The ARGES Reflex Photocell consists of a transmitter and a reflector unit. The transmitter produces an infrared
beam that is reflected on the photocell reflector, which serves as a mirror when correctly aligned opposite.
Anything or anyone that crosses the field of the beam creates an interruption which is instantly reported to a
timing device accordingly to meet the International Sport Federations standards. The ARGES Reflex Photocell
allows a simple and constant monitoring of the cell alignment. It features an internal and accessible battery
lodging and can also be connected to an external battery or a DC power supply. The two outputs contacts allow
to connect the ARGES to two different timing devices simultaneously (main & back-up for example). The new
ARGES Reflex Photocell also features a completely accessible DIL switch panel on the side of the photocell
allowing users to choose from the many operating modes and options. The ARGES Reflex Photocell is a highly
precise and reliable timing device even in extreme meteorological conditions and temperatures.
