ULTRA-MVP Multi-Voltage Vehicle Loop Detector with Detect-On-Stop Technology
The ULTRA-MVP is a compact multi-voltage vehicle loop detector designed for reliable vehicle presence detection in tight or high-traffic environments. It supports a wide input voltage range, reducing inventory needs while simplifying installation. The Detect-On-Stop technology allows accurate detection only after a vehicle has fully stopped, minimizing false triggers from cross traffic. Its clear sensitivity display, low power consumption, and advanced diagnostics make it suitable for access control, parking, and gate operator applications.
- Multi-voltage input supports DC and AC power sources
- Detect-On-Stop minimizes false detection from moving traffic
- Compact housing fits small operator enclosures
- Clear sensitivity and interference diagnostic display
- Dual relay outputs for presence and signaling functions
Features DETECT-ON-STOP™ technology, enabling vehicle detection only when a vehicle comes to a complete stop—ideal for avoiding cross traffic in tight spaces.
Operates with a wide voltage range from 12VDC to 240VAC, reducing inventory needs with a universal unit.
Compact design (73 x 38 x 78 mm) allows installation in tight operator housings, saving valuable space.
Equipped with the ULTRAMETER™ display for quick and easy sensitivity adjustment and crosstalk diagnostics.
Supports both single and dual channel configurations for flexible integration in US and EU installations.
Provides two relay outputs—vehicle presence detection and selectable loop fault, pulse on entry/exit, or DETECT-ON-STOP.
Delivers 10 selectable sensitivity levels and 4 operating frequencies to fine-tune performance in varying environments.
Features automatic sensitivity boost (ASB) to maintain detection for high-bed vehicles after initial presence is registered.
Surge-protected loop circuitry enhances reliability and protects against voltage spikes.
Socket-mounted with 11-pin (JEDEC B11-88) configuration for fast and secure connections.
CE compliant and constructed from ABS plastic with an IP30 housing for durable use in standard environments.
Operates in extreme temperatures from -40°C to 82°C and up to 95% relative humidity, ensuring year-round reliability.
Low current draw (20mA standby / 50mA detect) supports energy-efficient applications.
LED indicators provide visual feedback for power/loop fault (green) and detection/frequency count (red).
Automatically tunes to the loop upon power-up and continuously compensates for environmental changes.
