BEA FALCON EX Industrial Motion Sensors
Motion Sensor with Explosion-Proof/Flame-Proof Housing
BEA’s FALCON EX combines a microwave activation sensor with an explosion-proof / flame-proof housing, which is ideal for use in unique environments such as chemical manufacturing, petroleum refining, and agriculture.
The FALCON EX can be mounted from 11 ½ feet to 23 feet to fit any industrial application. For lower mounting heights, BEA’s FALCON EX XL can be mounted from 6 ½ feet to 11 ½ feet. The FALCON EX WIDE is available for wide detection fields, with a mounting height range of 11 ½ feet to 21 feet.
The explosion-proof / flame-proof housing is a NEMA 4X, water-proof rated enclosure designed as an IP66 housing. This housing achieves UL Class I, Div. 1, Groups B, C, D; Class II, Div. 1 & 2, Groups E, F, G; and Class III.
Features
- Energy savings - Bidirectional, unidirectional approach, and unidirectional depart microwave detection options.
- Adjustable detection settings - Six modes of detection filtering for pedestrian and parallel traffic rejection.
- Easy to program - Remote control programming enables users to quickly and safely make changes from the ground.
- Explosion-proof and highly durable - Explosion-proof / flame-proof housing weighs 11 pounds.
