Sensors for Automatic Door Systems
In addition to record’s ingenious mechanics, our complex electronic equipment forms the backbone of our products.
A decisive contribution to the great success of our products is the fact that record is one of the few manufacturers of automatic doors that has designed, developed and produced its control units and sensors in-house. This has enabled them to optimally fit our products already at the planning stage, resulting in perfectly coordinated control logic for our door systems.
Our sensors now do far more than just opening the door when someone approaches it. They detect precisely how fast the person is moving, suppress the opening impulse when, for example, a plant pot is in the sensor’s detection area, and protect vulnerable people from colliding with the approaching door wings.
When analyzing its immediate environment, the record RAD 290 motion detector permanently communicates with the control device. The detection field is defined electronically, allowing it to eliminate previously acquired door movements. Time-consuming mechanical fine adjustment of the sensor is thereby eliminated. Also, changes to the field due to temperature differentials are largely uncritical.
The record AIR 290 is an active infrared sensor that generates a narrow light curtain reaching to the floor. The opening impulse is triggered when an object enters the light curtain. This sensor is particularly suitable when only a small field of detection needs to be covered.

Bacteria and viruses are mainly transmitted through the hands. When the door handle turns into a germ spreader, this is a problem for companies, especially in the hygiene sector. On many everyday things like smartphones, shopping carts, light switches or door handles adhere to the unwelcome bacteria firmly. For hospitals, doctors’ surgeries, restaurants as well as the food processing industry the touchless switch is the perfect solution. Are the hands occupied with carrying shopping bags, anything else or by typing a message on the smartphone, the approach to the switch is enough and and the automatic door open.
In addition to the simple operation of the door, the record BLS 60 is hygienic to use, as at no time the skin comes into contact with the object.
The record RIC 290 sensor device uses microwave and active infrared technology. It is equipped with both a combination of motion and presence detectors that trigger opening and closing operations with a high level of security and reliability. The device actively communicates with the door control, and recognizes persons in the passage area. A light curtain also prevents collisions with the door leaves.
The record RC SWING safety sensor is directly mounted on one or both sides of swing door leaves, and functions as ride sensor. Its active infrared light curtain prevents collisions of the door leaf with persons or objects. Thanks to its slim design, it can be easily positioned on the door leaf.
The mode of operation is selected intuitively using the BDE-D electronic remote control; the display features text in the language of your choice. The convenient and user-friendly BDE-D remote control can also be used to set or modify application-specific door parameters such as opening and closing speeds, opening widths for reduced opening, duration of open times, etc.
