Among the most technologically advanced detectors available, the WS4904 achieves superior detection and false alarm prevention through digital signal analysis. Digital information is more accurately analyzed using software and is not subject to signal degradation caused by amplification, noise, distortion or signal clipping. The detector’s technology adapts to changing environmental conditions by adjusting critical detection parameters to provide improved consistency of detection over all temperature ranges. Pet owners looking to be protected from false alarms can choose the WS4904P model version, a detector that is immune from pets weighing up to 60 lbs (27 kg).
