NICE EPM ERA M Photocells (Transmitter + Receiver) - Modulated Infrared, 15m Range, IP44

The NICE EPM ERA M photocells are a high-performance pair of modulated infrared safety beams designed for gate and door automation systems. This set includes both transmitter and receiver, providing reliable detection up to 15 meters. Ideal for residential and light commercial applications, they ensure safe operation by detecting obstacles in the path of moving gates or doors.

Advantages

Modulated infrared technology minimizes false triggers from ambient light. The anti-glare synchronization circuit allows multiple pairs to be installed without interference. IP44 protection ensures durability in outdoor environments. Easy surface mounting with compact dimensions (80x50x29mm per unit).
