BEA LZR-H100 Laser Scanner for Gate & Barrier Vehicle Detection

Laser Vehicle Detection Sensor for Gate & Barrier Applications

The BEA LZR-H100 is a laser-based Time-of-Flight vehicle detection sensor designed for automatic gate and barrier systems requiring accurate, non-intrusive vehicle detection. Using four configurable laser curtains, the LZR-H100 creates a three-dimensional detection zone that supports both motion and presence detection for reliable gate activation and hold-open logic.

This sensor is a practical alternative to inductive loop detectors in applications where cutting pavement is impractical, prohibited, or cost-prohibitive. Housed in a rugged NEMA 4 / IP65 enclosure, the LZR-H100 is built for consistent outdoor performance in demanding access control environments.
