LINAK Desk Sensor™ 1 - The intelligent collision protection for height-adjustable desks
Introduction: More safety for modern workstations
Height-adjustable desks have become an integral part of modern offices, home offices and training rooms. They promote ergonomics, flexibility and well-being. However, as the number of electrically adjustable desk systems increases, so does the risk of collisions and the resulting damage - both to the furniture and to adjacent objects.
This is where the LINAK Desk Sensor™ 1 (DS1) comes in. The compact, intelligent anti-collision system reliably protects desks, objects and users and ensures that height-adjustable workstations are safer and more durable.
What is the LINAK Desk Sensor™ 1 (DS1)?
The Desk Sensor™ 1 is an innovative Anti-Collision™ solution from LINAK, one of the world's leading manufacturers of lifting columns and desk systems. The DS1 is a small, compact plug-in adapter that can be easily integrated into existing DESKLINE®systems. It is based on highly sensitive gyroscope technology that detects even the smallest inclinations of the table top during the process.
As soon as an inclination is detected, the system reacts immediately:
- It stops the travel process automatically
- It moves back in the opposite direction
- It prevents collisions and damage
The Desk Sensor™ 1 significantly increases the safety of height-adjustable desks - a plus point for offices, coworking spaces, universities, public authorities and all environments in which several users access the same desks.
Why collision protection is so important for height-adjustable tables
The trend towards electrically height-adjustable workstations has increased significantly in recent years. Tables are often placed close together or are used in rooms where cables, equipment or personal items are placed on and under the tables.
An unintentional collision when raising or lowering the desk can cause expensive damage - not only to the desk itself, but also to IT hardware, furniture or building equipment.
Collision protection such as the DS1 prevents
-
Damage to the table construction
-
Defects to monitors, laptops and other technology
-
Injuries caused by trapped objects
-
Downtime due to repairs or replacement
This makes the Desk Sensor™ 1 not only a safety solution, but also a contribution to reducing the costs and longevity of height-adjustable desk systems.
Technology and functionality of the Desk Sensor™ 1
The DS1 uses a sensitive gyroscope that monitors the movement of the desk top in real time. As soon as a minimal tilt or resistance is detected, the system intervenes.
Important technical features:
-
Gyroscope technology detects hard and soft obstacles
-
Plug-in adapter for easy integration
-
Automatic stop and reverse when detected
-
Compatible with all DESKLINE®systems based on the CBD6S control unit
-
Can be used with DL-IC systems (integrated control)
-
Up to four DS1 devices can be connected in series (daisy chain)
-
Can be optionally combined with PIEZO™ technology for maximum protection
-
Operates independently of load and temperature
These features make the Desk Sensor™ 1 a universally applicable solution for different table sizes and designs.
Possible applications of the Desk Sensor™ 1
The Desk Sensor™ 1 can be used in numerous environments:
-
Offices and open spaces - protects workstations in shared working environments
-
Home office - protects high-quality furniture and technology
-
Training and seminar rooms - ideal for desks that are frequently moved by different people
-
Universities and libraries - protects desks with high user frequency
-
Authorities and control rooms - minimizes downtime and repair costs
Wherever height-adjustable desks are used, the DS1 offers decisive added value.

DS1 and SEO: What customers are looking for
Many potential customers search for terms such as:
"anti-collision for height-adjustable desks", "collision protection desk electric", "buy desk sensor", "LINAK collision protection" or "desk height-adjustable protection mechanism".
With the Desk Sensor™ 1, LINAK offers exactly this solution - Made in Denmark, compatible with the well-known DESKLINE®systems and designed for maximum durability.
Integration and compatibility
The Desk Sensor™ 1 is compatible with almost all modern LINAK DESKLINE®systems.
It can be installed quickly thanks to the plug-in adapter. It works with both two-part and three-part lifting columns and can be interconnected in large desk systems via daisy chain.
For particularly sensitive applications, the DS1 can be combined with the familiar PIEZO™ technology. This creates a two-stage safety mechanism that prevents collisions even more reliably.
