Safety sensor FT2008
*NO/NC *AC/DC 12-24 V *Receiving Range: 15 Meters *IP 44A gate opener safety sensor is a device designed to detect objects or people in the path of an automatic gate and prevent it from closing or hitting them, ensuring safety and preventing damage or injury.
These sensors can be photoelectric, pressure sensors, magnetic sensors, or loop detectors and are crucial for preventing accidents and ensuring smooth gate operation.
Types of Gate Opener Safety Sensors:
-
Photoelectric Sensors:These sensors use an infrared beam to detect objects. When the beam is broken by an object, the gate opener is signaled to stop or reverse.
-
Pressure Sensors:These sensors are typically located along the edge of the gate and detect pressure when the gate comes into contact with an object.
-
Magnetic Sensors:These sensors use a magnetic field to detect the presence of vehicles or objects near the gate.
-
Loop Detectors:These sensors use a wire loop buried in the ground near the gate. When a vehicle or object passes over the loop, it triggers the gate to stop or reverse.
How They Work:
- Detection: The sensor detects the presence of an object or person in the gate's path.
- Signal: The sensor sends a signal to the gate operator.
- Action: The gate operator responds by stopping, reversing, or remaining open, depending on the sensor type and programmed settings.
Importance of Safety Sensors:
- Prevent Accidents: They protect people and vehicles from being hit by the gate.
- Prevent Damage: They help avoid damage to the gate, vehicles, or property.
- Ensure Reliable Operation: They contribute to the smooth and safe operation of the gate.
