Large industrial sectional doors can be found everywhere in modern factories. Because of its good insulation, sealing, and windproof performance, so commonly used in large factories, logistics, medicine, electronics, food, warehouse workshop, and so on places. Industrial sectional is the most common metal industrial door, the door body is strong and heavy is the most obvious characteristic of the sectional door. But if the consequences of safety accidents will be very serious, the safety performance of the industrial sectional door is very important to protect. The PF50R-AR laser retro-reflective photoelectric switch detects highly reflective objects with ease and without stress, and the LSE area protection light curtain with Hidden problem is more suitable for integration in the door body.

With 20 years of experience in the security industry, G-TEK insists on providing customers with the most suitable and reliable photoelectric sensor solutions.

Solution 1: PF50R-AR Laser Retro-reflective Photoelectric Switch

1. Easy to install and easy to align the red laser.

The reflector-type photoelectric sensor is one of the most convenient photoelectric products to install. You only need to connect the sensor product to electricity and use it, and the reflector at the other end is fixed with a fixed bracket and screws for normal use. The bright red laser light source increases the efficiency of the product installation and alignment. Save time and cost for on-site installation.

2. IP67-level protective housing

PF50R-AR laser retro-reflective photoelectric sensor has a one-piece molding housing design and an IP67 level of safety protection. This allows the product to cope with all kinds of outdoor weather. The industrial sectional door is the most common metal industrial door, often used as a protective outer door of the factory. Faced with the outdoor environment of rain and snow, PF50R-AR laser retro-reflective photoelectric sensor can still maintain excellent protection performance.

3. Polarization design, easy to deal with highly reflective objects

The industrial sectional door is also the main product type of garage door. For the safety protection of sectional garage doors, it is necessary to solve the problem of highly reflective object detection. PF50R-AR laser retro-reflective photoelectric sensor built-in polarization sheet design can effectively filter stray light. Accurate detection of highly reflective objects transported by sectional doors, providing the safest use environment for application scenarios.

4.8m detection distance

Retro-reflective working principle and high-precision laser light source at the same time to ensure the absolute effective detection distance of 8 meters. It can be applied to most of the industrial sectional doors and sectional garage doors on the market.

Solution 2: LSE area protection light curtain

1. Slim housing design

The lightweight housing allows the product to be perfectly concealed in the door chute on both sides. G-TEK has been working in the field of photoelectric sensors for 20 years, and it has been our pursuit to provide customers with the most perfect application requirements under the premise of ensuring product performance.

2. Hidden problem

Hidden problem makes the door curtain in the process of falling even if the blocking beam point will not trigger the stop signal. The slim housing design and the door defeat function make the LSE area detection light curtain more suitable for integration into the door design.

3. Simple and easy to install

Optical synchronous communication makes wiring and installation simple. 3 interface formats are available for LSE area measuring light curtains to meet different field installation situations. There are 2 types of installation for industrial sectional doors. G-TEK also provides an exclusive metal housing for this type of installation. Protect the product to avoid accidental impact caused by injury.

4. Higher protection experience

Designed for customers with higher security requirements for beam area detection light curtains. The traditional photoelectric sensors are only installed in the bottom and middle of the door each pair, is only able to cope with most of the ordinary work scenarios. But most industrial sectional doors only use hard aluminum alloy material for the door body, the wind resistance function is improved at the same time the danger index has also increased. Also to cope with the transportation of irregular objects in the factory, such as logs, steel, glass, and other objects, the photoelectric sensor must also use a higher level of protection type of product to ensure the safety of the application scenario. The product offers three detection ranges, with a minimum detection range of 50mm, and also supports customization services to provide a more suitable sensor solution for a variety of industrial sectional doors.

In addition to the above two products, there are PM18T cylindrical photoelectric sensors and PF50T opposite photoelectric sensors are also suitable for industrial sectional door safety protection products. It is installed in the middle of the door as a guard. This product is usually used in combination with the PF50R. However, for large industrial sectional doors, PF50T is more suitable for the detection distance and higher detection accuracy of the PF50T through-beam sensors.

We hope the above information can help you to select the right sensor protection product for your industrial sectional door. G-TEK has the most professional technical service team and sales service team to provide you with the most professional sensor product solutions.
