Description
Photoelectric Beam sensors
The Photoelectric Beam Sensor is an advanced security device designed to detect intrusions by sensing the interruption of infrared beams. These sensors are ideal for outdoor perimeter security, offering a reliable solution for large-scale coverage. Capable of detecting motion up to 50 meters or more, the sensors use either single or dual beam configurations to create an invisible detection zone, making them highly effective for guarding fences, walls, and entry points.
Constructed with durable ABS plastic or die-cast aluminum, the beam sensors are weatherproof with an IP65 or higher rating, making them suitable for use in harsh environments, including extreme temperatures ranging from -20°C to +50°C. The sensors are built with surge protection and a tamper-proof design, ensuring long-lasting and secure operation in outdoor settings.
Featuring adjustable sensitivity and beam height for precise coverage, the sensors allow for fine-tuning to minimize false alarms and adapt to various environmental factors like wind or rain. The sensors are equipped with anti-false alarm technology such as digital signal processing (DSP) and rain/snow rejection algorithms to maintain reliability in diverse weather conditions. Integration with alarm systems is seamless, offering a NO (Normally Open) or NC (Normally Closed) relay output for immediate alert when the beam is broken.
These photoelectric sensors provide fast response times and are energy-efficient, operating on 12V DC or 24V DC with low current consumption. With additional features like automatic self-alignment, LED indicators for installation guidance, and options for backup batteries, the photoelectric beam sensors offer a comprehensive and effective solution for securing large areas and preventing unauthorized access.
