Overview
What it is
ArtMotion 2 is a 24.125 GHz microwave (radar) motion detector in a small housing. It detects people moving towards an automatic door and sends an opening signal to the door controller.
What it is used for
Bircher positions ArtMotion 2 for activating automatic sliding doors and telescopic sliding doors, including particularly tall and wide doors. With a field up to 4.8 m wide, one detector per side can cover a wide opening.
Key features
- Field from 0.8 x 1.6 m up to 2.3 x 4.8 m at 2.2 m mounting height
- Wide or narrow field pattern by rotating the radar module 90°
- Tilting radar module and potentiometer for field size
- Bidirectional solid state relay output with fixed 1 s fall-delay
- Low consumption: max. 32 mA at 24 V DC, max. 1.3 W
Buying considerations
ArtMotion 2 is an opening sensor only and does not protect the closing edges; Bircher lists DualSense S and TopScan as complementary safety products. Colours listed are black, silver and blue.
Installation considerations
Mounting height is 1.8 to 4 m. The housing is suitable for IP54 use. Operate from a safety extra-low voltage supply and keep the door drive and transom earthed. The 3 m cable has a plug.
Compatibility
Supply 12 to 36 V DC or 12 to 28 V AC. The relay switches up to 48 V AC/DC, 120 mA and 550 mW, which suits activation inputs on standard sliding door operators. Bircher also states FCC Part 15 compliance.
Features

In use
Bircher positions ArtMotion 2 for activating automatic sliding doors and telescopic sliding doors, including particularly tall and wide doors. With a field up to 4.8 m wide, one detector per side can cover a wide opening.

Questions about this product
Can ArtMotion 2 cover a wide telescopic sliding door?
Yes. Bircher states the field reaches 4.8 m wide, so one detector per side is enough even for wide doors.
Does ArtMotion 2 provide safety protection?
No. It is a radar activation sensor. Pair it with an AIR presence sensor such as DualSense S for closing edge protection.
