Product Features
Technical Overview
Engineered for professional access control, the T.REX-LT2-NL operates on 28V DC power, making it compatible with standard access control power supplies. The wireless connectivity eliminates the need for extensive wiring, simplifying retrofits and new installations in spaces where running cables is challenging.
The detector uses passive infrared technology to sense body heat and movement within its coverage area, sending a wireless signal to the access control panel when motion is detected. This triggers the request-to-exit function, allowing doors to unlock or release for safe egress.
Relevant factors for this section include Connectivity Technology, Passive Infrared Sensor (PIR), Input Voltage, Power Source. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.
Key Product Advantages
The T.REX-LT2-NL delivers critical benefits for access control deployments, combining reliable performance with installation flexibility. Its design prioritizes ease of integration and consistent operation in demanding environments.
Simplified Installation
Wireless connectivity reduces cabling requirements, allowing faster deployment and lower labor costs, especially in retrofit scenarios or buildings with structural constraints.
- No extensive wiring runs
- Easy ceiling or wall mounting
- Compatible with Kantech T.Rex systems
Accurate Motion Detection
Passive infrared sensing minimizes false alarms by detecting body heat and movement, ensuring doors release only when needed for safe, controlled egress.
- PIR technology reduces false triggers
- Reliable coverage for exit areas
- Consistent performance over time
Discreet and Durable Design
The compact white housing installs flush against surfaces, maintaining a low visual profile while meeting RoHS and WEEE environmental standards for responsible manufacturing.
- White color blends with interiors
- Compact dimensions: 7.48"W x 1.77"H x 1.87"D
- Environmentally compliant construction
Deployment / Use Cases
This detector is ideal for commercial, institutional, and healthcare facilities where controlled access and safe egress are priorities. It integrates into Kantech T.Rex access control systems to automate door releases based on detected motion.
Common applications include securing stairwells, exit corridors, controlled entry points, and perimeter doors. The wireless design makes it suitable for retrofitting older buildings or installing in spaces where running wires is impractical, such as finished ceilings or historic structures.
Commercial Building Exits
Install above doors in office buildings, retail spaces, or warehouses to trigger automatic unlocks when occupants approach exits, enhancing security while ensuring compliance with fire and safety codes.
Healthcare and Institutional Facilities
Use in hospitals, schools, or government buildings to manage access to restricted areas, allowing authorized personnel to exit seamlessly while maintaining controlled entry.
Physical Profile
The detector features a low-profile white housing measuring 7.48" wide, 1.77" high, and 1.87" deep, designed for discreet ceiling or wall mounting. Its compact size minimizes visual intrusion while providing reliable sensor coverage. The white finish blends with most interior surfaces, and the unit supports standard mounting hardware for secure installation.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.77" (45 mm), 7.48" (190 mm), 1.87" (47.50 mm). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
