- Built for industrial environment: IP66
Measuring train speed accurately in a train load out system is crucial for wagon loading weight control and automation. Traditional train speed cameras are not sufficiently accurate with accuracy often compromised by sensitivity to environmental factors such as light and dust. Calculating train speed from track switches is noisy, requiring use of a heavy filter compromising accuracy which is lost during changes of speed.
Accurate in all harsh environments
The iTLO Ultra Low Speed Doppler Radar provides excellent accuracy and is designed to be robust in any industrial environment. Designed for slow moving wagons in a train load out system or any applications requiring high resolution slow to medium range speed measurement or motion sensing, the iTLO uses specialised signal processing for accurate and reliable motion speed detection.
Field Proven
The iTLO 3001 Low Speed Doppler Radar has been utilised successfully in several mine sites of high profile mining companies to improve efficiency and reduce costs. The photos below show a number of installations across Australia.
Low Cost
Compared to widely utilised traditional speed cameras, the iTLO 3001 radar is only a fraction of the cost.
High update speed and resolution
Measurement update every 80 ms with 3 decimal points of accuracy with 0.01 km/hr measurement resolution.
