LCN 8310-804-1 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the LCN 8310-804-1 sensor actually do on an automatic door?
The 8310-804-1 is a door-mounted safety sensor that watches the leading edge of the door while it swings, so the operator gets an obstruction signal before the door contacts a person or a cart. It carries one active sensor module aimed at that leading edge zone. It is an obstruction-detection device, not an activation device, so it will not open the door on approach.
2) Will the LCN 8310-804-1 safety sensor work with any brand of automatic door operator?
It is built for the LCN 8310 Series automatic operator system and that is the pairing our data supports. If your opening runs a different operator line, spec the safety sensor from that operator's own accessory range instead. Swapping a door-mount safety sensor across operator families is where these jobs go wrong.
3) Do I need a leading edge safety sensor to meet ADA on a power operated door?
Obstruction detection is the piece that keeps a powered swing door from striking someone, and the 8310-804-1 is listed ADA compliant for that duty on 8310 Series openings. For a facility standardizing entrances (healthcare, education, government), this is the part that closes out the safety side of a low energy operator install.
4) Is the 8310-804-1 the same thing as a touchless push plate or wave-to-open actuator?
No, and mixing them up is common. The 8310-804-1 detects obstructions while the door is moving; a touchless actuator is what a person waves at to start the cycle. A full 8310 opening usually wants both. If what you need is the activation side, look at touchless IR actuation such as the SDC 470 Series touchless IR sensors, or a capacitive touch plate like the SDC 460 Series in stainless.
5) Our access control drawing calls for a request-to-exit motion detector at the door. Does the LCN 8310-804-1 cover that?
It does not. Request-to-exit is an egress function that releases a locking device when someone approaches from the secure side, and the parts built for it are units like the Dortronics 6612 Series request-to-exit PIR motion detector, which runs on 12/24VDC and carries an adjustable 1 to 120 second time delay in a slim 7.1 inch by 1.65 inch by 1.65 inch housing, or the SDC MD-31D Series request-to-exit PIR motion sensor with dual voltage auto-sensing. The LCN 8310-804-1 is a door-mount safety sensor for obstruction detection on the leading edge, tied to the LCN 8310 Series operator. A door that both unlocks for egress and opens automatically needs a REX device and the 8310-804-1 as separate line items.
6) Can an SDC 470 touchless IR sensor be used instead of the LCN 8310-804-1 for obstruction detection on an automatic door?
No, those two devices do different jobs. The LCN 8310-804-1 is an active door-mount sensor used to sense obstruction on the leading edge of the door while it swings, which is what an ADA-compliant automatic operator needs to avoid contact with a pedestrian. The SDC 470 Series is a touchless IR sensor with dual voltage 12/24VDC operation, meaning a hand-wave actuator that tells the operator to start a cycle. A 470 can be the button that opens the door, but it does not watch the leading edge during the swing, so it does not replace the 8310-804-1. On a typical low energy operator you would use both: a 470 to initiate and the 8310-804-1 for leading edge protection.
7) Is the SDC 460 capacitive touch sensor an equivalent to the LCN 8310-804-1?
They are not equivalents. The SDC 460 Series is a capacitive touch sensor built with vandal resistant stainless steel construction, a switch a person deliberately touches to signal the door. The LCN 8310-804-1 is an electronic door-mount safety sensor whose stated application is sensing obstruction on the leading edge of the door, and it is designed to work with LCN 8310 Series automatic operators and their touchless actuator systems. If the requirement on the drawing is leading edge safety, the 460 does not satisfy it; if the requirement is a durable actuator in a high-abuse corridor, the 460 addresses that and the 8310-804-1 does not.
8) Is this an electrified part that needs to be wired by the installer?
Yes, the 8310-804-1 is an electronic device and gets wired back into the 8310 operator control, so plan on it being part of the electrical rough-in rather than a mechanical drop-in. Wiring and template detail sits in LCN's installation instructions and template index, and the operator catalog section covers the sensor and accessory range for the series.
9) What model do I give my supplier to get the LCN leading edge safety sensor?
Order it as LCN 8310-804-1, in the 8310 Series. There is one configuration, so there is no handing, finish, or voltage option to call out on the purchase order.
10) Does the 8310-804-1 work alongside LCN touchless actuators on the same opening?
Yes. It is intended to run with LCN touchless actuator systems, including the heavy-duty, standard, close-proximity, and harsh environment models, so you can pair touchless activation with leading edge obstruction protection on the same 8310 operator.
11) What is the difference between the Dortronics 6612 and the SDC MD-31D if I need a motion sensor at an automatic door opening?
Both are request-to-exit PIR motion sensors, so both watch for approaching people rather than for an obstruction in the door path. The Dortronics 6612 Series is a slim line unit measuring 7.1 inches by 1.65 inches by 1.65 inches, operates on 12/24VDC, and has an adjustable time delay from 1 to 120 seconds. The SDC MD-31D Series is a request-to-exit PIR motion sensor with dual voltage auto-sensing, so it determines the supply voltage itself rather than being set for it. Neither performs the leading edge obstruction detection that the LCN 8310-804-1 provides for an 8310 Series operator, so on an automatic opening these sit alongside the safety sensor rather than in place of it.
12) For a healthcare corridor where staff cannot touch the door hardware, which sensor should be specified alongside the LCN 8310-804-1?
The 8310-804-1 handles the safety side: it is a commercial-grade door-mount sensor that detects obstruction on the leading edge of the door and supports ADA compliance on the automatic operator. What it does not do is initiate the cycle hands-free. For that, the SDC 470 Series is a touchless IR sensor with dual voltage 12/24VDC operation, activated by hand proximity with no contact. Where the surface will take heavy contact or abuse instead, the SDC 460 Series is a capacitive touch sensor with vandal resistant stainless steel construction. Pairing a touchless or vandal resistant actuator with the 8310-804-1 gives a healthcare opening both no-touch activation and leading edge protection.
13) Is the LCN 8310-804-1 sensor suitable for a residential garage or home entry door?
No, it is a commercial-duty part tied to a commercial automatic operator system. It belongs on building entrances, healthcare and institutional doors, and multi-tenant entries, not on residential openings.
