Description
The PE12 actives a relay when the beam is crossed. The photoelectric beam works with any automatic gate/door controllers cards and is used as a safety device to control gates and doors.
The PE12 works on infrared technology and is capable of switching loads of 1 Amp on 30 volts. Its low standby current consumption makes it ideal for automatic gates and doors operating on solar power.

Installation
- Find a suitable location to install the sensor. The transmitter and receiver should be in line of sight and access the road or driveway.
- Remove the cover from both the transmitter and receiver.
- Power ON the transmitter and receiver and test if your location is suitable.
- On power up the Red LED will be constantly ON when both the transmitter and receiver are within range.
- If the receiver LED blinks or switches OFF, this indicates that the transmitter is out of range or obscured.
- When locations are finalised un-screw the printed circuit board from the plastic case and mount the case in its location.
- After mounting the case screw back the printed circuit board. Set the sensitivity and the desired relay output (NC or NO). See block diagram below.
- Place the cover back over the transmitter and receiver with the rubber o-ring inserted.
