Bosch RADION Wireless Glass Break Detector Square RFGB

SKU: RFGB
Description

The Bosch RFGB is a RADION wireless glass break detector for Bosch Solution 3000 and 6000 alarm systems. It listens for the specific sound and pressure waves of breaking glass to protect windows and glass doors, and because it is wireless there is no cable to run to the sensor. It is a wireless device and needs a Bosch RADION wireless receiver.

01Overview

What the RFGB is

The Bosch RFGB is the RADION wireless glass break detector used to protect windows and glass doors on a Bosch Solution 3000 or 6000, without running cable to the sensor. It guards the perimeter, so an intruder is detected at the glass before they are inside.

It uses dual acoustic detection: when something strikes glass, the pane first emits a low-frequency pressure (flex) wave, and only if it shatters does it emit a high-frequency audio signal. The detector listens for the flex wave first and the audio second, which rejects everyday sounds such as a bell or a dropped object that produce audio but no flex wave. An omni-directional microphone gives 360-degree coverage and detects breaking plate, tempered, wired and laminated glass up to 6.4mm thick, even through blinds or lightweight drapes.

The RFGB runs on one CR123A lithium battery for up to five years and is supervised for low battery, cover tamper and removal from its mount. It is a wireless device and is not standalone: it needs a Bosch RADION receiver, the B810 on a Solution 3000 or the RFRC-STR2 on a Solution 6000. Mount it indoors on the opposite wall or ceiling within clear view of the glass, at least 1.2m from the glass and ideally within 6m, in a room no smaller than 3m x 3m. Glass break detectors are a perimeter layer and work best alongside motion detectors.

04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use the RFGB

Catches break-ins at the glass

Perimeter detection alerts you when a window or glass door is broken, before an intruder is inside the room.

Fewer false alarms

Dual acoustic detection needs both the pressure wave and the audio of breaking glass, so everyday noises do not trip it.

Wireless and long battery life

No cable to the sensor and up to five years from one CR123A battery, with low-battery supervision.

Backed locally

Supplied by an authorised Bosch dealer with a 3-year warranty and Australia-wide support.

05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Living areas with large windows

Protect a lounge or sunroom with wide glazing, where motion detection alone may react too late.

Shopfronts and glass doors

Cover glass entries and display windows in homes and small businesses.

Hard-to-cable rooms

Add perimeter protection to upstairs or finished rooms without running wire back to the panel.

Layered protection

Combine with motion detectors so the perimeter and the interior are both covered.

06Setup

Installation & setup

  1. What it is

    A RADION wireless glass break detector. It is not standalone and needs a Bosch RADION receiver: the B810 on a Solution 3000 or the RFRC-STR2 on a Solution 6000.

  2. Where to mount

    Indoors, on the opposite wall or the ceiling with clear line of sight to the glass, at least 1.2m from the glass and ideally within 6m. Use a room of at least 3m x 3m.

  3. Where not to mount

    Avoid corners, the same wall as the glass, humid rooms, rooms with heavy drapes or shutters, and rooms with loud equipment or constant noise.

  4. Power and setup

    In Australia a Bosch alarm should be installed by a licensed security installer, who wires the device to the panel, programs it and tests the system. The installer enrols the detector to the RADION receiver, sets sensitivity and walk-tests it; the CR123A battery lasts up to five years.

08Questions

Frequently asked about the RFGB

Q.01

Does the RFGB work on its own?

No. It is a wireless detector and needs a Bosch RADION receiver: the B810 on a Solution 3000 or the RFRC-STR2 on a Solution 6000.
Q.02

How does it avoid false alarms?

It uses dual acoustic detection, listening for the low-frequency pressure (flex) wave first and the high-frequency audio second, so sounds that produce audio but no flex wave do not trip it.
Q.03

What glass does it protect?

Plate, tempered, wired and laminated glass up to 6.4mm thick, even through blinds or lightweight drapes.
Q.04

Where should it be mounted?

Indoors on the opposite wall or the ceiling with clear line of sight to the glass, at least 1.2m away and ideally within 6m, in a room of at least 3m x 3m.
Q.05

Where should it not be mounted?

Avoid corners, the same wall as the glass, humid rooms, rooms with heavy drapes or shutters, and rooms with loud equipment or constant noise.
Q.06

What battery does it use and how long does it last?

One CR123A lithium battery, with up to five years of life and low-battery supervision.
Q.07

Should I use it instead of motion detectors?

Glass break is a perimeter layer and works best alongside motion detectors, which cover movement inside the room.
Q.08

Who installs it?

A licensed installer enrols it to the RADION receiver, sets sensitivity and walk-tests it.
