Germany-headquartered 102 Peter Berghaus will use Intertraffic Amsterdam to present its latest portable traffic engineering products. The company’s top-selling export product, the MPB 1400 LED low-cost mobile traffic light system will be presented in its new flat design. The traffic light quartz controller for alternating one-way traffic and crossroads traffic already has LED technology in the standard version and is now GPS-synchronised. Users of this multilingual mobile traffic light are guided through the menu as easily as using a TV remote control.


The new EPB 24 Multiprocessor portable traffic light controller will also be showcased. A data bus cable connects the master and slave components which are used for direct control of large traffic light crossroads with 24 signal groups and up to 64 signal heads, with the option of 40V lamps or LED technology for every signal group.


The Berghaus partner, service provider AVS Traffic Safety Group, will also be in Amsterdam to show the full range of services available for professional traffic safety with the latest addition to the ProTec roadworks safety family: the new easily handled mobile ProTec 50 City crash barrier, ideal for urban traffic safety, together with the proven ProTec 100, ProTec 120 and ProTec 160 crash barrier systems.
