1 Functional description
The MWD BP is a radar motion detector with direction identification, which has been especially designed for
applications in the area of industrial gate- and barrier systems. In some cases, the operational parameters may also
be adjusted with an infrared remote control.
Motion detection is done according to the Doppler’s principle. The sensor sends out 24 GHz microwaves. These
microwaves are reflected by objects in motion and thus their frequency changes. The sensor receives these altered
frequencies and analyses them. Thus, each motion within the detection range is recorded, analyzed by a logic and
transmitted to the gate- resp. barrier control by connecting potential-free change-over contacts.
Range of application:
Entry-/access recognition for the drive of industrial gate- and barrier systems
Special features:
• Insensitive to fluctuations of temperature and humidity
• Distinction vehicles/persons
• Suppression of cross traffic
• Object tracking for slow objects
• Reversible and cutoff direction logic
• Adjustable sensitivity
• Application specific parameter profiles
• Two channel with individual parameter setting
• Two potential-free relay contacts
• Large supply voltage range - AC or DC
• Adjustment of operational parameters by key buttons or infrared remote control and 7-segment display
• Compact plastic housing
• IP 65 housing
• Easy and fast installation with mounting bracket
