Description
The EMX VMD202-100 Vehicle Motion Detector is a rugged, long-range sensor designed for automated gates, driveway exits, and security systems on large properties. Its 100-foot lead and direct burial probe offer flexible installation while maintaining precise vehicle detection and reliable control.
- 100-Foot Lead with Direct Burial Probe: 1" diameter, 24" long probe connected by a 100-foot, 5-wire direct burial PVC cable, allowing you to place the control unit away from weather and traffic for discreet installations.
- Precise Magnetic Vehicle Detection: Magnetic field sensing detects moving ferrous metal objects within a 12-foot range at speeds as low as 5 mph, reducing false triggers and ensuring smoother gate operation.
- Versatile Power Compatibility: Supports 12-39 VDC or 12-27 VAC, enabling standard installations or solar-powered configurations without additional hardware.
- Energy-Efficient Standby: Low standby current of 70 µA conserves power in always-on or battery-assisted setups.
- Weatherproof Direct Burial Design: Watertight probe rated for -30°C to 70°C (-22°F to 158°F), suitable for harsh outdoor environments and long-term deployments.
- Relay Output: Form C (SPDT) output rated at 1A @ 24 VDC or 1A @ 120 VAC for dependable control of gates, alarms, or access systems.
- Optional Sensitivity Remote (VMD202-R): On-site tuning across 10 sensitivity levels, with settings stored in non-volatile memory for consistent performance over time.
By combining expansive installation flexibility with precise magnetic vehicle detection, the VMD202-100 delivers dependable gate automation and driveway security. The long 100-foot lead enables placing the control unit in a protected location away from direct exposure or busy driveways, while the rugged, weatherproof probe withstands outdoor conditions from -30°C to 70°C. Energy-conscious operation supports solar or battery-powered systems, and the optional sensitivity remote lets you fine-tune performance for varying site conditions. Ideal for residential driveways with wide entrances and commercial sites needing reliable vehicle detection, this sensor integrates smoothly with security controllers and access gates to reduce false triggers and streamline access.
