Description
The Diablo DSP-55 Plug-In Loop Detector is a versatile vehicle detection solution designed for professional installers and energy-conscious sites. It delivers reliable presence and pulse detection by integrating with standard inductive loops and Diablo Controls' Free Exit Probes.
- Plug-In Design: Simplifies installation and ensures compatibility with control boards that support plug-in loop detectors.
- Dual Detection Options: Works with standard inductive loops for presence or pulse detection and Free Exit Probes for exit-only applications.
- Broad Compatibility: Easily integrates with most gate operators and control boards sharing a DC common connection.
- Adapter Board Options: Compatible with RK-1 and RK-3 adapter boards for setups requiring additional connectors.
- Wide Voltage Range: Operates 8 to 35 volts DC, making it ideal for solar-powered systems.
- Customizable Detection Settings: 10 sensitivity levels, 4 frequency options, and adjustable delay or extension timers.
- Fail-Safe or Fail-Secure Modes: Select the mode that fits your safety and security requirements.
- Energy-Efficient Solid-State Outputs: Three FET outputs (including inverted output) for reliable performance and reduced power consumption.
- Compact and Durable Design: Small profile fits into tight spaces and features impact-resistant plastic for long-term reliability.
