The Traffic Signal Loop Detector is engineered to optimize urban mobility with pinpoint accuracy
and seamless adaptability for modern traffic management systems.
Featuring 16-level ultra-high sensitivity (0-F), it precisely detects vehicles ranging from motorcycles to
articulated buses (15–2000μH inductance range), even in high-speed,
high-density traffic scenarios. Its adaptive frequency hopping (20–80KHz) eliminates interference from nearby industrial equipment, 5G
networks, or adjacent detectors, ensuring 99.9% detection accuracy in complex intersections. Built for reliability, the detector
operates flawlessly in extreme temperatures (-30°C to +80°C) and
humidity, with an IP66-rated aluminum housing that resists road salt, dust, and heavy rain—making it ideal for
roundabouts, highway on-ramps, and urban corridors. Real-time LED diagnostics and auto-reset functionality provide instant alerts for coil
faults or power anomalies, minimizing downtime in mission-critical
traffic zones.
Designed for effortless integration into existing infrastructure,
this detector supports NEMA TS2 and EN 12675 compliance, ensuring compatibility with global traffic signal controllers.
Its plug-and-play wiring and DIN-rail mounting simplify installation, while Modbus RTU/TCP protocols enable seamless data exchange with centralized traffic management
systems (TMS) for adaptive signal timing and congestion analytics.
In smart city deployments, the detector feeds real-time vehicle counts and speed data to
cloud platforms, empowering AI-driven traffic flow optimization and
emergency vehicle prioritization. For example, a pilot project in
Los Angeles reduced intersection delays by 22% during peak hours
through dynamic signal adjustments. Certified for CE, FCC, and RoHS, and backed by a 10-year lifespan, this detector is the cornerstone of efficient, future-ready
traffic networks—where precision meets resilience.
Features
- 1. 15-2000 μh detection Range
- The loop detector supports a wide detection range from 15 µH to
2000 µH, accommodating various loop sizes and configurations for
versatile application in different traffic detection scenarios. The wide detection range enables our loop detector to detect all
kinds of vehicles, motorcycles, cars, Ultra long truck, buses and
so on.
- 2. Compact Side
- The compact and well-engineered housing combines all industry
requirements for features and functionality, allowing this detector
to be incorporated into any existing traffic detection system.
- 3. LED Diagnostic Capabilities
- Comprehensive diagnostics capabilities enable accurate diagnosis of
loop and installation problems and shows through LED, ensuring
optimal performance and reducing downtime.
- 4. Selectable Presence Time
- The output of the presence relay can be selected to limit a detect
output to a fixed time (greater than 30 minutes) while a vehicle
remains on the loop, providing flexibility in traffic management.
- 5. Loop Presence Time
- Interference between adjacent loop detectors can be identified
through integral indication and eliminated by adjusting the
frequency setting, ensuring reliable operation.
- 6. Two Separate Output Relays
- Presence Relay A: Provides presence output and can be extended for
0, 2, 5, 8, 10, 15, 20, or 30 seconds, programmable with external
10-way DIP switches.
- Pulse Relay B: Programmable with external 10-way DIP switches, it
offers presence, pulse on entry, pulse on exit, or failed output,
enhancing detection flexibility.
- 7. Automatic Sensitivity Boost (ASB)
- This feature reliably detects large truck-trailer combinations and
high-bed vehicles by automatically boosting the sensitivity to
maximum upon vehicle detection, ensuring accurate identification.
- 8. Automatic Environment Drifting Compensation
- Loop detectors (or other sensors) automatically adjust and
calibrate themselves to changes in environmental conditions,
maintaining detection accuracy and stability despite varying
weather and environmental factors.
- 9. 10 Dip Switch
- The dip swich design on the shell makes the setting of loop
detector easier and clearer, which is very user-friendly for users.
Users can set all the functions first and then install the loop
detector.
- 10. Anti-crosstalk interference.
- Through the dip Switch, the frequency of the loop detector can be
adjusted to prevent crosstalk interference caused by the
installation of two loop coils too close.
Connection
(1)Power Led: RED Power LED Indicates “Power ON”- Detecting Led: Continuously On: Indicates vehicle detection.
- Blinking slowly: Indicates loop is short circuit or the number of
twists after the loop is not enough.
- Blinking fast: Indicates loop is open circuit or too many twists
after the loop.
(2)Switch 1 (Trimpot), Sensitivity SelectionSensitivity of the loop can be adjusted by the trimpot labeled
“Sensitivity”. User can select 16 different setting by turning the trimpot with 0 being the least sensitive and “F”
being the most sensitive.
(3)Switch 2 (Dipswitch Settings)
1.DIP 1 & DIP 2 Setting Special Functions
2. DIP 3 & DIP 4 Setting Relay B Output
3. DIP 5 Setting Automatic Reset
4. DIP 6 & DIP 7 & DIP 8 Setting Relay A Delay
5. DIP 9 & DIP 10 Setting Frequency (40 K to 100 KHz). Used to
avoid the interference
- In the application, where two or more loop detectors and sensing
loops have been installed, set one detector to high frequency and the other set to low frequency to
minimize the effects of cross-talk between the two systems(The
sensing loops and detectors should be positioned at least 2m
apart).
- Reset Button:Please note: The LD-100 must be reset every time a
setting change is made to the Dip switches.
Detector Position And Installation:- Install the detector in a weatherproof housing.
- The detector should be as close to the sensing loop as possible.
- The detector should always be installed away from strong magnetic
fields.
- Avoid running high voltage wires near the loop detectors.
- Do not install the detector on vibrating objects.
When the control box is installed within 10 metres of the loop,
normal wires can be used to connect the control box to the loop.
More than 10 metres requires the use of a 2 core shielded cable. Do
not exceed 30 metres distance between control box and loop.
Loop Installation:
The loops are sealed using a “quick-set” black epoxy compound or
hot bitumen mastic to blend with the roadway surface.
