BEA BEA-10FALCON – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What mounting height does the BEA 10FALCON motion sensor need to work correctly?
The Falcon mounts between 138 and 276 inches (11.5 to 23 feet), which is why it suits industrial doors, high-bay warehouse entries and gate installs rather than a standard storefront entrance. If your mounting point is lower, the Falcon XL covers 78 to 138 inches (6.5 to 11.5 feet) and the Falcon Wide runs 138 to 252 inches (11.5 to 21 feet). Mounting below the stated range for the model you pick puts the detection pattern where you did not intend it.
2) How big an area does the BEA Falcon microwave sensor actually cover?
At a 192 inch mounting height the Falcon detection zone is 156 x 192 inches, or 13 by 16 feet. That is the number to lay out against your drive lane or door opening. The Falcon Wide pattern is 360 x 132 inches (30 by 11 ft) at 252 inches, so a wide vehicle gate or a double loading dock opening is the Wide's job, not the standard Falcon's. The XL gives 156 x 78 inches (13 x 6.5 ft) at 98.4 inches for lower ceilings.
3) Can the BEA 10FALCON sensor be mounted outside on a loading dock or gate?
Outdoor and exposed mounting is what the housing is built for: NEMA 4 / IP65 protection, ABS and polycarbonate construction, and an operating range of -22 to 140 degrees F. That covers unheated docks, exterior gate posts and washdown-adjacent areas in cold climates.
4) Will the BEA Falcon radar sensor run off my existing door operator's 24V supply?
It takes 12 to 24 VAC (+/-10%) or 12 to 24 VDC, at 50 to 60 Hz mains frequency, and draws under 2 W. Most commercial door and gate operators supply 24V accessory power in that range, so a separate transformer is usually not needed. Check the operator's accessory terminal rating against the 2 W draw before you land the wires.
5) What kind of output does the BEA 10FALCON have, and can it switch my gate operator directly?
The output is a dry relay contact, free of potential, wired as a change-over so you can take it normally open or normally closed to suit the operator input. Limits are 42 VAC/VDC maximum contact voltage, 1 A resistive, and 30 W DC or 60 VA AC switching power. That is signal-level switching for an operator or control panel input. It will not drive a motor or a door operator load directly, so if you are switching anything heavier, run the relay into a contactor.
6) Should I use a microwave motion sensor or a presence sensor on an industrial overhead door?
Microwave doppler radar, which is what the Falcon uses, detects motion only. Its minimum detection speed is 2 inches per second, so anything moving slower than that, or standing still in the opening, will not hold the door. That makes it an activation device for traffic that keeps moving: forklifts, vehicles through a gate, carts through a dock. If you need the door to stay open for someone stopped in the opening, or you need safety presence hold, a motion-only radar is the wrong device and you want a presence sensor instead.
7) Do I need to buy cable separately for the BEA 10FALCON, and how much room do I have to run it?
33 feet of cable ships with the sensor, so a run from a header-mounted or high-bay position down to a control panel is usually covered without splicing. Plan the panel location inside that 33 foot allowance, because extending it means adding a junction and your own wire.
8) How much space do I need at the mounting point for the BEA Falcon sensor head?
The housing measures 3.75 in (W) x 4 in (H) x 5 in (D), and the head tilts through 0 to 180 degrees. Leave clearance behind and below the bracket for that tilt travel plus the cable entry, since aiming the detection pattern onto the drive lane or door approach is done with the tilt.
9) Is the BEA 10FALCON suitable for a residential garage or driveway gate?
It is a commercial-duty device, built around industrial mounting heights of 11.5 to 23 feet. A residential garage header sits far below that range, so the pattern would not land where you need it. For a low header, the Falcon XL's 6.5 to 11.5 foot range is the one that fits the geometry.
10) How do I tell if the BEA Falcon sensor is detecting during setup without watching the door cycle?
Two LEDs on the unit do the commissioning for you: red shows detection state and parameter indication, green shows value indication. During aiming you walk or drive the pattern and watch the red LED rather than cycling the operator, then use the same LEDs to confirm the parameter you are adjusting.
