Full text manual (for reference)
Product specification sheet for OPTEX Photoelectric Beam Towers, including the AX-TW100, AX-TW200, and AX-TW200M — job-specific towers that host up to four Optex photobeams (Tx/Rx pairs) plus Heater, Power Supply, and Tamper accessories to build a complete wireless perimeter security solution with no trenching or wiring required.
Overview
OPTEX Photobeam Towers let you build a custom perimeter security solution. Start with either a double-sided, free-standing tower (AX-TW100 or AX-TW200) or a single-sided, wall-mount tower (AX-TW200M), then add any combination of Heater, Power Supply, Tamper, and Photobeam. Both towers accommodate the AX-100TFR, AX-200TFR, and SL-350QFR wireless beams to create a completely secure perimeter with no trenching or wiring. With a provided site plan, OPTEX can build and customize towers to your application and ship them to the job site for easy, time-saving installation.
