(54) Modular device particularly for automatic doors


(57) A modular device particularly usable for automatic doors, constituted by at least one sensor module (2) which can be associated with the door and can be connected by means of a cable (13) to a management module (15). The management module (15) is adapted to power and detect the number and type of the at least one sensor module (2) and the signal that arrives from it; the signal is processed to transfer it to a suitable actuation unit for moving the door. The separation between the sensor module (2) and the management module (15) allows to considerably reduce costs with respect to the use of conventional motion sensors.
