Hands Free Sensor (Illuminated) Stainless Steel – “Touch Free Exit”

In an era where hygiene and touch reduction are paramount, the touch free exit sensor replaces traditional push buttons with advanced infrared (IR) technology. By simply waving a hand within 5cm to 20cm of the faceplate, the touch free exit sensor triggers the door’s locking mechanism without any physical contact. This makes the touch free exit sensor the premier choice for hospitals, laboratories, food preparation areas, and high-end office lobbies where reducing the spread of bacteria and viruses is a top priority.

Constructed from Grade 304 brushed stainless steel or high-impact polycarbonate, the touch free exit sensor is designed for both durability and aesthetic appeal. Its solid-state design means there are no moving parts to wear out, significantly increasing the lifespan of the hardware compared to mechanical switches. Whether integrated into a standalone door or a complex networked access control system, the touch free exit sensor provides a seamless, sophisticated user experience.

Why “No-Touch” Technology is the Industry Standard

The touch free exit sensor combines high-speed detection with intuitive visual feedback to ensure efficient traffic flow.

• Contactless Infrared Detection: The touch free exit sensor utilizes active IR to sense motion, eliminating the need for physical pressure.

• Adjustable Proximity Range: Most touch free exit sensor units allow the installer to fine-tune the detection distance to prevent accidental triggers in narrow corridors.

• Dual-Color LED Halo: Features a high-visibility LED ring that typically changes from Blue (Standby) to Green (Active) to confirm the door has been released.

• Vandal-Resistant Stainless Steel: The faceplate is built to withstand heavy use and is easy to sanitize with standard medical-grade cleaners.

• Selectable Relay Output: Includes COM/NO/NC terminals, making the touch free exit sensor compatible with maglocks, electric strikes, and automatic door operators.

• Adjustable Delay Timer: Integrated “Door Open” timers (typically 0.5 to 20 seconds) allow the touch free exit sensor to hold the lock open for a specific duration.

• Universal 12/24V DC Input: Operates on standard security power supplies with low current consumption.

Technical Specifications

Professional Installation for Optimal Detection

When installing a touch free exit sensor, the angle of the sensor is critical. It should be mounted at an ergonomic height (approx. 1000mm to 1200mm) and positioned away from direct sunlight or powerful halogen lamps, which can sometimes interfere with infrared sensitivity.

Because the touch free exit sensor requires constant power for the IR beam and LED halo, ensure your power supply has sufficient capacity for both the lock and the sensor. For high-security environments, we recommend pairing the touch free exit sensor with a physical Emergency Break-Glass unit to ensure a secondary fail-safe path for egress during a power or sensor failure. Modernize your entryway with a touch free exit sensor—the ultimate marriage of hygiene, convenience, and security.
