PD130 Enhanced Vehicle Detector

The PD130 is a single channel microprocessor based detector designed specifically for parking and vehicle access

control application. The PD130 has been designed using the most up-to-date technology in order to meet the
requirements of a vast number of parking applications in terms of operating conditions and options available to the user.

The primary function of the detector is to detect vehicle presence by means of an inductance change caused by the
vehicle passing over a wire loop buried under the road surface.

The detector has been designed for ease of installation and convenience. The various modes are selected by changing

the positions of the switch on the front of the unit.

The switches allow for different loop frequency settings, sensitivity settings and mode settings.

The PD130 provides visual output (LED) on the front of the enclosure and relay changeover contacts are taken on the
11-pin connector at the rear of the enclosure. The LED indicates the power has been applied to the unit, that a vehicle is

present over the loop and if there is a fault on the loop. The Presence relay is fail-safe and will close on a vehicle detect
or in the event of power failure.

In accordance with the manufacturer’s policy of updating and improving product designs, product specification is
subject to change without notice. While every care has been taken with the preparation of this document, no warranty

is offered to the completeness or accuracy of this information.
