Frequently asked questions

Argo or Elettra?

Argo has adjustable optics and a 20 m range: for industrial gates and non-aligned surfaces. Elettra has fixed optics and 15 m: it covers all residential applications.

Can I mount it on a non-aligned wall?

Yes. In this case choose AFAP20: with its optical unit adjustable ±180° horizontally and ±10° vertically, it compensates for the misalignment of the wall.

What is the actual range?

20 m for AFAP20 and 15 m for AFEPN.

Can they be used as sensors for traffic lights?

Yes, on Stagnoli traffic light control units; bear in mind they don't detect the vehicle's direction.
