Photoelectric beam detectors for access control system and gate opener/operator

Many home owners wish to have an automated gate operators can automatically open the door when detecting the presence of a moving object such as people or vehicle. Photoelectric beam detectors are the ideal security detectors can be connected to your existing access control system or gate operator, the whole system uses using ABT/ABE dual beam photoelectric beam which adopts active infrared detection technology can reduce false detection when detecting obstructions. To setup an automated gate opener system with photoelectric beam detectors only take two simple steps.

Installation of photoelectric beam 

An automated gate opener system may use two pairs of photoelectric beam detectors. Dual-beam model is sufficient for this application. Two sets of photoelectric beam detector should be installed/placed outside of path of gate. One pair is wall mounted beside the door/gate, another pair is placed a bit far away from the gate with stainless steel poles. You can check figure 1 to know correct placement of photoelectric beam detectors in relation to the gate.
