Hitachi GMP02A-E Elevator Light Curtain – Advanced Safety Protection for Elevator Doors
Elevator doors close quickly. If a passenger or object is in the doorway, the risk of injury increases. Traditional mechanical sensors often miss small objects or react too slowly.
The Hitachi GMP02A-E Elevator Light Curtain provides a smarter and safer solution. It uses infrared beam detection technology to monitor the entire elevator door opening. When something interrupts the beam, the system immediately signals the door to reopen.
What Is an Elevator Light Curtain?
An elevator light curtain is a safety device installed along the sides of elevator doors. It creates a grid of infrared beams across the door entrance. When a person, luggage, or object blocks the beams, the system sends a signal to the door controller. The door then stops closing or reopens immediately. The Hitachi GMP02A-E Elevator Light Curtain is designed to provide full-height protection and accurate detection for elevator doorways.
Key Features
1. High-Density Infrared Detection
Multiple infrared beams create a wide detection zone across the elevator doorway.
2. Fast Response Time
The system reacts instantly when the beam is interrupted, improving passenger safety.
3. Full Door Protection
Provides complete coverage from top to bottom, detecting even small objects.
4. Stable Signal Performance
Advanced electronics ensure reliable communication with the elevator controller.
5. Compact and Durable Design
A slim profile allows easy installation without affecting door movement.
6. Long Service Life
High-quality components deliver consistent performance over time.

II. Accurate Object Detection
Sensitive sensors identify small objects, bags, and passengers.
III. Smooth Elevator Operation
Prevents door interruptions that could damage the door system.
IV. Reduced Maintenance
Reliable electronics reduce sensor failures and repair costs.
V. Compatible with Modern Elevators
Works with various elevator control systems and door operators.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What does an elevator light curtain do?
An elevator light curtain detects objects in the doorway and prevents the door from closing on passengers or items.
Q: How does the infrared detection system work?
Infrared beams form a protective grid across the doorway. If the beams are blocked, the door stops or reopens automatically.
Q: Is the Hitachi GMP02A-E compatible with different elevators?
Yes. It is designed to work with many elevator door control systems.
Q: Why is a light curtain better than a mechanical door sensor?
Light curtains provide full-height detection, while mechanical sensors only protect a small area.
Elevator safety depends heavily on reliable door protection systems. Without proper sensors, doors may close unexpectedly and cause accidents. The Hitachi GMP02A-E Elevator Light Curtain offers fast response, accurate detection, and dependable safety performance.
For elevator installers, maintenance teams, and building owners, it provides an essential layer of protection for passengers.
