Frequently Asked Questions |
 |
- What pressure activates The Whip?
The Whip activates (opens) when the pressure drops to 5psi. The internal contact of The Whip closes with at least 20psi.Back to top
- How does The Whip work?
The Whip is a theft detection device that connects to an electronic security system and the service valve of the air conditioner or heat pump to be protected. It triggers the security system when the pressure inside the refrigerant line of the air conditioner or heat pump drops below an acceptable level. This drop in pressure happens very rapidly when thieves cut the copper refrigerant line.Back to top
- What makes The Whip unique?
The Whip is not a simple pressure sensor, it contains a sealed array of End-of-Line Resistors (EOLR) which are common to a wide variety of electronic security systems. An EOLR prevents a thief from circumventing The Whip by shorting the security wire connected to The Whip. If the security cable connecting The Whip to the security system is shorted, cut, or tampered with, then the security system will be activated. Furthermore, if The Whip is removed from your HVAC line it will activate your security system. Back to top
- How should my burglar alarm be programmed?
It is important to have a qualified electronic security technician make the final connections between your security system and The Whip. It is equally important to make sure that your security company programs the zone connected to The Whip as a 24 hour burglary zone with supervision enabled. That way The Whip is ready even when your alarm is not armed.Back to top
