The TAKEX PR-S3 Near Infrared Roller Door Sensor is a reliable security detection solution for commercial roller shutters, industrial doors and storage facilities. Featuring advanced double-beam infrared reflection technology, a 5–40cm sensing distance, adhesive reflection sheets and 10–30V DC operation, the PR-S3 helps detect unauthorised roller door opening while reducing unwanted alarms.
Designed for professional security applications, the TAKEX PR-S3 monitors roller door movement using near-infrared beams reflected from sheets attached to the shutter surface. When the reflected beam is interrupted or no longer received, the sensor activates its alarm output, making it suitable for integration with compatible intruder alarm and security monitoring systems.
Its intelligent double-beam detection system helps minimise false alarms caused by shutter vibration, insects and reflected light. An integrated delay circuit provides additional resistance to unwanted activation caused by normal door movement.
The compact sensor supports installation inside a shutter housing or on a suitable lintel, with optional mounting accessories available for different installation requirements.

Practical Applications
Commercial Roller Shutter Security
Monitor roller shutters installed at retail stores, commercial premises and business entrances as part of a compatible intruder alarm system.
Warehouse and Industrial Door Monitoring
Provide security detection for roller doors installed in warehouses, workshops, distribution facilities and industrial buildings.
Self-Storage Facility Protection
Integrate the PR-S3 into compatible alarm systems used to monitor individual storage unit shutters.
Garage and Storage Door Security
Use the sensor with suitable indoor roller shutter installations to detect door opening and support security monitoring.
Alarm System Integration
Connect the sensor's dry contact relay output to compatible security control panels for roller shutter status monitoring and alarm activation.
Installation Considerations
The TAKEX PR-S3 should be installed 5–40cm from the appropriate reflective surface on the roller shutter.
The reflection sheets must be correctly positioned to receive the sensor's infrared beams. The infrared beam is directed approximately 15 degrees downward, making correct reflector placement important for reliable detection.
For best results, installation should be performed by a qualified security technician following the manufacturer's instructions.
The PR-S3 is designed for indoor mounting positions, including suitable shutter housings and lintels. It should not be assumed suitable for direct outdoor exposure.
Warranty Information
Manufacturer warranty terms, duration and applicable conditions should be confirmed with the authorised TAKEX supplier at the time of purchase.
Warranty claims may be subject to inspection and the manufacturer's applicable warranty policy.
