Infrared Photocell for Auto Gate Safety - 20m Detection, IP65 Waterproof, 12-24V Wide Voltage

Precision Protection for Automated Access Control

The Infrared Photocell redefines safety and reliability for auto gates in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. Engineered with adaptive signal processing, this sensor delivers 20-meter detection accuracy even in blinding sunlight (up to 130,000 Lux) or dense fog, ensuring zero false triggers from reflective surfaces, LED headlights, or airborne debris. Its IP65-rated polycarbonate housing withstands extreme weather—torrential rains, sandstorms, and salt spray in coastal regions—while operating flawlessly across a -35°C to +80°C temperature range, ideal for Arctic climates or desert heatwaves. The 12-24V wide voltage compatibility eliminates the need for external power regulators, seamlessly integrating with solar arrays, backup batteries, or standard grid systems, reducing installation costs by 30%.

Unlike conventional sensors, its dual-beam alignment technology creates a fail-safe detection zone, distinguishing between vehicles, pedestrians, and small animals to prevent costly collisions. Certified to ISO 13849 (Safety Integrity Level 2) and EN 12453 (gate safety), it’s trusted in high-traffic environments like hospitals, logistics hubs, and luxury estates. The 0.07-second response time—25% faster than industry averages—halts gate movement instantly, while energy-efficient circuitry slashes standby power consumption to 0.2W, aligning with green building initiatives.
