Features

• Safe: Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 4, based on CENELEC EN 50129

• Flexible: Observes a parallelogram shaped area with configurable angles and size

• Modular: up to 4 radar sensors can be used in the same installation site covering all geometries of level crossing

• Performance: Extremely low false alarm probability even in harsh weather conditions (fog, rain, snow) and in all light conditions

• Reliable: MTBF > 10 years

• Diagnostic Video Camera: Video (closed circuit TV) transmission when obstacle detection occurs for system diagnostic purposes

 

Architecture
