About this item

  • Reliable Infrared Sensor - TOPENS TC102 Photo Eye Beam Sensor is a photoelectric sensor that uses infrared light to detect the presence or absence of objects. It creates a safety barrier that identifies any movement between the emitter and receiver. Once the infrared beam is blocked, it perfectly makes the gate stop or reverse automatically. It is strongly recommended to use the TC102 IR beam sensor with automatic gate opener system to ensure multiple protection & security.
  • Clever Design - The infrared photocell sensor consists of two components: an emitter and a receiver. The emitter is designed to generate an infrared light beam. The receiver is used to detect any interruptions. This non-contact sensing technology provides high detection accuracy with a fast response. In addition, the infrared beam sensor is immune to strong light interference, such as sunlight and vehicle headlights. Weather resistant for all seasons of the year.
  • Wide Compability - Works with all the TOPENS gate openers. Compatible with most third party swing / sliding gate opener or garage door opener whose control board accepts “Normal Open or Normal Close Dry Contact” signal. It can be powered by the control board of the gate opener or by the external 12-24VDC or 12-24VAC power source. This security infrared sensor is commonly used for the household, courtyard, farm, ranch, warehouse and other commercial / industrial sites.
  • Easy DIY Installation - Connect both the receiver and the emitter to the gate opener system. It is suggested to mount the photocell sensor at least 8" (20cm) above the ground. Power on to determine the emitter position. The photocell status LED turns off indicating that the beam is aligned. Fix the emitter position when the status LED goes off. Ensure that there is no obstruction between the receiver and the emitter during alignment.
  • Customer Service and Technical Support - All the TOPENS products come with a 12-month war-ranty against defects, a 30-day worry-free exchange & return and lifetime tech support. Visit TOPENS website for the user manual, installation video, and personalized service. TOPENS is ready to offer professional solutions for any questions or assistance.

I couldn’t be more impressed with my Topens Gate Opener! The installation was straightforward, and the system runs smoothly and quietly. The build quality is solid, and the smart features like remote control and auto-close are incredibly convenient. It has handled my heavy-duty gate effortlessly, even during bad weather.What really stood out was their customer support—quick, detailed, and extremely helpful. They answered all my questions with clear instructions and went above and beyond. Top-notch performance, reliability, and service—highly recommend!

The TOPENS TC102 Infrared Beam Sensor has been a lifesaver for gate safety. It detects motion perfectly, stopping the gate if anything’s in the way, which is a huge relief with kids and pets around. Setup was easy, and it’s worked flawlessly, rain or shine. A simple, reliable upgrade I’m so glad I added!

The price is great and the product is great. The installation it comes with doesn’t give you much information. The installation to the gate opener doesn’t give you much either and the wiring diagram wasn’t help. I watched the installation of the gate opener on YouTube and took screen shots of the wiring diagram. It worked. It’s a challenge if you don’t know much about electrical. Their customer service will help you. They do have great customer service.

These photocells hook up directly to the Topens motor very easily. I have a set installed well over a year ago and haven't experienced any issues.

The wiring was a little tight because of the compact size but they go together as they should and they work perfectly.
