The MD360 Wireless Vehicle Detector combines magneto resistive sensor technology with a low power battery operated radio transceiver. This combination results in a self-contained wireless vehicle detector that does not require a loop or any cables to be run to it making installation times quicker.

The wireless detectors sensor detects changes in the earth’s magnetic field due to the presence of a vehicle, which results in a detect signal being output to the MD360 Controller.

There are two Detector Types, The MD360P ‘Puck’ has been designed to be buried in the road surface underneath the vehicle path. It is suitable for installation in any stable surface (bitumen, concrete, compacted earth etc.) and can be easily installed into a 70mm core drilled hole. The MD360D ‘Dome’ is the rugged surface mount variant which bolts to the surface of the road using the supplied

The MD360C (Controller) is a wireless control unit that enables configuration and output of the MD360 Series wireless vehicle detectors. The controller features DIP switches for easy configuration and LED’s for visual indication of the operation of the paired Wireless Detector.  A relay output switches ON when a vehicle is detected.

The MD360 Wireless Vehicle features include:

 

  • Wireless connectivity: up to 50 meters range (Line of Sight)
  • Battery Life (MD360 detectors only): up to 5 years battery life @ 25℃ (Calculated @ 1 detect per minute)
  • Reset Switch: reset the Wireless Detector from the Controller (Detector adjusts to the environment becoming ready for vehicle detection
  • Easily pair MD360 Detector to Controller: (Note: Only one detector can be paired to a controller at one at a time.
  • Switch selectable Sensitivity: two sensitivity settings are available on the switches to allow for flexibility in configuration.
  • Filter Option: prevent false detection of small or fast-moving objects
  • Relay Mode: configure the relay to operate in presence or pulse mode
  • Pulse Relay Selection: configure relay to pulse on vehicle detect or undetect
  • Motion Filter: only trigger output once the vehicle has stopped moving for at least 1 second.
  • Presence Settings: the wireless detector will reset after selected timeout: 5min, 30min, 2hr and no-timeout.
