Sensor for Elevator
 

Multiple-Beam Sensor
 
Feature

This is an infrared beam sensor for multiple beams, which is designed to detect obstacles on the doorway of elevator. It is an intelligent sensor, which assures smooth entering or exiting of people, carrier, stroller, etc., from the elevator by restricting the door from closing when it detects any obstacle on the doorway. If it is combined with a dedicated power supply box, it is adaptable to an AC power supply circuit or control circuit that utilizes contactors.
