BEA IXIO-ST Active Infrared Presence Sensor for Automatic Sliding Doors

The BEA IXIO-ST (10IXIOST) is an active infrared presence sensor engineered for automatic sliding doors in commercial environments. It generates precise infrared curtains with visible alignment beams for both clear door openings and side-lite protection. An on-board LCD screen guides installation and setup, and the unit ships ANSI-compliant-ready with FCC certification and IP54 environmental protection.

Key Features

  • Active Infrared Detection: Infrared curtains with visible alignment beams for accurate, adjustable presence detection — no guesswork during alignment.
  • Clear Opening & Side-Lite Coverage: Configurable for both the door opening and side-lite zones in a single unit, reducing hardware count per installation.
  • On-Board LCD Display: Guides configuration directly at the sensor — no laptop or external programmer required.
  • ANSI Compliance: Adjustable to meet ANSI sliding door safety requirements out of the box.
  • Dual Relay Outputs: Electro-mechanical and solid-state relay outputs available; hold time configurable per application.
  • IP54 & FCC Certified: Rated for demanding commercial environments; meets FCC and applicable EU directives (R&TTE, EMC, MD, RoHS).
  • Wide Voltage Range: Accepts 12–24 VAC or 12–30 VDC (SELV), compatible with most commercial door controller power supplies.

BEA BEA-10IXIOST – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can one IXIO-ST cover both the door opening and the side-lite, or do I need two sensors?
One unit does both. The IXIO-ST generates up to 2 curtains, and they can be configured separately for the clear opening and for the side-lite guard zone, so a typical sliding entrance needs one sensor rather than a pair. Two curtains is the ceiling, so an opening that needs more than two independently configured zones needs additional hardware.
2) Will the IXIO-ST run off my existing automatic door operator's power supply?
It accepts 12-24 VAC or 12-30 VDC, both at plus or minus 10 percent, which is the range most commercial sliding door controllers put out on their accessory terminals. Power draw is under 2.5 W. The one condition: the supply has to be SELV-compatible. If your operator's aux output is within that window, no separate transformer is needed.
3) How do I wire the IXIO-ST output into a door controller that only takes a dry contact?
Both outputs are potential- and polarity-free, so either drops straight onto a dry contact input. The electro-mechanical relay handles up to 1 A at 30 VDC with a hold time adjustable from 0.5 to 9 seconds. The solid-state relay is the lighter-duty, faster one: 400 mA at 42 VDC with a 0.3 to 1 second hold. Pick the electro-mechanical side if your controller wants a longer presence hold, the solid-state side if it wants fast switching and low current.
4) Can the IXIO-ST be mounted on an exterior sliding entrance in a cold or wet climate?
It carries an IP54 rating and runs from -13 F to 131 F at 0 to 95 percent RH non-condensing. IP54 means dust-protected and shielded against splashing water, which suits a covered exterior entrance or a vestibule header. It is not a submersion or pressure-washdown rating, so a fully exposed header taking direct driven rain is outside what IP54 covers.
5) Does the BEA 10IXIOST meet ANSI sliding door safety requirements?
The sensor is adjustable to meet ANSI sliding door safety requirements as shipped, and it is FCC certified. It also meets the applicable EU directives: R&TTE 1999/5/EC, EMC 2004/108/EC, MD 2006/42/EC and RoHS 2002/95/EC. Meeting the requirement still depends on setting the curtains to the coverage your opening calls for, which is what the on-board LCD walks you through.
6) Do I need a laptop or a handheld programmer to set up the BEA IXIO-ST?
No extra kit. Configuration runs off an LCD screen on the sensor itself, and the infrared curtains project visible alignment beams so you can see exactly where the detection field is landing while you aim it. That is a one-technician job on a ladder rather than a two-person alignment with a programmer passed back and forth.
7) How far can the IXIO-ST sensor be from the door controller before I need to splice the cable?
Cable supplied with the sensor is 10 ft on the pedestrian version and 30 ft on the industrial version. On a standard retail slider with the controller in the header a few feet away, 10 ft is plenty. On an industrial opening where the control panel sits off to the side or down a jamb, specify the industrial version and its 30 ft lead rather than extending a short one.
8) Can I use the IXIO-ST on a swing door or a revolving door instead of a slider?
No. The IXIO-ST is built for automatic sliding doors, and its curtains are laid out for a sliding clear opening plus the side-lite zone beside it. A swing door needs a sensor set for the swing path and the approach side; a slider sensor aimed at a swinging leaf will not guard the arc the door actually sweeps.
9) Does the IXIO-ST support the monitoring or test input my door controller uses for self-check?
Yes, there's a test input for controller self-check. It reads low below 1 V and high above 10 V, up to a 30 V maximum, with a typical response under 5 ms. If your operator pulses its safety sensors on each cycle to verify they are alive, the IXIO-ST answers that pulse.
10) What is the BEA part number to order this sliding door presence sensor?
Order it as BEA 10IXIOST, manufacturer part IXIO-ST. It is a single-configuration commercial sensor, so there are no finish or handing options to specify. Decide the cable length version (pedestrian at 10 ft, industrial at 30 ft) against how far the sensor sits from your controller.
