Description
The MEK Activation Sensor is a unidirectional microwave Doppler radar that opens industrial automatic doors for approaching traffic. It can detect all targets or be set to filter out pedestrians so only vehicles trigger the door, and it ignores cross-traffic to cut unnecessary openings and closing delays. MEK Uganda supplies it for warehouses, logistics centres and loading docks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the sensor ignore pedestrians?
Yes. It can be configured to filter out people so that only vehicles activate the door.
How large is the detection area?
About 4 × 5 m at a 7 m mounting height and 4 × 2 m at 3.5 m.
Is pricing available online?
Pricing depends on door size, configuration and accessories. Contact MEK Uganda for a quotation tailored to your opening.
