Bircher EasyLoop D and S Mounting Bracket for 45° Detection

Overview

What it is

The EasyLoop mounting bracket (article 487135) is the matching accessory Bircher lists for the EasyLoop D and EasyLoop S virtual loop radar sensors. It is ordered separately from the sensor.

What it is used for

Bircher describes the bracket as allowing horizontal adjustment and 45° detection. In the EasyLoop D manual, the 45° activation arrangement detects motion to open the barrier and is aligned diagonally to the road; mounting with the bracket at a 45° angle on the barrier housing is possible.

Key features

• Horizontal adjustment of the sensor.
• 45° sensor arrangement on the barrier housing for EasyLoop D.
• Hinged design: one side is fixed to the barrier housing, the other side is held by hinge screws.
• 3D data (STEP) published by Bircher on the EasyLoop product page.

Buying considerations

The bracket is optional. Without it, the EasyLoop D manual describes mounting directly on the barrier housing or a post through an 18 mm hole. Bircher describes the 45° mode as an EasyLoop D function, so choose EasyLoop D if the barrier must be activated with a 45° arrangement.

Installation considerations

The EasyLoop D manual gives these steps: attach one side of the bracket at the intended position with the 5 self-tapping screws; fix the other side with the hinge screws; drill an 18 mm cable passage in the barrier housing and insert the seal; attach and align the sensor; pull the cable through and plug the connector into the sensor. The manual gives a sensor mounting height of 65 to 75 cm above the road for small vehicles.
