ADEC Technologies expands detector range

Swiss manufacturer of non-intrusive traffic detectors ADEC Technologies has added to its range of radar traffic detectors with the TDD1-MW75, a Doppler radar traffic detector with a 75 m (250 ft.) detection range. The TDD1-MW75 can be conveniently configured for detection range of 30/45 and 75 metres (100/150/250 ft) using an infra red remote control, available as extra accessory. The detector is specifically designed for green phase request or extension at temporary or permanent traffic lights. “While ther

Swiss manufacturer of non-intrusive traffic detectors 1803 ADEC Technologies has added to its range of radar traffic detectors with the TDD1-MW75, a Doppler radar traffic detector with a 75 m (250 ft.) detection range.

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

“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”, says Markus Güntensperger, product manager at ADEC Technologies. “Our new MW75 model provides more than double the range.”
