The "HM-S6" is an embedded park sensor that detects vehicles through changes in magnetic flux and responds to various situations from passing to stationary vehicles. It can be used for the opening and closing of input doors at waste treatment plants, as well as for gates that vehicles pass through and outdoor parking applications. It can also be installed on rebar and steel plates. 【Features】 ■ Resistant to the effects of natural environments such as rain, snow, temperature changes, and geomagnetism ■ Protection rating IP68 reduces the risk of water ingress ■ Ten times the load capacity compared to conventional embedded park sensors (based on our comparison) ■ Can distinguish between vehicles even when they pass continuously ■ Can be installed on rebar and steel plates *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made bed exit sensors wireless, allowing them to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensor wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. This helps prevent accidents caused by falls, slips, or wandering, contributing to the efficiency of medical operations. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ Bed exit sensors notify wirelessly in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with one receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

The seismic sensor device "HK-2" detects strong tremors equivalent to a seismic intensity of 5 or higher, transmits a signal to the control room, and emergency stops the facility equipment. 【Installation Location】 Automotive parts factory 【Challenges】 Due to the maintenance and replacement of the factory equipment control devices, we considered updating the existing seismic sensors as well, but since production had already ended, we were looking for alternatives. 【Effects After Installation】 The HK-2 has the function to emergency stop equipment during an earthquake, and since its functionality is the same as the existing device, it was introduced as a replacement. Its compact size also allowed it to fit within the existing control panel being used. ★See more examples of the seismic sensor device "HK-2" https://www.hotron.co.jp/recommend/HK-2_lp.html#anchor_a04 ◎For more details, please download the materials or contact us.
