PRESENCE SENSOR
The BEA Bodyguard III Presence Sensor (10BODYGUARDIII) is a self-monitored ready overhead-mounted diffused active
infrared sensing device that provides detection for the triggering of automatic swing door safety functions. This sensor is
designed for use with all of BEA’s LO-21 modules, as well as the Parallink and LO-Linx. When used with BEA’s lockout
devices, the sensor is programmed to allow two different fields of detection - one for detection when the door is in the fully
closed position and the other for detection when the door is fully open. While the door is in the fully open position, the
Bodyguard extends its coverage back through the threshold area of the doorway, to provide coverage that will overlap with
BEA’s motion sensors.
As with all of BEA’s programmable sensing devices, full adjustability is achieved with the use of BEA’s hand-held remote
control unit. This allows alteration of all of the available functions as well as for inquiry of existing settings. Should the need
arise; the Bodyguard may also be tuned by means of two sensor-mounted buttons contained on the PC Board within the
unit. With these two buttons, the Bodyguard’s field of detection can be altered without the use of the hand-held remote. If a
complete door-mounted sensor (SuperScan) system is not used in addition to the Bodyguard, BEA, Inc. recommends the
use of a lockout safety beam to allow safety signaling if the zone is entered during a door closing cycle.
