The Photocell Kit Retroreflective 40' Sensing Distance (E3K) is a heavy-duty industrial-grade safety photo eye designed for use on garage doors, gate operators, and commercial door systems requiring long-range obstruction detection. This system uses a retroreflective sensing method, meaning only one side of the installation is wired, with a reflector mounted opposite the sensor for reliable beam return and detection.
Engineered for demanding environments, the E3K photo eye provides a 40-foot sensing range, making it ideal for wide driveway gates, large commercial entrances, and high-traffic overhead door systems. It is commonly used as a UL325-compliant entrapment protection device, ensuring safe operation by detecting vehicles, people, or objects in the door’s path and triggering stop/reverse functions.
Built with a rugged industrial housing, this photocell system is designed to perform in outdoor conditions with resistance to dust, moisture, and temperature extremes. The included reflector ensures stable alignment and consistent performance even in challenging lighting environments.
