Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi PB11CNT15WE Through-Beam Photoelectric Emitter?
The Carlo Gavazzi PB11CNT15WE is a compact through-beam photoelectric emitter designed for wireless entrapment protection systems used on industrial doors and gates. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi PB11 series, it operates with the corresponding receiver to create a dependable photoelectric beam for detecting objects or obstructions across an entrance or protected area.
The PB11CNT15WE provides a rated sensing distance of up to 15 m in industrial door applications and features a narrow 4° optical angle to support accurate alignment. Its compact Ø11 mm cylindrical housing allows the emitter to be installed discreetly in door and gate structures where available mounting space is limited.
Designed specifically for Carlo Gavazzi wireless entrapment protection equipment, the PB11CNT15WE is powered from the compatible sub-controller rather than functioning as a standalone switching sensor. Its durable PA6 housing, integral 2 m cable and IP67 protection provide a robust sensing solution for demanding powered-access installations.

Reliable Entrapment Protection for Powered Doors and Gates
Through-beam photoelectric protection uses separate emitter and receiver units positioned opposite one another. The PB11CNT15WE generates the sensing beam while the corresponding receiver monitors its presence, allowing the connected protection system to identify when a person, vehicle or other obstruction interrupts the beam path.
The PB11 system is specifically suited to powered entrance applications where compact sensing components and reliable obstruction detection are required. Its narrow optical angle, small Ø11 mm housing and IP67 construction enable discreet integration into industrial doors and gates while the associated wireless controller simplifies connection to the moving edge of the installation.
Typical Applications
- Industrial door entrapment protection.
- Powered gate safety systems.
- Automatic entrance and access-control equipment.
- Obstruction detection across door openings.
- Wireless safety-edge and protection systems.
- Commercial and industrial powered entrances.
