Product Overview
The BWC Series Cross-Beam Area Sensor is designed for precise obstacle detection with a minimized blind zone achieved through a 3-point cross-beam netting method. It offers a long sensing distance of 1 to 7 meters and is available in 14 model types, providing flexibility in optical axis count (4 to 20), optical axis pitch (40mm or 80mm), and sensing width (120mm to 1,040mm). Key features include built-in interference protection, a self-diagnosis function that monitors front screen contamination and optical axis obstruction, and conspicuous high luminance indicators for easy status checks. This sensor is suitable for various environments, including subway platform screen doors (PSD), and meets Korean Railway Standard (KRS) conditions for specific models. Its robust IP67 protection structure ensures reliability in diverse applications.
