L36 is an innovative photocell based on time-of-flight (ToF) laser technology, designed for use on gates as a security device.
Compared to traditional photocells, it does not require two devices or reflectors. L36 uses a laser rangefinder to measure the distance to an obstacle.
The photocell can be used in 3 diff erent modes:
Mode A
OPERATION AS A PHOTOCELL
This mode requires a fixed physical reference point opposite the laser rangefinder. Maximum detection distance: 9 m.
The photocell analyses two events. Obstacle detection at shorter distance than the stored distance, during the learning phase.
Mode B
OPERATION AS A PROXIMITY SENSOR (APPROACH PERPENDICULAR TO THE LASER BEAM)
Maximum reading distance 6 m, optimised for detecting movements perpendicular to the beam.
The reading distance is programmable and can be adjusted in increments of 0.5 m during programming.
Mode C
OPERATION AS A SENSOR APPROACHING THE PHOTOCELL FROM ANY DIRECTION
Maximum reading distance 6 m, optimised for detecting movements approaching the photocell from any direction.
The reading distance is programmable and can be adjusted in increments of 0.5 m during programming.
