Product Overview
The BWC Series Cross-Beam Area Sensor offers a minimized blind zone through a 3-point cross-beam netting method, enabling long sensing distances from 1 to 7 meters. It provides a wide range of model choices with varying optical axis counts (4 to 20), optical axis pitches (40, 80mm), and sensing widths (120 to 1,040mm). Features include an installation mode for easy setup, built-in interference protection, and a self-diagnosis function that monitors front screen contamination and optical axis obstruction, providing status feedback to external equipment. High luminance indicators on the emitter/receiver ensure easy status checks from various angles and distances. This sensor is suitable for applications such as obstacle detection for subway platform screen doors (PSD) and meets KRS Korean Railway Standards for specific models (BWC80-14HD). The protection structure is rated IP67 (IEC standard).
