The high quality and reliable Nice EPM photocells are part of the Nice Era mid size photocell range.
These universal relay photocells are desirable for being compatible with most gate / garage door automation systems. They also have a highly resistant ABS body that gives them strength and durability in all conditions.
Photocells are an important part of any automatic gate / garage door installation as they increase safety by detecting obstacles between them to stop the automation system from operating and prevent accidents, injury or worse.
An ideal installation would have at least two sets of photocells installed, typically to protect both entrance and exit through the gate / garage door. As most gate automation kits in particular commonly include only one pair of photocells as standard, this is why purchasing an extra pair of photocells is a worthwhile investment for safety and piece of mind.
