture PET-W should be considered.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I choose Capture Q20-W?

Choose Capture Q20-W when the site needs wireless PIR detection with quad element sensing, especially on upgrades where cabling the best detector position would be disruptive.

How is Capture Q20-W different from Capture P15-W?

Capture Q20-W uses a quad element pyro, while Capture P15-W uses a dual element pyro. Q20-W is the stronger PIR option where the installer wants more confidence in the detection layer.

Does Ricochet wireless mesh technology improve the installation?

It helps because the detector position can be chosen around detection performance rather than cable access. That said, wireless signal checks and correct placement are still essential.

Is Capture Q20-W suitable for busy commercial spaces?

Yes, where the environment suits PIR detection and the detector can be positioned correctly. For more challenging areas, Capture D20-W may be the stronger option.

What should I use for narrow approach routes?

Use a curtain detector such as Capture C15 or Capture C15-W when the aim is to protect a defined doorway, window line or narrow route rather than a full room.
