R-GAGE
QT50R Sensors
True-presence
radar paired
with exceptional
environmental resistance
Reliable sensing using
cutting-edge radar technology
Advanced radar-based sensor for reliable
detection of moving or stationary objects
The R-GAGE™ QT50R uses Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar to reliably
detect moving or stationary targets, including cars, trains, trucks and cargo. Immune to
extreme weather conditions, the QT50R effectively resists rain, wind, humidity and temperature
to accurately deliver presence, absence or change information about the observed target.
State-of-the-art presence detection for a broad range of weather conditions
▶
Uses FMCW technology for detecting
moving and stationary targets
▶
Provides presence, absence or change
information for a detected target
▶
Detects objects up to a specified
distance, ignoring objects and
backgrounds beyond the setpoint
▶
Operates at 24 GHz in the Industrial,
Scientific and Medical (ISM)
telecommunication band; no special
licensing required
▶
Features rugged IP67 housing for harsh
environments
▶
Withstands extreme temperature conditions
and exposure to strong wind
▶
Detects vehicles at distances up to 15 m
▶
Includes DIP switches for sensing distance,
sensitivity and output configuration
▶
Provides 12 to 30V dc operation with bipolar
PNP (sourcing) and NPN (sinking) output
▶
Features bright LED indicators for easy
status monitoring
An innovative solution for a wide
variety of outdoor and other
challenging applications
▶
Cargo positioning and
detection on a truck bed
▶
Truck detection at a
loading dock
▶
Access control to parking
ramps and garage doors
▶
Car detection in drive-thru
