What is an anti-collision sensor on a sit-stand desk?

Anti-collision sensors detect resistance during desk height adjustment and stop or reverse the motor to prevent damage to objects or people in the desk's path. The sensor activates when resistance exceeds a set force threshold (typically 30–50 Newtons). Most commercial sit-stand desks include anti-collision as standard. Always clear cables from the desk's path before adjusting height, even on anti-collision-equipped models. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, all our sit-stand desks include anti-collision protection — call 1-800-460-0858.
