OR SIMILAR):
• On or more contact sensor shall be located at the pinch point of a vehicular
vertical pivot gate.
• A hardwired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so that the
communication between the sensor and the gate operator is not subjected
to mechanical damage.
• A wireless contact sensor such as one that transimts radio frequency (RF)
signals the gate operator for entrapment protection functions shall be loca-
ted where the transimission of the signals are not obscrtucted or impeded
y building structure, natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless
