IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING - Not following these instructions may cause severe injury or death to persons.

NOTE - This type of installation DOES NOT reverse the gate all the way back to its limits when the photo-beam is obstructed. This installation is only to protect against entrapment and to comply with UL325.

Photo Beam (non-contact sensor) Installation

Secondary Entrapment Protection

Photo beams or like must be installed to reduce the risk of entrapment.

Use only Omron E3K-R10K4 photoelectric eye to comply with UL325

Make the electrical connections of the photoelectric sensor as described here in this page.

Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle, trips the sensor while the gate is still moving, and

One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapmentor obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier.
