IR-20 Infrared Beam Sensor for Barrier Gate Safety - 20m Detection, IP65 Waterproof (CE/FCC Certified)

The IR-20 Infrared Beam Sensor is engineered to deliver unmatched safety and reliability for barrier gates, parking systems, and automated access control. Designed to prevent accidents and equipment damage, this sensor creates an invisible infrared beam with a 20-meter detection range, ensuring precise detection of vehicles, pedestrians, or obstacles in the gate’s path. Its IP65 waterproof and dustproof rating makes it ideal for outdoor installations, withstanding rain, snow, and extreme temperatures (-10°C to +60°C). Certified by CE and FCC, the IR-20 meets rigorous international safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards, guaranteeing compliance for global deployments. Whether used in commercial parking lots, industrial facilities, or residential complexes, this sensor provides a critical safety layer by instantly triggering gate reversal or alarm systems when the beam is interrupted. The rugged ABS+PC UV-resistant housing ensures long-term durability, resisting corrosion and degradation even in harsh sunlight or humid environments.

Equipped with dual 12/24V AC/DC power compatibility, the IR-20 seamlessly integrates into existing systems without requiring specialized voltage converters. Its high-precision infrared beam technology minimizes false triggers caused by ambient light interference, delivering consistent performance in challenging conditions like fog, dust, or direct sunlight. The sensor’s 500mA@48V relay output enables direct connectivity to gate controllers, alarms, or emergency stop mechanisms, ensuring rapid response times (≤0.1 seconds) to prevent collisions or entrapment. For flexible installation, the IR-20 operates effectively at low heights (20-40cm), making it perfect for low-profile barrier arms or sliding doors. Maintenance is simplified thanks to its low-power design (TX: ≤25mA, RX: ≤35mA) and modular TX/RX units, which allow easy alignment adjustments without disassembling the entire system. Applications extend beyond barrier gates—use it for warehouse overhead doors, security checkpoints, or automated toll booths where reliable detection is non-negotiable. Engineers and installers praise its plug-and-play setup and clear LED status indicators, which streamline troubleshooting and reduce downtime. Upgrade your safety infrastructure with the IR-20, the trusted choice for industrial, commercial, and smart city projects demanding precision, durability, and compliance.
