Description
The EMX MRD-1P Radar Presence Detection Sensor is a high-performance microwave radar sensor designed to detect the presence of both vehicles and pedestrians near automatic barrier gates and controlled access points. Utilizing advanced radar technology, the MRD-1P provides highly accurate presence detection with an adjustable sensing range from 1 to 30 feet, making it ideal for commercial parking facilities, gated communities, industrial sites, and access control applications. This sensor does not discriminate between pedestrians and vehicles, making it suitable for general presence detection.
Built for dependable outdoor operation, the MRD-1P performs reliably in rain, snow, fog, ice, and direct sunlight. An intuitive 3-digit display with pushbutton programming simplifies setup, while the adjustable ball-and-socket mounting bracket allows precise aiming. The sensor features dual Form C relay outputs for presence detection and pulse signaling, providing flexible integration with barrier gate operators and access control systems.
