Outdoor Barrier Gate Safety Sensor - 20m Beam Detection, ABS+PC Anti-UV Material

The Outdoor Barrier Gate Safety Sensor is engineered to deliver unparalleled security and reliability for automated access systems in high-traffic environments such as parking lots, logistics hubs, and industrial complexes. Featuring 20-meter infrared beam detection, this sensor creates an invisible safety zone to detect vehicles, pedestrians, or obstacles in real time, instantly triggering barrier arm reversal or alarms to prevent collisions and operational disruptions. Built for harsh outdoor conditions, its ABS+PC anti-UV housing resists fading, cracking, and corrosion caused by prolonged sun exposure, ensuring long-term durability even in extreme temperatures (-30°C to +70°C). With an IP65 waterproof and dustproof rating, it performs flawlessly in rain, snow, or dusty environments, making it ideal for 24/7 outdoor installations. Certified by CE and FCC, this sensor meets global safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards, providing peace of mind for facility managers and system integrators prioritizing compliance and risk reduction.

Designed for seamless integration, this sensor supports 12-24V AC/DC dual power input, eliminating the need for voltage converters and simplifying installation in existing infrastructure. The 500mA@48V relay output ensures rapid signal transmission to gate controllers or emergency stop systems, achieving a response time of ≤0.1 seconds—critical for preventing accidents in fast-paced settings like toll booths or warehouse loading docks. Its modular transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) units allow flexible mounting at heights ranging from 20cm to 2 meters, adapting to low-profile barriers or elevated gate systems without compromising detection accuracy. The low-power design (≤35mA operating current) reduces energy costs and supports solar-powered setups, ideal for eco-conscious projects. Advanced anti-interference technology filters out false triggers from ambient light, fog, or reflective surfaces, ensuring consistent performance in challenging conditions. Beyond barrier gates, deploy this sensor for security perimeters, automated car washes, or agricultural gate systems where reliability and weather resistance are paramount. Trusted by engineers worldwide, it combines industrial-grade resilience, precision detection, and effortless maintenance to redefine safety standards in outdoor automation.
