The VDS-TEC2 is a photoelectric safety sensor, specifically designed for use with automated gates and doors, including swing and sliding gates.

It functions by emitting an infrared beam between two units – a sender and a receiver – to detect obstructions. When an object breaks the infrared beam, the sensor sends a signal to the gate’s control board, preventing the gate from closing or activating an alarm. 

Here’s a more detailed breakdown:
  • Function:

    The VDS-TEC2 is a type of safety sensor that uses infrared light to detect objects in its path. 

  • Application:

    It’s commonly used in gate automation systems, working with various gate types like swing and sliding gates. 

  • Components:

    The system typically consists of a sender unit that emits the infrared beam and a receiver unit that detects the beam. 

  • Operation:

    When an object interrupts the infrared beam, the sensor triggers an action, such as preventing the gate from closing, or activating an alarm. 

  • Compatibility:

    The VDS-TEC2 can be used with a variety of gate openers and is compatible with models from brands like Royal Gate. 

  • Key Features:
    The VDS-TEC2 is designed for universal light barriers, offering a range suitable for different gate designs. It can also be used in challenging weather conditions with a reduced range, such as in fog or rain.

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.
