Directional Wireless Beams
Description
Traf-Sys Wireless Directional Infrared Beams are easy to install and offer
directional traffic statistics. They can use wireless communication
to send traffic counts to a data controller without the need for an
a/c power source. You can use Traf-Sys Directional Infrared Beams
with the MIU-1000 or MIU-1500 data controllers to collect inbound and
outbound traffic statistics.
Features
- 3.6 volt Lithium battery power (1 to 2-year operation)
- Integrated 418 MHz wireless radio interface
- Up to 600 ft radio range
- Covers up to 30 ft wide portals
- Unique serial number embedded in radio data packets
- Outdoor, NEMA 4 versions available
Application
Traf-Sys People Counting Wireless Directional Infrared Beams are
ideal for environments where you are unable to reach a power outlet
and need a simple to install solution. They can be installed in
minutes and require very little training or expertise to install.
Placement and Installation
Traf-Sys People Counting Wireless Directional Infrared Beams are installed in entrances up to 30 feet wide and 36 to 52 inches from the ground. The beams should be installed in an area where the path of the beams is not likely to be obstructed by doors, reflective surfaces or other objects. When the beams are blocked by objects, they are unable to count. So, it is important to make sure the area where the beams will be installed is free from obstacles. Reflective surfaces such as glass and mirrors may cause interference with the infrared detection pattern. So, it is recommended to mount your infrared beams away from such surfaces.
The Directional Infrared Beams detection pattern consists of two beams. The order in which the beams are broken determines the direction of travel recorded. Because of this mechanic, only Front-Firing versions of the Directional Infrared Beams are available. Therefore, it is recommended to mount these beams either on the inside of a door frame (see image) or with a mounting bracket that will allow you to attach the sensor to the wall. Mounting brackets are available upon request.
