"Safety is paramount when it comes to automated gate systems. The Eagle EG360 Photo Eye Sensor is a crucial component designed to prevent accidents and ensure the safe operation of your gate. Available in both monitored and non-monitored versions, this sensor offers reliable obstruction detection for various gate applications.
Understanding Monitored vs. Non-Monitored Photo Eyes:
- Non-Monitored: A traditional photo eye sensor that creates an invisible beam between a transmitter and a receiver. If this beam is interrupted by an obstruction (like a vehicle or person), the sensor signals the gate operator to stop or reverse, preventing a collision.
- Monitored (UL Listed): These advanced sensors offer an extra layer of safety. In addition to detecting obstructions, a monitored photo eye continuously checks its own functionality and the integrity of its wiring. If a fault is detected (e.g., a power issue, a broken wire, or internal failure), it signals the gate operator to stop functioning, preventing the gate from operating unsafely. Monitored photo eyes are often required for UL 325 compliance, especially in commercial and high-traffic residential applications
