In facilities and public places used by an unspecified number of people, there is a growing resistance to touching shared facilities and equipment that people come into contact with frequently (doorknobs, light switches, elevator buttons, parking ticket issuing machines, multistory parking garages, signal push buttons, public restrooms, trash cans, etc.).
Demand for such "touch-free" technology is expected to grow even more in the future and become a standard commodity and product in the world.
New lifestyles" have already become a part of everyday life, and people's awareness and behavior are being updated on a daily basis, just as technology is rapidly evolving with the Corona Disaster. That is why we will work together with our customers to propose the best solutions to their issues. Toward the realization of a safer, more secure, and more comfortable society.
Near-infrared diffuse reflection is used as detection method, and the detection distance can be adjusted.
The unique lens structure limits the detection range to the front of the product to prevent false triggering.
IDEC's touchless switches feature mutual interference prevention.
By shifting the wavelength slightly from the signal of adjacent touchless switches, false detection can be suppressed and malfunctions due to interference from infrared devices can be prevented.
If a light from a different projection than its own enters the light, it will not be affected as long as it is limited to two units (one in addition to itself).
When three or more units are used, the recommended values are a mounting pitch of 50 mm vertically and 30 mm horizontally in accordance with IEC60947-5-1.
Many situations make it difficult to press a switch near a parking ticket issuing machine or a traffic light pushbutton, such as when a person is unable to pull over, uses a wheelchair or assistive device, or has a disability that prevents the person from acting or moving.
Protective structure: IP65/67, UL Type 4X (Outdoor) certified and made of weather-resistant resin material for outdoor use.
Malfunction due to sunlight is not a risk because the lens is tinted to cut visible light, and our sensor, the small photoelectric switch SA2E type with built-in amplifier, has a proven track record in preventing ambient light.
