CAME DXR20CAP Photocells Oman, Steerable Synchronised Pair, 20 m Range
The CAME DXR20CAP (806TF-0030) is a pair of steerable, synchronised infrared safety photocells with a 20 m range. The beam turns up to 180 degrees, so the pair can be fixed on the side or the front of a pillar and still aim straight across the gateway. Up to 8 pairs work side by side without interference. It runs on 12 to 24V AC/DC and has a sun and weather filter. OMR 41 for the pair, in stock at our Muscat shop.
Description
The CAME DXR20CAP (code 806TF-0030) is a pair of steerable, synchronised infrared safety photocells for outdoor use, with a range of 20 metres. Its beam can be turned up to 180 degrees from the vertical axis, so the transmitter and receiver aim at each other even when the pillars are not square to the gateway.
When a car, a person or a pet breaks the beam while the gate is closing, the control board stops the gate or opens it again. The pair runs on 12 to 24V AC/DC, filters out false alarms from the sun and the weather, and up to 8 pairs can work side by side without interference.
Steerable photocells: what the turning beam solves
Ordinary photocells must be fixed face to face. That is easy on two square pillars, and hard almost everywhere else. The DXR20CAP turns its beam instead, so the units can sit where it suits the site.
| The site | What the DXR20CAP allows |
|---|---|
| Pillars set at an angle to the gateway | Fix the units flat on the pillars and turn the beam across |
| Only the side face of a pillar is free | Fix on the side and turn the beam through 90 degrees |
| A wall on one side and a post on the other | Fix each unit where it fits and aim the beams at each other |
| A gate that swings close to the pillar face | Fix on a face the gate does not cover |

CAME 806TF-0030: synchronised for up to 8 pairs
Large gates, compounds and car parks often need several pairs of photocells: across the opening, inside and outside the gate, and along the path of a sliding gate. When ordinary pairs sit close together, the beam from one can reach the receiver of another, and the gates behave unpredictably.
CAME synchronises the DXR20CAP so that up to 8 pairs work side by side without interference, with no wire needed between the transmitter and the receiver. That makes it a strong choice for a compound entrance with a gate, a pedestrian gate and a barrier in the same space.
20 m photocells: DIR10, DLX30CEP or DXR20CAP
We stock three CAME photocell pairs. Choose by the site, not by the range alone.
| CAME DIR10 | CAME DLX30CEP | CAME DXR20CAP | |

| Range | 10 m | 10 to 30 m | 20 m |
| Steerable beam | No | No | Yes, up to 180 degrees |
| Synchronised | No | Yes | Yes, up to 8 pairs |
| Sun and weather filter | No | Yes | Yes |
| Best for | Square pillars on a villa gate | Wide openings and sites with two pairs | Angled pillars and sites with many pairs |
| Price for the pair | OMR 33.000 | OMR 40.000 | OMR 41.000 |

Which boards the DXR20CAP works with
The DXR20CAP works with CAME control boards for sliding gates, swing gates, garage doors and barriers, wired for reopening while closing or for a partial stop. Its contact output can also be set so the pair acts as a control device. It runs on 12 to 24V AC/DC, so many boards from other brands can power it too. Send us a photo of your board and we check before you buy.
If your CAME board uses BUS wiring, you need the BUS version, the DXR20SAP, not this pair. See our CAME sliding gate motors, CAME swing gate motors and gate barriers.
Photocells for angled pillars: how we fit the DXR20CAP
- We choose a face on each pillar that the gate does not cover, inside the line of the gate.
- We fix the units at bumper height, on the front or side face, or on posts where needed.
- We turn each beam until the transmitter and receiver aim straight at each other.
- We set the range to suit the opening, so the beam does not reach further than it needs to.
- We run the cable to the board in conduit, out of the sun, then test by breaking the beam while the gate closes.
Sun, dust and heat: the DXR20CAP in Oman
| Problem | What helps |
|---|---|
| Low sun shining into the receiver | The sun filter, plus turning the receiver away from the sunrise or sunset where we can |
| Dust on the covers | Wipe both covers with a soft cloth every month |
| Heat above 55°C on a pillar in full sun | Fit on the shaded face, which the turning beam makes possible |
| Ants inside the housing | Check inside the covers at every service |
Test your photocells once a month: wave a hand or a box through the beam while the gate closes. If the gate does not stop or open again, call us.

What is the CAME DXR20CAP?
A pair of steerable, synchronised infrared safety photocells, code 806TF-0030, with a 20 m range and a beam that turns up to 180 degrees.
Why choose steerable photocells?
Because the beam turns, the units can sit on the side or the front of a pillar, or on pillars set at an angle, and still aim straight across the gateway.
How many pairs can work together?
Up to 8 pairs of DXR20CAP photocells can work side by side without interference.
What is the difference between the DXR20CAP and the DXR20SAP?
The DXR20CAP is the standard version for normal wiring. The DXR20SAP is the BUS version for CAME BUS boards.
What is the CAME DXR20CAP price in Oman?
OMR 41.000 for the pair, in stock at our Muscat shop. Fitting is quoted with your gate job.
