1️⃣ Beam Transmission: The system consists of a transmitter and a receiver mounted on opposite sides of the gate or entrance.
2️⃣ Invisible Infrared Barrier: The transmitter emits a constant, modulated infrared beam that is received by the opposite unit.
3️⃣ Object Detection: If an object, vehicle, or person obstructs the beam, the receiver instantly detects the interruption.
4️⃣ Automatic Gate Response: Upon detection, the system prevents the gate from closing, ensuring safety and security.
5️⃣ Tamper-Proof & Fail-Safe Design: If the system is damaged or tampered with, it automatically signals an alert or disables the gate movement.
✔️ Prevents Accidents: Stops gates from closing on people, vehicles, or pets.
✔️ Enhances Security: Detects and alerts on unauthorized access attempts.
✔️ Reliable in All Weather Conditions: Water-resistant and UV-protected for long-term outdoor use.
✔️ Compatible with All Gate Motors: Works with Centurion and third-party gate systems.
✔️ Fast & Efficient Detection: Instant response time minimizes safety risks.
✔️ Tamper-Proof Protection: Alerts if misaligned or tampered with.
✔️ Long-Range Performance: Covers up to 40 meters, ideal for wide gate openings.
✔️ Easy Installation & Alignment: LED indicators ensure quick and precise setup.
✅ Step 1: Choose Mounting Locations – Install the transmitter and receiver at the same height, facing each other across the gate.
✅ Step 2: Align the Beams – Use the LED alignment indicators to ensure precise positioning.
✅ Step 3: Secure the Units – Use screws and adjustable brackets to firmly fix the devices.
✅ Step 4: Connect Power Supply – Wire the system to a 12V–24V AC/DC power source.
✅ Step 5: Test & Activate – Open the gate and verify that the beams stop the movement when obstructed.
💡 Pro Tip: Install the beams at waist level (around 500mm - 600mm from the ground) for optimal safety and obstruction detection.
