Rollkit FT-12 photocells, range 12 m, rotatable through 180°, relay

The Rollkit FT-12 are photocells with a transmitter and a receiver that face each other on either side of the passage. When someone or something interrupts the beam, the operator stops or reverses the gate. The photocell head rotates through ±90°, so you can screw it directly onto the gate post, even without a bracket.

Wiring

• Power supply – 12–24 V AC/DC from the operator control unit.
• Output – jumper JP2 in the receiver: NC position = normally closed contact, NO = normally open contact. Maximum relay load 1 A / 30 V DC.
• Fuse – the photocells have none; switch off the power supply before wiring.

Installation

• Mount the photocells more than 20 cm above the ground; the distance between them should be more than 50 cm.
• Do not mount the receiver on the side facing direct sunlight.
• Wire two pairs side by side crosswise: on one side the transmitter of the first pair and the receiver of the second pair.
• While the LED on the receiver is lit, the photocells are not correctly aligned.

You will find the reflective version with wiring on one side only under the name Rollkit FTO-15, and other types in the photocells category. Send questions to eshop@saver.sk.
