Installation Methods
Adjacent to Roadway (Recommended Method)
In a Roadway
1.
Temporarily place the probe parallel to the
roadway (driveway) in the desired location.
1.
Position the probe in the center of the
roadway, perpendicular to the direction of
traffic. The probe should be located at a
minimum of
2” deep in concrete or
asphalt.
•
If installing the probe prior to paving a hot
asphalt roadway, the CS202 and its lead
cable need to be insulated. A common
method to do this would be to dig a small
trench and bury the probe and lead cable
in 4” of sand prior to paving.
(DO NOT
APPLY HOT ASPHAULT DIRECTLY
AGAINST PROBE AND LEAD CABLE!)
•
If installing the probe in concrete,
make sure it is installed above the rebar.
•
The probe may be positioned prior to
paving or a cut may be made in the
finished pavement for installation.
2.
Connect the power, output relay contact and earth ground to the intended equipment.
(
Reference EARTH GROUND CONNECTION in Wiring Connections.)
DO NOT EXCEED 41 VDC or 29 VAC.
3.
Apply power and allow 5 minutes of warm-up for system stabilization.
4.
Drive a vehicle at a minimum speed of 5 mph passed the probe and to the far side of the
roadway. Upon detection of the moving vehicle, the output relay will energize for approximately
2 seconds. Verify that the CS202 has detected the moving vehicle.
5.
Bury the probe at this location approximately
8-
12” deep for typical applications.
Repeat the previous sensitivity check
(step 4-5) to verify proper operation.
Installation adjacent to roadway complete.
5.
Installation in roadway complete.
For instances of high pedestrian traffic, heavy animals or heavy vehicles, bury the
probe 24” deep to prevent false
triggering in either installation method.
