About the 4561

The GRI 4561 is a miniature mercury tilt sensor switch from GRI (George Risk Industries). It detects when an object is moved or tilted, which suits protecting valuables like paintings and museum pieces, or watching equipment covers for tampering. Its small profile makes it easy to place where a larger sensor would be conspicuous.

Key features

  • Miniature profile keeps the sensor unobtrusive.
  • Senses movement or removal of museum pieces, paintings and other valuable art objects.
  • Detects tampering with or movement of equipment covers.
  • Signals an alarm if equipment is moved.

Specifications

Vendor Name: George Risk Industries

Product Type: Door Sensor

Application/Usage: Apartment

Installation Type: Hybrid (DIY + Professional)

Installation notes

Mount the sensor firmly on the item or cover you want to protect, since a tilt sensor reacts to orientation changes and a loose mount can cause false alarms. Test it after installation by tilting or moving the protected item and confirming the alarm input responds at your panel.
