A heavy duty version of the common beam sensor used in doorway announcers, this commercial grade infrared beam is ideal for detecting when a person or object crosses a boundary or entrance way. Simply install the sensor module aligned with the reflector and the relay output will be triggered by any object which breaks the beam. The sensor module projects a modulated beam which resists interference from sunlight and can be used over a range up to 15m. Suitable for connection to existing lighting or security systems, and also compatible with the extension buzzer and counter add-on units for our standard doorway beam. The polycarbonate casing is weatherproof with an anti-fog sensor window making it suitable for use outdoors and in dusty or damp environments. LED indicators are included to assist with installation and provide a visual indication of the beam status.

The unit does not come with a plugpack but can be directly wired to 240volt or use a 12volt DC plugpack, if wiring into 240volt mains please use a licensed electrician.

A well engineered solution than just works.

GregNovember 2025

I used PIP and microwave sensors on a driveway and got too many false alarms. This unit solved the problems completely and has been operating perfectly for over six months. I highly recommend this equipment.

Doesn't work for very long very disappointing

Bought this door buzzer to replace the faulty indoor buzzer of the same brand, like the old ones worked well for the first few months the started to randomly going off and not picking up costumers as the entered they store. we found that by unplugging the power supply for 30 seconds then back on it would work ok for a while then play up again
