Passage counting by induction loops

The low-cost alternative in parking space detection

Passage counting by induction loops The low-cost alternative in parking space detection

For defined entrances and exits in a multi-storey parking garage, passage count-ing by means of induction loops represents a low-cost option for parking data acquisition. The IG946 is an induction pulse transmitter for the connection of up to four induction loops. It can be easily and quickly installed using plug-in tech-nology for DIN rail mounting. In addition, it includes a complete overvoltage pro-tection module. This integration minimizes the wiring effort and reduces the space requirement considerably. When using double loop systems, additional vehicle data (speed, length, direction of travel) is handed out to the service inter-face and CAN bus.
