NICE EPMB BlueBUS Photocell Sensors UAE

The NICE EPMB BlueBUS Photocell Sensors are original NICE infrared safety devices designed for compatible automatic gate and door automation systems. Using advanced NICE BlueBUS technology, the EPMB transmitter and receiver provide reliable obstacle detection across automatic gate entrances with a working range of up to 15 metres.

Unlike conventional photocells requiring separate power and relay wiring, NICE EPMB photocells connect directly to a compatible BlueBUS control unit using only two non-polarized wires. The same two-wire connection provides power and communication, helping simplify professional gate automation installation.

With IP44 protection, automatic synchronization and a compact surface-mounted design, NICE EPMB photocells are suitable for residential, commercial and industrial automatic gate safety applications.

Technical Specifications

NICE EPMB BlueBUS Photocell Sensors

The NICE EPMB is a surface-mounted infrared photocell designed specifically for NICE automation systems equipped with BlueBUS technology.

The photocells create an infrared safety beam across the automatic gate entrance. When a person, vehicle or other obstacle interrupts the beam, the photocell system sends information to the compatible NICE control unit.

Automatic Gate Safety Sensor

Photocells are an important safety component of an automatic gate system. NICE EPMB sensors help detect obstacles within the protected gate entrance while the gate is operating.

Depending on the control-unit programming, interruption of the photocell beam can prevent closing, stop movement or cause the gate to reverse.

Up to 15 Metres Operating Range

The NICE EPMB provides an estimated operating range of up to 15 metres between the transmitter and receiver when correctly installed and aligned.

Actual performance can depend on sensor alignment, installation position and environmental conditions.

NICE BlueBUS Technology

One of the main advantages of the NICE EPMB is its BlueBUS communication technology.

BlueBUS allows compatible NICE safety and control devices to communicate with the automation control unit using a simplified two-wire connection.

Only Two Wires Required

NICE EPMB photocells connect to a compatible BlueBUS control unit using only two wires.

The BlueBUS connection supplies electrical power to the photocells and carries communication signals between the devices and the control unit through the same wiring.

Non-Polarized Wiring

The two BlueBUS wires do not require polarity to be observed during connection.

This helps simplify installation compared with conventional photocells requiring separate positive, negative and relay connections.

Automatic Photocell Synchronization

The NICE EPMB system supports automatic synchronization, helping prevent interference when multiple compatible photocell pairs are installed around the same automatic gate.

This is particularly useful for larger gate installations requiring more than one protected safety area.

IP44 Outdoor Protection

The NICE EPMB has an IP44 protection rating and is designed for outdoor automatic gate applications when correctly installed.

The compact ABS housing provides protection suitable for normal external gate automation environments.

Compact Surface-Mounted Design

With dimensions of approximately 50 × 29 × 80 mm, the NICE EPMB has a compact surface-mounted design suitable for installation on gate posts, walls and other suitable mounting surfaces.

Compatible NICE BlueBUS Gate Motors

NICE EPMB photocells can be used with compatible NICE automatic gate operators and control units equipped with a BlueBUS connection.

• NICE ROBUS sliding gate motors
• NICE RUN sliding gate motors
• Selected NICE swing gate control units
• Selected NICE garage door automation systems
• Selected NICE parking barrier control units
• Other compatible NICE BlueBUS automation systems

Compatibility should always be confirmed from the control unit rather than only from the gate motor model.

NICE EPMB for ROBUS Sliding Gate Motors

The EPMB is suitable for compatible NICE ROBUS automation systems equipped with BlueBUS technology, including selected ROBUS 400, ROBUS 600 and ROBUS 1000 configurations.

NICE EPMB for RUN Sliding Gate Motors

NICE EPMB photocells can also be connected to compatible NICE RUN sliding gate operators with a BlueBUS-enabled control system.

This makes the EPMB suitable for larger residential, commercial and industrial sliding gate installations.

Multiple Photocell Installation

Compatible NICE BlueBUS control units can manage multiple addressed BlueBUS safety devices on the same two-wire bus.

This allows additional photocell pairs to be positioned around an automatic gate where additional protected zones are required.

Photocell Alignment

For reliable operation, the EPMB transmitter and receiver should be mounted facing each other and correctly aligned.

Installation height and position should be selected according to the gate movement area and required safety protection.

Professional Installation

Professional installation is recommended for NICE EPMB photocells. Correct wiring, device addressing, positioning, alignment and control-unit recognition are important for reliable safety operation.

After installation, the photocell system should be tested through multiple complete gate opening and closing cycles to confirm correct obstacle detection.
