What are the opening configurations of PVC rapid doors?

1. Manual Opening Methods

• Pull Cord SwitchControls the door's movement via a pull rope, suitable for small warehouses or temporary passages. Low cost but less convenient.

• Manual Push ButtonA wall-mounted physical button that activates the door when pressed. Ideal for areas with frequent manual access but no need for automation.

2. Automatic Sensor-Based Opening

• Radar Sensor (Microwave Sensor)

◦ Principle: Detects moving objects (e.g., vehicles, people) with an adjustable range (typically 3-8 meters).

◦ Applications: Logistics passages, garage entrances; fast response time (0.3-1 second).

• Inductive Loop (Ground Sensor)

◦ Principle: Buried coil detects metal objects (e.g., vehicles), requiring ground installation.

◦ Advantage: Strong anti-interference, suitable for factory vehicle passages.

• Infrared Beam Sensor

◦ Principle: Triggered by beam interruption, high safety, commonly used in cleanrooms or areas requiring anti-pinch protection.

◦ Note: Avoid strong light interference; requires frequent maintenance.

3. Remote Control Opening

• Wireless Remote Control

◦ Common frequencies: 433MHz or 2.4GHz, control range of 20-50 meters, supports multiple remotes.

◦ Suitable for forklift operators or high-position operations.

• Mobile App/Bluetooth Control

◦ Enables remote control via IoT modules and can integrate with smart systems.

4. Interlocking Control Systems

• Equipment/Access Control Integration

◦ Connects via PLC or relay to production lines or fire safety systems for automatic operation (e.g., triggered by conveyor systems).

• Dual-Door Interlock

◦ Prevents simultaneous opening of two doors, used in cleanrooms or temperature-controlled areas.

5. Safety Features

• Photoelectric Sensor: Infrared light curtains on door frames stop or reverse the door upon detecting obstacles.

• Bottom Safety Edge: Immediate rebound if the door contacts an obstacle at the bottom.

• Emergency Stop Button: Instantly halts operation in emergencies.

6. Other Advanced Functions

• Soft Start/Stop: Motor speed control reduces impact, extending lifespan.

• Backup Power Supply: UPS ensures manual operation during power outages.

• Speed Adjustment: Adjusts door speed (typically 0.6-1.5 m/s) based on usage frequency.

Selection Recommendations

• Industrial Settings: Radar sensor + remote control + photoelectric safety for efficiency and security.

• Cleanrooms: Infrared beam + interlock system to prevent contamination.

• High-Frequency Use: Servo motor + frequency conversion control to minimize wear.

1. Standard Opening Styles

Q1: What are the common opening configurations for PVC rapid doors?

A: The most widely used options include:

• Roll-up (Vertical Lift) – Curtain rolls upward into a compact coil (standard for most industrial applications).

• Fold-up (Bi-Parting) – Curtain splits horizontally and folds upward (ideal for low-ceiling spaces).

• Side-Sliding – Curtain moves horizontally along a track (suitable for wide openings with limited overhead space).

2. Customizable Options

Q2: Can the opening direction be reversed (e.g., outward instead of upward)?

A: Yes, doors can be configured for:

• Reverse Rolling (curtain coils downward)

• Left/Right-Sided Drive (motor placement adjustment)

3. High-Frequency & Automated Options

Q3: What configurations suit high-traffic areas?

A:

• Fast-Rolling (1.5–2.0 m/s) with radar/inductive loop triggers.

• Double Curtain (Airlock) – Two doors in sequence for temperature-controlled zones.

4. Space-Saving Designs

Q4: What options are available for low headroom areas?

A:

• Low-Profile Fold-Up (requires only 20–30 cm overhead space).

• Horizontal Sliding (zero overhead clearance needed).

5. Safety & Access Configurations

Q5: How are doors configured for safety in pedestrian zones?

A:

• Slow-Start/Slow-Stop modes near walkways.

• Transparent Curtain Panels (30–50% visibility) for forklift traffic areas.

6. Special Environment Adaptations

Q6: What configurations work for extreme conditions?

A:

• Insulated Roll-Up for freezers (–30°C).

• Explosion-Proof Side-Slide for hazardous areas.
