About Activation Sensors

 

Microwave sensors are typically used in conjunction with automatic doors to enhance their functionality and user convenience. These sensors operate by emitting microwave signals and detecting changes in the reflected signals when a person or object moves within their range. When an individual approaches the door, the microwave sensor identifies their presence based on the disturbance in the emitted signal. Upon detecting this movement, the sensor promptly sends a signal to the automatic door operator.

 

This interaction between the sensor and the door operator is crucial for initiating the door’s opening mechanism. As a result, the door smoothly opens to allow the person to pass through without requiring any physical contact. This touch-free operation is particularly beneficial in maintaining hygiene, reducing the spread of germs, and providing ease of access, especially for individuals with disabilities or those carrying heavy items.

 

Microwave sensors enhance the overall user experience by making automatic doors more responsive and efficient. They ensure that doors open promptly and reliably whenever someone approaches, without any additional effort from the user. This technology is widely used in various settings such as commercial buildings, hospitals, airports, and shopping centres, significantly improving accessibility and convenience for all visitors.

 

Activation sensors and safety sensors do not fall under the same EN16005 regulation. Read here to make sure you know what sensor type you need for your installation.
