Product Description

Takex VS-1000E Vape & Smoking Detector – 106-475Professional Vape Detection for Schools, Workplaces and Commercial Buildings

Looking for a practical way to detect vaping and smoking in areas where these activities are prohibited? The Takex VS-1000E Vape & Smoking Detector offers a professional detection solution for schools, bathrooms, change rooms, offices and other indoor commercial environments.

Distributed by Ness, the Takex VS-1000E uses a high-sensitivity particle detection system and advanced detection algorithms to: identify vaping and smoking activity. Its built-in sounder and LED indicator provide local alerts when detection occurs, helping staff respond promptly.

Unlike app-dependent alternatives, the VS-1000E operates independently without app-based management or software licensing requirements. Its configurable relay outputs also allow integration with compatible alarm panels and other systems where remote signalling or a broader security response is required.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Vape and smoking detection: Designed to detect vaping and smoking activity using particle-sensing technology.

  • Built-in audible alarm: Configurable sounder provides an immediate local alert when activity is detected.

  • Visual LED indication: Provides visual status and detection indication.

  • Adjustable sensitivity: Select standard or low sensitivity to suit the installation environment.

  • No app-based management required: Operates as a standalone detector without relying on an app or cloud dashboard.

  • Configurable alarm outputs: Select normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) relay operation for integration with compatible equipment.

  • Tamper detection: Detects removal of the cover and provides a separate tamper output.

  • Self-diagnostic monitoring: Indicates voltage abnormalities or module faults.

  • Flexible installation: Suitable for indoor wall or ceiling mounting.

  • Simple wiring: Features a twist-lock mounting base and tool-less push-fit terminals for efficient installation.

Where Can the Takex VS-1000E Be Used?

The VS-1000E is worth considering for environments where vaping and smoking need to be discouraged and detected, including:

  • Schools and educational facilities: Bathrooms, change rooms and other designated areas.

  • Workplaces and offices: Indoor areas where smoking and vaping are prohibited.

  • Hotels and accommodation: Guest bathrooms and other suitable indoor locations.

  • Gyms and recreational facilities: Change rooms and amenities.

  • Commercial and public buildings: Facilities requiring a local alert or integration with an existing security system.

Correct placement and sensitivity settings are important for reliable operation. Environmental conditions, airflow and other detectable airborne substances can affect performance.

Installation and Compatibility

The Takex VS-1000E requires a suitable 10.5–28V DC power supply, which should be selected separately unless confirmed as included in the supplied package.

Its relay outputs can be connected to compatible security equipment or other suitable systems, subject to electrical ratings and the requirements of the receiving equipment. Professional installation is recommended where integration with an existing alarm panel or building system is required.

The detector is intended for indoor use. For best results, select a location away from disruptive airflow and other potential sources of detectable airborne particles, and configure the sensitivity for the environment.

Important: The VS-1000E's smoke detection function is supplementary only. It is not a replacement for approved smoke alarms required by applicable building codes.

Why Choose the Takex VS-1000E?

For facilities looking for a straightforward vape detection solution without the complexity of cloud dashboards or ongoing software licences, the Takex VS-1000E combines local audible and visual alerts with flexible relay integration and tamper monitoring.
