EMX Magnetoresistive Vehicle Detector CarSense 303 (CS303-C1) - BFT-EMXCS303C1
The CarSense™ 303 features advanced 3-axis, magnetoresistive sensing technology. The sensor measures Earth’s magnetic field and responds to disturbances caused by ferrous objects. The CS303 combines this exciting new technology with a fieldproven hardware platform to produce a high-sensitivity, compact, and cost-effective solution for reliable vehicle detection. Three sensing elements provide magnetic field measurement in the X, Y and Z axes, improving detection sensitivity.
- Three-dimensional presence detection of vehicles
- Select X, Y and/or Z axis independently
- Stand-alone sensor stores background and settings in a non-volatile memory
- ULTRAMETER™ sensitivity display for easy set-up and installation
- Remote control module for programming and additional relay contact output
- Fast response for high-speed detection
- Easy, low-cost installation
- Logic Interface available for extended range, directional logic and more
- NEW....DETECT-ON-STOP™ or (DOS®) feature will allow detection only when a vehicle has come to a complete stop near the sensor. This is a worldwide unique feature to EMX detectors. It is a major advantage if you want to ignore cross traffic in tight spaces.
In contrast to the multiple cuts and corner reliefs required for the installation of inductive loops, the small size of the detector allows for easy installation in pavement (below grade) with straight saw cut resulting in cost savings on labor and materials. The rugged sensor is also suitable for above grade installations, making it ideal for use in confined areas or hidden in non-ferrous architectural components for security purposes.
