MiniLoop Detector
MiniLoop Single Channel Vehicle Loop Detector - 12-24VDC
The MiniLoop is a single channel inductive loop detector designed for parking and access control applications. The detector is connected to an inductive loop mounted in the road surface. When vehicles pass over the loop the detector switches on an output.
Typical applications in the parking and access control environments are safety loops for barriers or gates, arming loops for activating card dispensers, entry or exit loops and vehicle counting.
Key Features
- Switch selectable Sensitivity. The detect sensitivity is the minimum change in inductance required to produce a detect output. Four sensitivity settings are available on the switches to allow flexibility in configuration.
- Switch selectable Frequency. The frequency of the loop is determined by the inductance of the loop and the frequency switch setting. If the frequency switch is on, the frequency is reduced. It may be necessary to change the frequency to prevent cross-talk between adjacent loops on different detectors.
- Sensitivity Boost. (ASB) This feature sets the undetected level to maximum sensitivity and is used to prevent loss of detection of high-bed vehicles.
- Permanent Presence. This feature ensures detection of the vehicle will be maintained when the vehicle is parked over the loop for extended periods.
- Relay Modes. The detect relay may be configured for a pulse output or presence output. The pulse output can be configured to be energized on detection of a vehicle or when the vehicle leaves the loop. In presence mode, the relay output can be configured to be Fail-Safe of Fail-Secure.
- Selectable Pulse Time. This feature sets the length of time that the pulse relay will be energized. 1 Second or 0.2 Second.
