Genius VEGA BUS Photocell Sensors

Product Overview

Genius VEGA Bus Photocell Sensors are compact self-aligning infrared safety photocells for automatic gate systems in Abu Dhabi. The product code is 6100148, and the set includes a transmitter and receiver using modulated infrared rays. These photocells are designed for BUS G-WAY technology and help detect vehicles, people, or obstacles within the gate movement area. Their compact design makes them suitable for installations where space is limited. This BUS version must not be confused with the standard analogue VEGA photocell, because compatibility depends on the gate control board technology.

They should be connected with the correct two-wire BUS layout, and each photocell pair must be assigned and aligned according to the control board instructions. Professional installation is recommended because incorrect BUS wiring, poor alignment, or unsupported control boards can stop the photocells from working correctly and may affect gate safety. For technical wiring guidance, review the VEGA BUS installation instructions.
