Footstep Detection Protection

SISMA CA PF

Intrusion detection system for raised floors

SISMA CA PF is a subflooring intrusion detection system for the protection of technical floating floors and raised floors. It detects crossing attempts by people on protected floor areas. A close relative of the SISMA CA system for concrete-based flooring, PF is specifically designed for raised floors typical of offices, commercial environments, data centers and pool edges.

SISMA CA PF System

What it is

SISMA CA PF is a subflooring intrusion detection system specifically designed for the protection of technical floating floors and raised floors. Through dedicated sensors, the system detects the presence and movement of people on protected floor areas, immediately signaling unauthorized access attempts. The system features double knock detection to effectively discriminate actual intrusions from environmental disturbances.

Where it is used

SISMA CA PF finds ideal application in data centers, server rooms, offices with raised floors, showrooms, commercial environments and pool edges with raised wooden flooring with technical flooring. It effectively protects critical access areas, service corridors and restricted zones, ensuring discreet detection without altering the aesthetics of spaces.

Technology dedicated to raised floors

Invisible installation

Installed under the adjustable pedestals of the technical floor, the system remains completely invisible, preserving the aesthetics of environments without any visual impact.

Specific for raised floors

Specifically designed for floating and raised floors, ensuring maximum effectiveness on modular technical structures.

Footstep detection

Detects footsteps and the presence of people on the protected surface, immediately signaling crossing attempts. Also detects discrete movements such as soft footsteps or crawling.

Pet-friendly

Immune to pets thanks to minimum weight calibration, avoiding false alarms in environments with animals.

Minimal maintenance

Once installed, the system requires no maintenance, ensuring continuous reliability over time.

Adjustable sensitivity

Each zone can be calibrated individually, allowing adjustment of parameters related to sensitivity and intervention mode for each area.

Configuration software

Displays real-time signal graph and input/output status. Event history for alarm cause analysis.

Detection dedicated to raised technical floors

SISMA CA PF sensors are strategically positioned under the raised floor panels and detect the vibrations and pressure generated by a person's footsteps. When someone walks on the protected area, the system immediately identifies the presence and generates an alarm.

The technology is specifically optimized for the structural characteristics of floating floors, ensuring maximum effectiveness on this type of installation. Each detection zone provides independent signals, allowing precise localization and customized calibration.

SISMA CA PF Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions about the SISMA CA PF system

What is SISMA CA PF?

SISMA CA PF is a footstep detection system for sensing raised access floors and floating floors. It is the evolved version of SISMA CA specifically dedicated to raised floors typical of data centers, offices and commercial environments.

What is the difference with SISMA CA?

SISMA CA PF is optimized for floating and raised floors where sensors are placed under the floor, while SISMA CA is designed for external cement floors where sensors are embedded in the cement.

How does the system work?

Sensors detect pressure variations caused by the weight of a person walking on the floating floor. The signals are processed to discriminate between people and other loads, generating alarms only for unauthorized crossings.

In which environments is it used?

SISMA CA PF is ideal for data centers, server rooms, offices with raised technical floors, shops, museums and any environment where it is necessary to protect areas with floating floors without compromising aesthetics.

Is it invisible?

Yes, sensors are placed under the floating floor and are not visible. The system does not alter the aesthetic appearance of the environment and can be installed without evident structural modifications.

What is the security grade?

SISMA CA PF is certified according to EN 50131-1 grade 2 standards, ensuring reliability and high performance for critical indoor environment protection.

How is it installed?

Installation occurs by placing sensors under the floating floor during construction or renovation. Sensors are fixed to the subfloor and connected to cables before laying the floor plates.

Does it detect objects or animals?

The system is configured to discriminate between people and other light loads. It can be programmed to ignore small animals or fallen objects, generating alarms only for the passage of people.

What is the maximum coverage?

A single control unit can manage up to 100 sensors distributed over areas up to 1000 m². The system can be expanded with multiple control units to cover larger environments.
