Safety sensor FO-MATIC

The “Safety sensor FO-MATIC” refers to a photocell safety sensor used in automatic door and gate systems.

It’s a photoelectric sensor that creates an infrared beam barrier and detects obstructions in its path. If the beam is interrupted, it triggers a relay to stop or reverse the door or gate movement, preventing accidents. 

Here’s a more detailed explanation:
  • How it works:

    The FO-MATIC sensor consists of a transmitter (emitting the infrared beam) and a receiver (detecting the beam). 

  • Purpose:

    It’s designed to detect objects or people in the path of a closing door or gate and prevent them from being struck. 

  • Applications:

    It’s used in various automated systems, including garage doors, sliding doors, and swing gates. 

  • Key features:
    • Digital coding on two channels (A or B) to prevent interference. 
    • Double relay for switching contacts. 
    • It can be used for both safety and anti-theft purposes. 
  • Safety function:

    When the infrared beam is interrupted, the sensor activates a relay to stop or reverse the door, preventing potential injuries. 

  • Example:
    In garage door openers, it prevents the door from closing if a person, pet, or object is in its path.

Safety Sensor P52000H

IP Rating: IP54
Certification: CE
Working Voltage: 12V-24V AC/DC

Protection Index: IP54
Photocell Wavelength: 940nm
Receiver Range: More Than 12m
Weight: 139g
A gate opener safety sensor is a crucial component of automated gate systems designed to prevent accidents and damage by detecting obstructions in the gate's path.
These sensors, often photoelectric, use an infrared beam to monitor the area and trigger the gate to stop or reverse if something is blocking its movement. 
How it works:
  • Transmitter and Receiver:
    A safety sensor typically consists of a transmitter that emits an infrared light beam and a receiver that detects the beam.
  • Obstruction Detection:
    When an object, person, or vehicle interrupts the beam, the receiver signals the gate operator to stop or reverse the gate's movement.
  • Safety Feature:
    This mechanism prevents the gate from closing on anything or anyone, ensuring safety and preventing potential damage. 
Types of Safety Sensors:
  • Photoelectric Sensors (Photo Eyes):
    These are the most common type, using an infrared beam to detect obstructions. 
  • Safety Edges:
    These sensors are typically placed along the edge of the gate and trigger a stop or reverse when they encounter pressure. 
  • Induction Loops:
    These sensors are embedded in the ground and detect vehicles as they pass over them, triggering the gate to open or close. 
Importance:
  • Safety:
    The primary function is to prevent accidents and injuries by stopping or reversing the gate when an obstruction is present. 
  • Preventing Damage:
    By detecting obstructions, these sensors help avoid damage to the gate, vehicles, or anything else in its path. 
  • Compliance:
    Safety sensors are often required for automated gates to meet safety regulations and standards. 
Common Issues:
  • Misalignment:
    If the sensor is misaligned, the infrared beam may not reach the receiver, causing the gate to malfunction.
  • Obstructions:
    Debris, dirt, or other obstructions can interfere with the beam and trigger false alarms.
  • Sensor Failure:
    Like any electronic device, sensors can fail over time, requiring replacement.

Keypad Access Control K280S6

*Rain Shield Cover included *Backlight *DC 12-24 V *EM/ID card/tag reader *2000 Users *Doorbell *Shock resistance *Anti-vandal Metal shell *IP67
Keypad access control is a security system that uses a keypad to restrict entry to authorized individuals by requiring them to enter a specific code.
Instead of physical keys, users input a PIN or code on the keypad, and if the code is correct, the system unlocks the door or gate. 
Here's a more detailed explanation:
How it works:
  • Keypad:
    A keypad, typically with numbered buttons, is installed at the entry point. 
  • Code Entry:
    Users enter a pre-defined code on the keypad. 
  • Access Granted:
    If the code matches the system's records, the door or gate is unlocked, granting access. 
  • Security:
    Keypad access control systems offer a higher level of security than traditional locks and keys, as codes can be changed and managed more easily. 
  • Convenience:
    They provide keyless entry, eliminating the need to carry physical keys or fobs. 
  • Integration:
    Keypad systems can be integrated with other security systems, such as access control panels or alarm systems. 
Types of Keypad Access Control:
  • Standalone:
    These systems are self-contained and don't require external software or computers. 
  • Networked:
    These systems are connected to a network, allowing for centralized management and reporting. 
  • Integrated:
    Keypads can be part of a larger access control system, often combined with other methods like RFID cards or biometrics. 
Common Applications:
  • Residential Buildings:
    Keypads can be used for entry into apartment buildings, condos, or individual units. 
  • Commercial Buildings:
    Keypads are used for access control in offices, retail stores, and other businesses. 
  • Industrial Facilities:
    Keypads can control access to restricted areas in factories and warehouses. 
  • Gates and Barriers:
    Keypads can be used to control access to parking lots, garages, or other gated areas. 
Benefits of Keypad Access Control:
  • Enhanced Security:
    Keypads provide a secure way to manage access, reducing the risk of unauthorized entry. 
  • Increased Convenience:
    Keyless entry eliminates the hassle of carrying keys. 
  • Scalability:
    Keypad systems can be easily scaled to accommodate changes in access requirements. 
  • Cost-Effectiveness:
    Keypad systems can be a cost-effective solution for access control, especially when compared to more complex systems.

Dual swing gate opener –HiGate HGSW950

A dual swing gate opener is a motorized system designed to automatically open and close a double swing gate, which consists of two gate panels that meet in the middle.
Each gate panel has its own opener mechanism, allowing them to swing open in opposite directions simultaneously. This setup is common for driveways and other entry points where a wider opening is needed without requiring a single, longer gate. 
Here's a more detailed explanation:
  • Dual Swing Gates:
    These gates have two leaves or panels that swing open, typically inward or outward, to create an opening. 
  • Dual Opener Mechanisms:
    Each leaf of the gate is equipped with its own opener mechanism, which is usually an arm that pushes or pulls the gate. 
  • Synchronized Movement:
    The two opener mechanisms are designed to work together, opening and closing the gate leaves in a coordinated and synchronized manner. 
  • Applications:
    Dual swing gate openers are commonly used for driveways, parking lots, and other areas where a wide opening is needed and a single gate might be too large or impractical. 
  • Benefits:
    They offer space efficiency as they require less space to swing open compared to a single, long gate. They can also provide a more elegant and sophisticated look to the entrance.
