BEA BEAMBOX Sensor with Cable | BEA-10BEAMBOX
Active Infrared Motion and Presence Sensor
BEA’s BEAMBOX is a universal sensor ideal for a variety of unique off-door applications.
The BEAMBOX provides motion and presence detection, utilizing 15 active infrared spots that can be programmed into nine uniquely shaped detection zones.
BEA’s BEAMBOX is ideal when very specific detection patterns are required, but not readily available in off-the-shelf sensors. These patterns are often necessary for trains, buses, turnstiles, back office retail, and other unique areas.
The BEAMBOX provides a DRY contact relay that can be used to switch any peripheral device, such as a buzzer, light, or video camera.
Features
- Off-door presence detection - Three rows of five infrared spots ideal for unique off-door applications.
- Customizable to your application - Typical detection area of 3 ¼ × 3 ¼ feet when mounted at a height of 7 feet
- Low profile design - Recessed mounting for low-profile applications
- Multiple preset detection zones - Four infrared immunity modes and nine unique preset patterns are available
