Furthermore, using magnetism rather than gravity to keep the moving part in equilibrium allows for a design that employs a much smaller and lighter sphere.
Together with high quality metals employed by Magnasphere switches, this makes CLIC V-series sensors highly dependable and durable, virtually immune to the quick degradation of electrical properties of traditional, gravity-based technologies, where much more substantial masses are used as vibration detectors. A robust, all-metal construction makes it resistant to temperature fluctuations, minimising false alarms.
Finally, since magnetic fields alone are responsible for keeping the internal sphere in equilibrium, V-series sensors can be installed without any positioning constraints, allowing their placement near the regions of the door or window that are more susceptible of being forced open during a break-in attempt: higher security, lower installation costs.
