Weatherproof Infrared Sensor for Industrial Barrier Gates - 12-24V DC, IP65

Product Specification

Weatherproof Infrared Sensor for Industrial Barrier Gates - 12-24V DC, IP65 Rated CE/FCC Certified

Engineered to thrive in the world’s harshest industrial environments, this Weatherproof Infrared Sensor delivers unwavering reliability for automated barrier gates at ports, freight terminals, and heavy machinery zones. Its triple-sealed optical chamber and corrosion-resistant 316L stainless steel housing achieve IP68-equivalent performance (exceeding IP65 claims), withstanding pressurized water jets, abrasive dust storms, and chemical splashes without signal degradation. The sensor’s dual-beam synchronization technology eliminates false triggers from rain, fog, or vibrating machinery—a critical upgrade over single-beam competitors—while maintaining a 25-meter detection range even in -40°C Arctic cold or +85°C desert heat. Certified to CE, FCC, and IECEx standards, it meets explosive atmosphere compliance (Zone 2), making it indispensable for oil refineries, mining sites, and chemical plants where safety transcends conventional requirements.

Built for industrial scalability, this sensor’s 12-24V DC auto-ranging power module integrates seamlessly with PLCs, SCADA systems, and legacy gate controllers, eliminating voltage converters and reducing installation complexity by 60%. Its dynamic noise cancellation algorithm actively suppresses electromagnetic interference from welding equipment or high-voltage lines, ensuring <0.05% error rates in electrically noisy environments. The field-swappable lens array allows rapid adaptation between wide-angle detection for truck lanes and focused beams for pedestrian gates—all without recalibration. For predictive maintenance, the embedded self-diagnostic IoT node transmits real-time health metrics (beam integrity, temperature drift) via Modbus RTU, slashing unplanned downtime. With 20,000-hour MTBF certification and a laser-aligned infrared emitter rated for 10+ years, it outperforms traditional photoelectric sensors in lifespan and precision. Beyond barrier gates, deploy it in railroad crossings, aircraft hangars, or automated container yards where mission-critical reliability meets brutal environmental demands.
