Hikvision DS-PDC10DM-VG3 Outdoor Directional Dual-Tech Anti-Mask Curtain Detector with EOLR, Slim, IP65

SKU: DS-PDC10DM-VG3
Description

The Hikvision DS-PDC10DM-VG3 is a wired outdoor dual-tech curtain detector for AX Hybrid Pro and general wired alarm panels. It combines a PIR sensor with a 24GHz microwave sensor that must both agree before it alarms, throwing a narrow 5 degree curtain along a wall, window or balcony to catch an intruder at the perimeter - with far fewer false alarms outdoors.

01Overview

What the DS-PDC10DM-VG3 is

The Hikvision DS-PDC10DM-VG3 is a wired outdoor curtain detector that uses two sensing technologies together for dependable perimeter protection. A passive infrared sensor and a 24GHz microwave sensor must both detect a target before the unit alarms, which dramatically cuts the false alarms that catch out single-technology detectors outdoors - from wind-blown foliage, heat or small animals.

It throws a thin 5 degree curtain of detection, reaching 10m on a wall mount or 6m on a ceiling mount, across 32 zones with a detectable speed of 0.2 to 3m/s. Active IR anti-masking raises an alert if the lens is covered, sprayed or obstructed, so an intruder cannot quietly disable it first. Directional detection lets the system respond based on which way a target is moving, and a slim body suits window-frame mounting, with an L-shaped adapter bracket included for aiming. The IP65 housing handles outdoor conditions from -25 to 60 degrees.

Being wired, it gives a normally-closed alarm output with selectable end-of-line resistors, so the panel can supervise the zone for cut or shorted wiring, and front and rear tamper switches report interference. It runs on 9-16VDC (typically 12VDC) at a low current draw. It connects to an AX Hybrid Pro panel or another general wired alarm panel - not a wireless AX PRO hub. For a wireless equivalent, the DS-PDC10DM-EG2-WB is the hub-based dual-tech outdoor curtain detector, and the DS-PDC10AM-VG3 is the PIR-only wired version.

02Engineering

DS-PDC10DM-VG3 specifications

- Dual-technology detection: a PIR sensor and a 24GHz microwave sensor must both agree before alarming, cutting outdoor false alarms.

- Narrow 5 degree curtain reaches 10m on wall mount or 6m on ceiling across 32 zones, with directional detection support.

- Active IR anti-masking alarms immediately if the lens is covered, sprayed or obstructed.

- IP65 weatherproof housing rated for -25 to 60 degree outdoor operation, with a slim body and an L-shaped adapter bracket included.

- Normally-closed alarm output with selectable EOL resistors for supervised, tamper-proof wiring; front and rear tamper.

- Wired 9-16VDC (typically 12VDC) at a low current draw, with clear LED indicators for PIR, microwave, mask and alarm states.

04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use the DS-PDC10DM-VG3

Far fewer outdoor false alarms

Dual PIR-plus-microwave sensing requires both to agree, so wind, heat and small animals are far less likely to trigger it.

Catch intruders at the perimeter

A narrow curtain beam guards walls, windows and balconies, giving warning before entry rather than after.

Anti-masking protection

Active IR anti-masking alarms if the lens is blocked, so the detector cannot be quietly disabled.

Supervised wired zone

A normally-closed output with selectable EOL resistors lets the panel watch for cut or shorted cabling.

05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Windows and balconies

Lay a curtain across ground-floor windows, sliding doors and balconies to stop entry attempts.

External walls and fence lines

Guard the face of a building or a fenced boundary along its length, outdoors in IP65 conditions.

High-false-alarm sites

Use dual-tech sensing where a single PIR would over-trigger from weather, traffic or wildlife.

Perimeter-first systems

Combine with indoor detectors so the alarm catches both the approach and any entry that follows.

06Setup

Installation & setup

  1. Choose wall or ceiling

    Wall mount gives the full 10m reach; ceiling mount gives 6m. Use the included L-shaped adapter to aim the 5 degree curtain.

  2. Aim the curtain

    Align the narrow beam along the wall, window or balcony you are protecting, at a mounting height of 2 to 4m.

  3. Wire to the panel

    Connect the normally-closed output and tamper to a wired panel zone, fitting the selectable EOL resistor for your panel.

  4. Power and test

    Apply 9-16VDC, enable anti-masking and directional detection as needed, then walk-test the curtain before arming.

08Questions

Frequently asked about the DS-PDC10DM-VG3

Q.01

Is the DS-PDC10DM-VG3 wired or wireless?

It is wired, connecting by cable to an AX Hybrid Pro panel or another general wired alarm panel. For a wireless hub-based version, choose the DS-PDC10DM-EG2-WB instead.
Q.02

What does dual-tech detection mean?

It has two sensors - passive infrared and 24GHz microwave - that must both detect a target before it alarms. Requiring both to agree greatly reduces false alarms outdoors from heat, wind or small animals.
Q.03

Can it be used outdoors?

Yes, it is rated IP65 and operates from -25 to 60 degrees, so it suits external walls, windows, balconies and perimeters when mounted correctly.
Q.04

What does anti-masking do?

Active IR anti-masking watches the lens and alarms if it is covered, sprayed or blocked, so an intruder cannot quietly disable the detector before approaching.
Q.05

How far does the curtain reach?

Up to 10m on a wall mount or 6m on a ceiling mount, over a narrow 5-degree beam across 32 detection zones.
Q.06

Does it have pet immunity?

Its datasheet does not specify a pet-immunity weight, so it is best treated as a perimeter detector rather than a pet-tolerant room sensor. Aim the curtain where pets cannot cross it.
Q.07

How does it wire to the panel?

It provides a normally-closed alarm output with selectable end-of-line resistors, so the panel can supervise the zone for cut or shorted cabling, plus front and rear tamper. It runs on 9-16VDC.
Q.08

Which panels does it work with?

AX Hybrid Pro and other general wired alarm panels. It is a wired detector, so it does not enrol to a wireless AX PRO hub.
