What are photocells and why are they important?

Photocells, or safety cells, are sensor devices that detect the presence of obstacles in the path of automated gates or barriers. When an object or person interrupts the beam emitted by the photocells, the system immediately halts the gate's movement, preventing accidents and damage. These safety devices are mandatory in many automated systems, providing peace of mind and compliance with safety standards.

Benefits of installing safety cells

  • Enhanced Safety: Safety cells prevent accidents by stopping the gate's movement when an obstacle is detected, protecting people, vehicles, and the gate itself.
  • Reliable Performance: High-quality photocells from leading brands ensure consistent and dependable operation, even in challenging weather conditions.
  • Compliance with Regulations: Installing safety cells helps ensure that your automated gate system meets necessary safety regulations and standards.
