heavy-duty system has an IP69K waterproof rating and works perfectly in all
weather conditions.
Before permanently installing the system on the vehicle, verify that the
sensor mounting location provides a clear detection zone.
Take the vehicle to a clear area, temporarily attach the sensor in the
proposed mounting location, apply power to the system, and verify that
nothing is being detected. Our system is not aected if multiple systems are
operating in the same area or on the same vehicle, even if they are installed
in close proximity with overlapping detection ranges. There is no detection
of an object closer than approx. 0.3m to the sensor.
