The Ador Indus Vehicle Activated Speed Sign (VASS) (KT reference KTI04015002SINDUS) is an industrial-grade traffic calming system engineered for rapid field deployment along public roadways, industrial corridors, and arterial highways. Proper physical mounting, radar alignment, and electrical termination are critical to ensuring maximum target acquisition across its 250-meter radar detection zone and maintaining line-of-sight readability beyond 300 meters.
Structural Mounting & Client Hardware Scope
The Ador Indus unit features a rugged noncorrosive metal housing finished in Graphite Gray RAL7024 protective coating with a curved polycarbonate front face, measuring 29 inches (H) x 29 inches (W) x 10 inches (D). The unit has a net weight of 26 kg without batteries (they are not included). The structural housing is built to IP65 waterproof standards, protecting interior electronics against dust ingress and high-pressure water streams in all weather conditions.
Standard supply packages include dedicated pole mounting bracket kits designed to interface with industrial mounting infrastructure. Field structural support poles and pole fixing hardware (such as banding or heavy-duty through-bolts) are strictly within the client scope. The physical enclosure is universally compatible for installation on:
- Standard stationary traffic and utility poles
- Overhead structural roadway gantries
- Mobile deployment trailers and dollies for portable traffic calming operations
Radar Siting and Directional Alignment
The integrated dual-direction Doppler radar operates on the 24GHz ISM / K-Band frequency. For optimal vehicle detection accuracy (rated at 99% accuracy within ±2 km/h across speeds from 5 km/h up to 199 km/h), the unit must be sited with an unobstructed direct line-of-sight toward approaching or departing traffic lanes. Siting geometry should leverage the device's 250-meter radar capture envelope to ensure oncoming drivers have adequate visibility of the 16-inch high, 7-segment tri-color LED speed digit and the 1.37-inch 'YOUR SPEED' legend from over 300 meters away.
Electrical Connections & Power Service
This model is engineered for continuous operation on 230V AC city power infrastructure. The average system power consumption is less than 150W. During termination, field technicians must route the primary AC feed into the internal terminal points while preserving the enclosure's IP65 environmental seal. While this hardware configuration natively runs on mains 230V AC, the internal chassis contains a dedicated battery enclosure with the physical capacity to hold up to 2 batteries (they are not included), accommodating optional battery (they are not included) or solar supplemental architectures if field requirements change.
Communications, External Siren & Software Commissioning
Initial system provisioning and threshold programming are conducted through the on-board Mini B-Type USB or local LAN interface, with optional GSM cellular connectivity supported. Site engineers configure operational speed parameters—including Minimum Speed, Speed Limit, and Maximum Speed thresholds—using the Indus Web App interface.
For high-risk zones, the system features an external integration interface supporting siren integration (if required) to emit alerts when configured threshold violations occur. Following network hookup, verify that the 1- or 2-line customizable message display renders programmed text or drag-and-draw graphics correctly across the ultra-bright Amber, Green, and Red tri-color LED arrays.
