Optex Reaction Two Microwave Motion Sensor

Product Description

The OPTEX REACTION TWO is a microwave motion sensor designed for driveway and perimeter detection applications. Microwave-based sensors detect movement by emitting continuous microwave signals and measuring the reflected frequency shift caused by a moving target. Unlike passive infrared sensors, microwave technology penetrates non-metallic materials and performs reliably across a wide range of ambient temperatures. This unit is typically installed by security and low-voltage electricians, or experienced facilities maintenance technicians managing access control and alert systems.

The REACTION TWO is suited for driveway sensor applications where reliable vehicle or pedestrian detection is required. Microwave sensors in this category are commonly deployed at residential driveways, commercial entry points, and gated access lanes. The sensor can be positioned to cover a defined detection zone and trigger alerts, gate controls, or alarm panels upon detecting motion within range.

• Sold as a single unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade sensor for microwave-based driveway detection systems. No specific compatible model numbers were provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage electrician or security systems technician. De-energize the associated control panel or receiver before making any wiring connections. Follow local low-voltage wiring codes and the manufacturer instructions for mounting height, detection angle, and zone adjustment. Avoid installing in locations with excessive vibration or interference from other microwave-emitting devices.
