Product Overview
Increase safety and reliability on your automated driveway gate with the Ghost Controls Smart Power Photo Eye Sensor. Designed for dependable, fail‑safe operation, this photo eye creates a protective infrared beam across your gate opening. When the beam is interrupted, the system signals your opener to stop or reverse, helping prevent accidents and damage.
Engineered for outdoor performance, the weather‑resistant housing stands up to sun, rain, and dust, while adjustable axes make alignment fast and precise—even on uneven posts or long runs. The Smart Power design draws low‑voltage power from compatible Ghost Controls control boards (no external power supply needed in most installs), streamlining wiring and setup.
