ADEC Technologies Releases 75 m (250 ft.) Range Traffic Detector

Eschenbach, February 7th 2013: ADEC Technologies, a Swiss manufacturer of non-intrusive road-traffic detectors, announced today that they have released a Doppler radar traffic detector with a 75 m (250 ft.) detection range.

The detector augments the TDD1 series of Doppler radar traffic detectors that provide simple contact closure output and allow for easy customization using an IR remote. Markus Güntensperger, product manager at ADEC Technologies AG, explains: “While there’s great need for reliable, simple traffic detectors, we’ve seen that many customers were looking forward to a model with enhanced detection range compared to our current TDD1-MW30 model which is designed for short-range applications. Our new MW75 model provides more than double the range.”

Besides other settings, the new TDD1-MW75 model can be conveniently configured for detection range of 30 / 45 and 75 m (100 / 150 / 250 ft.) using an IR remote control, available as extra accessory. The detector is specifically designed for green phase request or extension at temporary or permanent traffic lights.

New radar-based vehicle detector

Eschenbach, August 16th 2011: ADEC Technologies today announced the release of a simple short to medium-range traffic detector. The Doppler radar-based detector stands out through its rather unique accessory. Markus Güntensperger, Product Manager at ADEC Technologies, comments “The commissioning interface of any detector often leads to a compromise between longevity and versatility. We felt that neither DIP switches nor additional connectors optimally serve the temporary nature of the commissioning task. A simple IR remote control device does.”

Besides the novel approach to set application specific parameters via IR remote, the device features a detection range up to 30 m (100 ft.) at an opening angle of 25 degrees. Output is provided via SPDT relays and a feed-back LEDs on the front. It can be powered from a wide range of supplies, accepting 5-60 VDC or 24 VAC.

Typical applications include green-phase requests at traffic lights (mobile and stationary), speed dependent detection of vehicles and auto-operation of doors and gates.
