PD180 Battery-Powered Infrared Sensor – Long-Range Photoelectric Beam with Easy Alignment

The PD180 Sensor is a long-range infrared photoelectric sensor designed for reliable detection and safety in access control and door automation applications. Thanks to its battery-powered emitter, the PD180 simplifies installation by eliminating the need for cabling on one side. Ideal for industrial and commercial use, this sensor provides precise and stable performance over distances up to 30 meters (100 feet).

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Battery-Powered Emitter for Easy Installation:
    No wiring required to the emitter side, making setup faster and more flexible, especially across wide entrances.

  • Flexible Lens Adjustment:
    Emitter and receiver lenses can be adjusted 200° horizontally and ±30° vertically for easy and precise mechanical alignment.

  • Advanced Optical Design:
    Features a modern aspherical lens, improving detection stability and eliminating issues caused by corrosion or dust build-up—common in older parabolic designs.

  • Wide Detection Range:
    Adjustable for distances up to 30 meters (100 feet), suitable for a variety of applications including sliding gates, roller shutters, and commercial doorways.

  • Reliable Output:
    Equipped with SPDT relay outputs (1A resistive load) for dependable detection signal transmission.
