Product Description

An amplifier that is specially tailored to operate in car washes (washing gantries and car wash plants).

The special programming of this device enables perfect operation in the difficult environmental conditions that exist in the car wash industry. In particular, there are problems with wet and specular walls and floors, reflective vehicle roofs or sudden spray. On one hand, the device is sensitive enough to detect curved windshields and on the other, it is powerful enough for wheel detection during simultaneous high pressure under body and side washing.

At the push of a button, the device shows information about sensor alignment and wiring, such as wire breakage and short-circuits. The fourfold frequency change-over is useful to decouple nearby light barriers. Four level settings allow an adjustment to different operating conditions.

The alarm output indicates that the sensors are too contaminated. This compact single-channel amplifier must be mounted on a 11-pin DIN rail socket. A relay output for high switching loads is included.
