Security Protection Kit

Bottom Line is That You Need Protection From Moisture, Torches and Physical Attack.

AND

you want this protection for a price that you can afford!!

The concept is simple, but finding the parts is a hassle, figuring out how to put it together is a pain and time consuming. That is why we keep thinking about it and never quite get to it.

I have solved this problem for you and I've done it at a price that you can afford to protect all of your equipment.

Having owned Laundromats and a wash for many years I had the same problems that you do, Salting, attempts to cut into the equipment with a torch, and kicking in doors, beating on the equipment with a fist or worse yet a hammer!!!

I have put together a kit with complete instructions and a simple to read schematic.

The way the kit works is very simple, I had a small circuit card made to detect any introduction of a liquid into your equipment and I found a high quality heat sensor, relay and a vibration detector to round out your protection.

If someone squirts salt water or any liquid that conducts electricity into your changer, the sensor will immediately kill the power to the changer so that the electronics won't keep frying and trigger your alarm system. Usually, the liquid will stay on the detector which keeps the power to the unit turned off. This will allow you to get to the wash and wash the validator in distilled water and probably save it. Even if you can't save this validator, with the alarm going, you won't lose another one.

The heat sensor monitors the interior temperature and if someone tries to cut into the "box", the temperature will raise in seconds and trigger your alarm system. When the temperature cools below a preset amount the sensor resets. For changers and similar units one sensor will be enough. For a large glass front vendor it might be wise to put in 2.

When someone starts beating or kicking on your equipment or door. The vibration detector will trigger the alarm system. This detector could also be mounted on walls and your roof to prevent someone from trying to enter that way. This sensor is adjustable in case you have some unusual situation, like a train that runs through the middle of your wash.

I have not included common parts that you can buy at Radio Shack or Home Depot. There is no reason for you to pay me a mark up for these items. This is the way I've been able to keep the price of this kit so low. Each part is also available separately because once you have the basic kit, you will want to add needed parts to protect other pieces of equipment including your vendors, vacs, bay meters, doors, walls or the roof. With a wireless transmitter/receiver (available from your alarm company), you can protect areas/equipment that new wires can't be run to.

The additional parts that you will need:

1- Transformer (24VAC) (I have acquired 22 of these with power cord, which you can purchase until gone.)
1- Electrical Box and Outlet
1- 110VAC Power Cord
1- Terminal strips (optional)

wire, solder-less crimp connectors, nuts&bolts, a mounting bracket from scrap metal.

If you can do anything around your wash other than collect the money, you can handle this kit.

There is one problem, I only made 100 circuit boards and that's a minimum amount I need to order next time.
