Description

Mobeye MiniPir iCM41C Container Alarm

The Mobeye MiniPir iCM41C is a container alarm built for protecting valuable assets stored in shipping containers and other metal structures, such as electricity substations and powerhouses. This self-contained PIR alarm system runs on battery power and includes an integrated 4G/2G communication module. An external mushroom antenna with a 2.5-metre cable makes it well-suited for metal containers or areas with limited mobile signal strength.

When a break-in occurs, the iCM41C sends notifications by push message, phone call, SMS, and/or email, so you’re alerted promptly wherever you are.

Note: The iCM41C shares the same specifications as the Mobeye MiniPir Intruder Alarm iCM41, with one key addition: the external mushroom antenna and 2.5-metre cable, which extend reliable 4G/2G reception into metal containers and other low-signal environments.

Why Shipping Containers Need a Dedicated Container Alarm

Shipping containers are used for far more than transport — they double as temporary offices and secure storage for tools, supplies, and equipment. Left in parking areas or remote sites, they’re vulnerable to break-ins, and lock boxes or padlocks alone don’t prevent theft. A self-contained, battery-powered container alarm with a built-in PIR motion sensor and 4G/2G communication solves this: it needs no external power, is easy to install, and alerts you immediately if unauthorised movement is detected inside.

Because metal containers block or weaken mobile signal, the external mushroom antenna and its 2.5-metre cable are mounted outside the container to maintain reliable reception. That’s the specific problem the iCM41C is built to solve.

Passive Infrared Sensor

The iCM41C responds instantly to movement. When the container is opened, the PIR sensor detects motion or air displacement and triggers the alarm, immediately notifying your designated contacts.

Battery-Operated

The iCM41C is designed for energy efficiency, running for more than a year on a single set of batteries. When batteries need replacing, the system sends an automatic notification — no need to check manually.

Easy Set-Up in Four Steps

Setting up the Mobeye MiniPir iCM41C is quick and straightforward:

• Create an account: Register on the Mobeye Portal to manage settings and notifications.
• Activate the Mobeye SIM card: Use the SIM card included with your device to enable communication.
• Add contact persons: Specify who will receive alerts.
• Install the Mobeye Messages app: Ensure all contacts download the app for instant updates and notifications.

After these steps, the alarm is ready to provide real-time container security.

Common Applications of the Mobeye iCM41C

As a container alarm, the iCM41C is suited to a range of use cases:

• Securing metal storage containers, including construction site containers, shipping containers, and other metal enclosures.
• Protecting small metal structures, such as electricity substations and powerhouses.
• Operating in weak mobile network areas, such as indoor construction sites or vacant properties.
