Radar sensor RMS-A
The RMS-A radar sensor serves as a motion detector for approaching objects. The detection range lies between approx. 0.5 m and 5.0 m. The range is set at the factory to the customer’s requirements and varies depending on the size, shape and speed of the moving objects.
Use on escalators and moving walks
Radar sensors from RLS Wacon detect approaching passengers on escalators and moving walks and act as direction-dependent motion detectors for the automatic activation (return to readiness) of the unit. The escalator starts as passengers approach and switches to stand-by during traffic pauses – saving energy and reducing wear. Compared with pyroelectric detectors, radar technology works in a direction-dependent manner and is less sensitive to environmental influences.

Areas of application
Field of use
The radar motion detector is used to detect approaching persons or objects – for example for motion-dependent release or start-up of escalators and moving walks as well as for access control, gate control and object detection.
Operating principle
The sensor uses radar technology (microwave) and detects approaching objects within a detection range of approx. 0.5 to 5 m. The switching function can be evaluated depending on the direction of movement. Radar is insensitive to dirt and lateral movements; concealed installation behind plastic covers is possible. The sensor is waterproof up to IP68 and maintenance-free.
Installation
- Mount the sensor in the intended position (concealed installation behind a plastic cover is possible).
- Align the sensor with the detection area (horizontal or vertical mounting).
- Wire the connection according to the pin assignment (see Technical data).
Maintenance
- The radar sensor is maintenance-free.
- If necessary, visually check the fit and connection.
Important notes
- The sensitivity is fixed at the factory (to customer specification).
- The detection range varies with the size, shape and speed of the objects.
- Connect only when de-energised.
