Mounting Detector
The normal installation height from the roadway is 600 mm - 700 mm, the ideal height is 700 mm as this
gives the best coverage. Under no circumstances exceed 800 mm from the ground as low profile sports
cars may not be detected.
The maximum detection distance of 5GF detector is 4 meters. It is recommended that you set the
detection distance 100mm less than the lane width to avoid interference from pedestrians or other
vehicles in adjacent lanes.
