The anti-drop collision radar sensor is a critical safety upgrade for any barrier gate system, whether using lighter plastic-cased arms or heavy-duty steel booms. This sensor’s advanced algorithms are programmed to recognize the presence of a vehicle beneath the gate and maintain an 'open' status until the path is entirely clear. By preventing the boom arm from dropping prematurely, the sensor eliminates the risk of expensive gate damage and associated liability. The system’s high-frequency radar technology is resistant to the effects of extreme temperatures, making it a reliable solution for year-round operation in various climates. With a straightforward universal mounting system, it integrates quickly with almost any barrier gate controller, offering immediate safety benefits with minimal setup time.
Anti-Drop Collision Radar Sensor for Plastic and Steel Barrier Gates Protection — radar sensor for barriers by Baroxon® for barrier safety.
Anti-Drop Collision Radar Sensor for Plastic and Steel Barrier Gates Protection is a radar sensor for barriers manufactured by Baroxon® in its own factory and aimed at barrier safety and vehicle detection. It is the right choice when the project needs to prevent the barrier from closing on a vehicle or a pedestrian. In standard configuration it offers Protection rating IP66 / IP67 for outdoor use; Power supply 12–24 V DC. Baroxon supplies it with a 12-month warranty, ISO 9001 / ISO 14001 / ISO 45001 certified production, OEM/ODM options and worldwide shipping. Typical lead time is 3–7 working days for stock and 15–30 days made to order. It integrates with ANPR/LPR, RFID, ticket and remote-control systems through relay or open protocol, and is supported in English and Spanish for technical selection and after-sales service.
The values below describe the standard configuration. Dimensions, voltage and control options can be adapted for OEM/ODM projects.
| Detection range | 0.5–9 m, adjustable |
|---|---|
| Detection angle | Adjustable horizontally and vertically |
| Technology | Doppler microwave radar |
| Protection rating | IP66 / IP67 for outdoor use |
| Power supply | 12–24 V DC |
| Operating temperature | −30 °C to +70 °C |
Test conditions: Radar sensor mounted on a post at 1.2 m, 3.5 m lane, detection of light vehicles and moving pedestrians at different speeds, outdoor test between −5 °C and 40 °C with light rain.
Measured values: Stable detection range of 7 m for a light vehicle and 2.5 m for a pedestrian; response time 35 ms; no false detections across 500 consecutive passages; consumption 1.8 W.
Benchmark: Mid-range radar sensors on the market detect at 4–6 m with response times of 60–120 ms. The tested model extends the range to 7 m and responds 42–70% faster than that reference.

Factory bench data, measured on a standard production unit. Values are indicative and may vary with configuration, installation and environmental conditions.
It detects vehicles or people in the barrier zone to prevent closing on the vehicle and improve safety.
Yes. Outdoor models have IP66/IP67 protection and adjustable sensitivity.
It can replace it where the pavement cannot be cut; in some projects both are combined.
On a post or wall, aimed at the detection zone, with distance and angle configuration.
