Electro-mechanical instant reverse or stop
This built-in door load sensing device is optional equipment (at extra cost). If downward travelling door meets an obstruction, door will instantly reverse and automatically stop at fully open position or, when specified, can be wired to door stop only. This system eliminates the use of air hose, air switch, retractable cord, etc.
Solenoid brake
To prevent door from coasting and holding in any position.
