Hikvision DS-PDC10AM-VG3 AX Hybrid Series Wired PIR AM Curtain Detector
SKU: DS-PDC10AM-VG3
Description
The Hikvision DS-PDC10AM-VG3 is a slim wired PIR curtain detector for AX Hybrid Pro alarm systems. It casts a narrow vertical curtain of detection along a window or door, raising the alarm the instant someone breaches that line while letting people move freely inside the room behind it.

01Overview
What the DS-PDC10AM-VG3 is
The Hikvision DS-PDC10AM-VG3 is a wired PIR anti-mask curtain detector for the AX Hybrid Pro alarm range. Unlike a wide-angle room PIR, a curtain detector projects a thin, vertical fan of infrared detection - so it can guard the plane of a window or doorway and trigger the moment that line is crossed, while normal movement deeper inside the room is ignored.
Its narrow 5-degree beam reaches 10m when wall-mounted or 6m when ceiling-mounted, across 32 detection zones, and an included L-shaped adapter makes it easy to set on a frame or in a corner. Active IR anti-masking (the AM in the name) watches for any attempt to spray, cover or obstruct the lens and reports it, while digital temperature compensation, sealed optics, creep-zone protection and a 6500lux white-light filter keep detection stable and cut false alarms. Directional detection lets the system distinguish the way a target is moving.
This is a wired device: it gives a normally closed (NC) alarm output with selectable end-of-line (EOL) resistors for both alarm and tamper wiring, plus front and rear tamper switches. It runs on 9 to 16 VDC (typically 12 VDC) and connects to a wired zone on a Hikvision AX Hybrid Pro panel such as the DS-PHA64-LP/NP, or to another compatible 12 VDC alarm panel. The IP65 housing suits indoor and sheltered outdoor positions.

04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DS-PDC10AM-VG3
Tamper-aware detection
Active IR anti-masking plus front and rear tamper report spraying, covering or interference with the detector.
Stable, low false alarms
Temperature compensation, sealed optics and a white-light filter keep wired detection dependable indoors and out.
Flexible wired fit
An NC output with selectable EOL resistors and an included L-shaped adapter make it easy to add to AX Hybrid Pro or other 12V panels.
05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Window perimeters
Run a curtain across vulnerable windows so an attempted entry is caught the moment the plane is crossed.
Doors and French doors
Protect entry doors and glazed doors while allowing normal indoor movement behind the beam.
Trap zones indoors
Create a discreet trap across a hallway or stairwell that a moving intruder must break.
Sheltered outdoor openings
Use the IP65 rating to guard openings on patios, verandahs and other covered exterior areas.
06Setup
Installation & setup
-
01
Plan the beam
Decide which window or door plane to guard, and mount so the 5-degree curtain runs along that opening within the 10m wall or 6m ceiling range.
-
02
Fit with the adapter
Use the included L-shaped adapter to set the angle on a frame, wall or ceiling, keeping the lens clear of obstructions.
-
03
Wire to the panel
Connect the NC alarm output and tamper to a wired zone on the AX Hybrid Pro panel, fitting the selectable EOL resistors for supervised wiring.
-
04
Set and walk test
Power up on 12 VDC, then walk through the protected plane to confirm the alarm triggers and that normal indoor movement does not.
08Questions
Frequently asked about the DS-PDC10AM-VG3
Q.01
What is a curtain detector and how is it different from a normal PIR?
A curtain detector projects a thin, vertical fan of infrared rather than a wide room-filling pattern. It is designed to guard the line of a window or doorway, triggering when that plane is crossed while people can still move freely inside the room behind it.
Q.02
Is the DS-PDC10AM-VG3 wired or wireless?
It is a wired detector. It gives a normally closed alarm output with selectable EOL resistors and runs on 9 to 16 VDC, connecting to a wired zone on an AX Hybrid Pro panel such as the DS-PHA64-LP/NP or another compatible 12 VDC alarm panel.
Q.03
What does the AM (anti-masking) feature do?
Active infrared anti-masking watches for any attempt to spray, cover or obstruct the lens. If the detector is masked, it reports the condition to the panel so the tampering does not go unnoticed.
Q.04
How far does it detect?
The 5-degree curtain beam reaches up to 10m when wall-mounted or up to 6m when ceiling-mounted, across 32 detection zones, which suits most windows, doors and narrow approaches.
Q.05
Can it be used outdoors?
Yes, the housing is rated IP65, so it is suited to indoor and sheltered outdoor positions across an operating range of -10 to 55 degrees C.
Q.06
Will it ignore my pets?
It does not carry a published pet-immunity rating. Because the beam is a narrow vertical curtain, you can aim it across a window or door plane and away from where pets move, but it is not a pet-immune room sensor.
Q.07
Which panel does it work with?
It is built for the Hikvision AX Hybrid Pro platform and wires to a panel such as the DS-PHA64-LP/NP. It can also connect to other compatible 12 VDC alarm panels using its NC output and EOL resistors.
Q.08
Is it hard to install?
No, it mounts to a frame, wall or ceiling and includes an L-shaped adapter for angle. You wire the NC output and tamper to a panel zone with the selectable EOL resistors, then test detection across the protected opening.
