LCN 8310 Activation/Safety Sensor Package for 8310 Series Actuator

The LCN Header Mounted Safety Sensor (HMSS) (8310-877) is a self-monitored ready overhead-mounted diffused active infrared sensing device that provides detection for the triggering of automatic swing door safety functions. When used with LCN's lockout devices, the sensor is programmed to allow two different fields of detection - one for detection when the door is in the fully closed position and the other for detection when the door is fully open. While the door is in the fully open position, the HMSS extends its coverage back through the threshold area of the doorway, to provide coverage that will overlap with LCN's motion sensors.

As with all of LCN's programmable sensing devices, full adjustability is achieved with the use of LCN's hand-held remote control unit. This allows alteration of all of the available functions as well as for inquiry of existing settings. Should the need arise; the HMSS may also be tuned by means of two sensor-mounted buttons contained on the PC Board within the unit. With these two buttons, the sensor's field of detection can be altered without the use of the hand-held remote. If a complete Door-Mounted Safety Sensor (DMSS) system is not used in addition to the Header Mounted Safety Sensor, LCN recommends the use of a lockout safety beam to allow safety signaling if the zone is entered during a door closing cycle
