Furie Irritant Gas System From Cerberus
Active Burglary Protection with Tear Gas
The Furie irritant gas system from Cerberus is much more than a conventional alarm system. It is an active intruder defense system that reacts immediately in an emergency. In the event of an attempted break-in, the system automatically releases CS gas, also known as tear gas, which causes severe irritation to the eyes and respiratory tract within seconds. This forces the intruder to flee immediately, effectively preventing damage.
Unlike conventional alarm systems, which only indicate that a break-in is occurring, the Furie system takes active measures.
You are on solid legal ground. It complies with the EN 50130-4:2015 standard, is TÜV-certified, and uses a BKA 17r CS cartridge tested by the Federal Criminal Police Office. This allows you to combine active protection with clear legal compliance and maximum security.
Technical Features and Functionality
The Furie irritant gas system consists of several core components that work together to reliably defend against intruders. All components are designed for maximum safety and easy integration into existing systems.
Core Elements
- Furie X-750 Irritant Gas Module: The heart of the system is the 750 ml CS irritant gas cartridge. When the alarm is triggered, the cartridge activates immediately and distributes the irritant evenly throughout the protected area. The compact, robust module can be installed in a wide variety of rooms, vehicles, and mobile objects. It can be placed flexibly as long as the effective range of the irritant gas is utilized optimally.
- Warning stickers: The scope of delivery includes warning stickers that are mandatory and effectively deter potential intruders by informing them in advance about the use of irritant gas.
- Battery pack: Power is supplied by a modular battery pack. This keeps the system operational in the event of a power failure or during mobile use. The long-lasting power supply ensures the module is activated whenever an alarm is triggered.
Performance and Triggering
- Activation via voltage or batteries: The module is triggered as soon as a defined voltage is applied, typically through the alarm output (PGM) of an alarm system. Alternatively, activation can be via batteries in certain scenarios, such as a 9-volt block. This means that the system can be used both stationary and mobile.
- Technical requirements: The module operates within the 5-28 volt DC range and requires a current of at least 50 mA for reliable operation. These values enable the module to be integrated seamlessly into existing alarm systems or security concepts without the need for additional energy sources.
- Active ingredient: CS gas, a non-flammable spray solution, is used as the irritant. It acts quickly on the eyes and respiratory tract, forcing the perpetrator to flee and minimizing the risk of property damage. The special cartridge design ensures reliable and controlled dosing for both small rooms and larger protection areas.
Additional Information
- Easy Installation: All components are modular and can be easily integrated into existing alarm systems.
- Safe operation: Triggering occurs exclusively via defined electrical signals, which minimizes false alarms.
- Easy maintenance: The cartridges can be quickly and easily replaced, and the warning labels can be easily attached. These features keep operation simple and reliable.
Areas of Application and Target Groups
The Furie irritant gas system is an active security module used in areas where conventional alarm systems are insufficient. It is ideal for properties where valuable goods are stored, a quick response is essential, and a security service is unavailable.
1. Commercial and Industrial Areas
This system is a reliable addition to burglar alarm systems in warehouses, workshops, production facilities, and car dealerships. As soon as an attempted break-in is detected, the irritant gas module releases CS gas to drive away the perpetrator. This is particularly effective in preventing break-ins outside of business hours, such as weekends, when it would take security services time to arrive.
Typical end customers include:
- Metalworking and mechanical engineering companies
- Craft businesses with high-value tools or machines
- Car repair shops, tire dealers, paint shops
- Car dealerships and used car dealers
- Warehousing and logistics companies
These businesses provide an opportunity to offer the system as an upgrade to existing alarm systems, such as those that already use a control panel with a PGM output.
2. Retail Stores and Checkout Areas
Furie can be used as a personal protection system in retail stores, gas stations, jewelry stores, and nighttime service areas. If an attempted robbery or break-in is detected, the system reacts immediately to drive the attacker away. It provides an additional sense of security, especially during night and weekend shifts when only one person is usually on site.
Typical end customers include:
- Gas station operators
- Jewelry stores
- Electronics and mobile phone shops
- Pharmacies and drugstores
- Late-night shops and night counters
- Supermarkets with sensitive checkout areas
This area is particularly interesting for specialty retailers because the combination of an alarm system and active defense can significantly increase security standards without costly renovations.
3. Private and Commercial Real Estate
The system is especially useful for vacant buildings, vacation homes, garage complexes, and construction site containers. In places where people are sporadically present, Furie immediately stops perpetrators — long before security services or owners can react.
Typical end customers include:
- Real estate and property management companies
- Operators of vacation properties or Airbnb properties
- Construction companies with material containers or tool depots
- Owners of garage facilities or carports
As an installer, this is an ideal area of application for you to offer additional security solutions to your existing customers with property protection needs.
4. Vehicle and Mobile Protection
The irritant gas module is a useful addition to the mobile sector. Whether it's in vans, trucks, motorhomes, or boats, wherever valuable items are transported or stored, Furie can react immediately in the event of a break-in or tampering.
Typical end customers include:
- Logistics companies and courier services
- Craft businesses with service vehicles
- Camping vehicle and boat owners
- Companies with vehicle fleets or construction site vehicles
Thanks to its compact design and battery operation, the system can be flexibly installed, even in mobile applications without a fixed power supply.
5. Remote or Unguarded Locations
In rural areas and hard-to-reach places where personnel monitoring is virtually impossible, the Furie system acts as a reliable first line of defense. It protects properties such as solar parks, wind turbines, radio stations, and agricultural warehouses, where break-ins are often discovered too late.
Typical end customers include:
- Energy suppliers and operators of photovoltaic or wind power plants
- Farmers with equipment sheds or storage facilities for diesel or fertilizer
- Operators of remote storage or technical buildings
This area is particularly exciting for systems integrators because traditional monitoring systems often reach their limits here. Furie offers an easy, effective solution for immediate defense.
Legal and Safety Information
The Furie irritant gas system uses a CS cartridge that has been tested and approved by the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA). This means that it is legally compliant for use, provided that the safety requirements are observed, particularly with regard to correctly displaying warning notices.
The system can easily be integrated into existing alarm systems or security concepts. Warning notices legally protect you and your customers and act as a deterrent to potential perpetrators.
All components are TÜV-tested and comply with relevant European safety standards. These standards ensure reliable triggering, safe storage of the cartridge, and general operational safety.
The CS cartridge has a shelf life of at least 24 months. After activation, replace it to ensure the system is always ready for use. For you, as an installer or specialist dealer, replacing it is a clearly defined and simple process that ensures ongoing operation.
Activation is carried out exclusively via defined voltage pulses, such as those from an alarm control panel. This significantly reduces the risk of false alarms or accidental activation.
For which customers is the system particularly interesting?
The Furie tear gas system is used wherever conventional alarm systems are ineffective. It provides active protection for properties that store valuable goods or where a rapid human response is not possible.
It is particularly relevant for industries with high security requirements, such as logistics companies, workshops, car dealerships, gas stations, and retail businesses that store expensive goods, tools, or machinery. Property management companies also use it to secure vacant buildings, warehouses, and garages.
In the hotel and tourism industry, it is ideal for securing vacation homes, chalets, and boathouses that are temporarily unoccupied. The system is also ideal for agricultural businesses, construction companies, and energy suppliers that need to protect remote buildings, containers, or outdoor facilities.
It is also suitable as a supplement to existing alarm technology when an immediate response to a break-in attempt is desired, such as in properties with limited security services, night counters, or cash register areas.
Advantages over Traditional Alarm Systems
The Furie irritant gas system offers significantly more than traditional alarms. While traditional systems only sound an alarm when a break-in occurs, the Furie system takes immediate and active measures. The perpetrator is stopped instantly by the release of CS gas. This triggers a notification to security personnel or the police and prevents the intruder from gaining access. This effectively prevents damage to people or property.
The system's flexibility allows for easy integration into existing alarm systems. It can be activated via alarm outputs or operated independently using batteries. Even in the event of a power failure, the system remains fully functional, and attempts to tamper with the power supply do not affect its effectiveness. This makes Furie particularly suitable for remote or difficult-to-monitor properties where a conventional alarm often reacts too late.
Additionally, the system is easy to maintain; the durable cartridge can be easily replaced after activation. Therefore, you can offer your customers a solution that is always operational without the need for extensive training or complicated installations.
With Furie, your customers receive more than just an alarm; they receive a fully-fledged intruder defense system that actively protects, deters, and reacts immediately. This is a clear added value compared to passive security solutions.
