How Fine‑Chemical Parks Mitigate Rogue‑Drone Risks: 24/7 Perimeter Protection with CH13 Passive UAV Detector
Published On: October 28, 2026
A large fine‑chemical industrial park in Southeast Asia includes storage tanks, pressure pipelines and hazardous‑chemical production facilities. Unauthorized drone over‑flights may trigger information leakage, foreign‑object hazards and safety risks. Manual visual monitoring performs poorly during night‑time or foggy weather. Many detection units are bulky and complex to deploy; active‑emission equipment risks interfering with on‑site industrial‑control wireless systems.
The end‑user is the park operator. Core requirements include 24/7 perimeter monitoring for unauthorized UAV incursions, fully‑passive operation to avoid EMI against existing wireless controls, plus whitelist‑blacklist capability to suppress false alarms from authorized on‑site drones.
CH13 portable passive UAV detection systems were deployed at key perimeter positions. Key specifications extracted from official datasheet:
- Detection frequency bands: 900MHz, 1.4GHz, 2.4GHz, 5.2GHz, 5.8GHz
- Detection radius: 5 km; max coverage 10 km, 360° omnidirectional
- Receiver sensitivity: better than ‑115 dBm@25kHz
- Identification capacity: signature library of over 350 UAV models (＞98 % market coverage), simultaneous tracking for ≥30 drones
- Operating principle: fully‑passive reception with no RF output; two working modes: Mode1(detailed telemetry including pilot location), Mode2(geofence alarm‑only)
- Alarm output: Mode1 provides drone model, flight track, GNSS coordinates, altitude and pilot position
- Power supply: 15‑hour built‑in battery runtime; AC 220V input for continuous 24/7 unattended operation
- Extra features: one‑click whitelist / blacklist; integration interface for radar, EO/IR and jamming subsystems
- Mechanical: total weight ≤13 kg, rugged case‑type unit for rapid field setup
CH13 delivers cost‑effective perimeter anti‑drone monitoring. It fits petrochemical, energy and large‑manufacturing sites where electromagnetic compatibility is critical.
