IRB-325

IRB-325 Infrared Photoeye Overview

The IRB-325 is an external entrapment protection device, type B1, non-contact sensor for use with automatic gates and doors. This thru beam photoeye is powered by 12 VDC to 24 VAC and has an operating range up to 65 ft.

This photoeye is certified UL325-2018 compliant with operators that require NC monitoring.

The IRB-325’s powder coated steel hoods help protect against environmental exposure and accidental contact damage from vehicles and other equipment. A NEMA 4X enclosure provides the durability required for safety applications.
