SmartSensor 105 Installation
Specication
1.0 General. This item shall govern the installation of an
aboveground radar vehicle sensing device (RVSD) equivalent
to the Wavetronix SmartSensor 105.
RVSDs can provide accurate, consistent, and reliable data
provided they are installed properly. The requirements in this
specication are intended to ensure proper RVSD installation.
2.0 Mounting and Installation.
2.1 Mounting Assembly. The RVSD shall be mounted
directly onto a mounting assembly fastened to a pole or
other solid structure.
The RVSD mounting assembly shall provide the neces-
sary degrees of rotation to ensure proper installation.
The RVSD mounting assembly shall be constructed of
weather-resistant materials and shall be able to support a
20-lb. (9.1 kg) load.
2.2 Mounting Location. The RVSD shall be mounted at
a height that is within the manufacturer’s recommended
mounting heights.
The RVSD shall be mounted at an oset from the rst lane
that is consistent with the RVSD’s minimum oset.
The RVSD shall be mounted so that the farthest lane to be
monitored is within the maximum range of the RVSD.
The RVSD shall be mounted with its cable connector
down and shall be tilted so that the RVSD is aimed at the
center of the lanes to be monitored. Typically, the RVSD is
tilted o of vertical by 10–20 degrees.
The RVSD shall be aligned so that the horizontal angle is
within approximately ±2 degrees of perpendicular to the
ow of trac.
Two RVSD units shall not be mounted so that they are
pointed directly at each other.
A distance of 40 ft. (12.2 m) or more, along the direction of
the roadway, shall separate the RVSDs if they are located
on opposing sides of a roadway and the RVSDs shall be
congured to operate on dierent RF channels.
RVSDs that are mounted within 20 ft. (6.1 m) of each other
shall be congured to operate on dierent RF channels
regardless of the pointing direction of the RVSDs.
When possible, the pole selected for the RVSD shall be
where there is no guardrail or other type of barrier be-
tween the pole and the rst lane of trac.
The RVSD shall not be installed in areas with overhead
structures, namely tunnels and overpasses. The RVSD
shall be mounted at least 30 ft. (9.1 m) to the side of any
such overhead structures.
It is recommended that the manufacturer be consulted to
verify nal RVSD placement if the RVSD is to be mounted
near large planar surfaces (sound barrier, building,
parked vehicles, etc.) that run parallel to the monitored
roadway.
2.3 Cabling. The cable end connector shall meet the MIL-
C-26482 specication and shall be designed to interface
with the appropriate MIL-C-26482 connector. The connec-
tor backshell shall be an environmentally sealed shell that
oers excellent immersion capability. All conductors that
interface with the connector shall be encased in a single
jacket, and the outer diameter of this jacket shall be with-
in the backshell’s cable O.D. range to ensure proper seal-
ing. The backshell shall have a strain relief with enough
strength to support the cable slack under extreme weather
conditions. Recommended connectors are Cannon’s KPT
series, and recommended backshells are Glenair Series 37
cable sealing backshells.
The cable shall be the Orion Wire Combo-2207-2002-PVC-
GY or an equivalent cable that conforms to the following
specications:
● The RS-485 conductors shall be a twisted pair.
● The RS-232 and RS-485 conductors shall have nominal
capacitance conductor to conductor of less than 71pF/Ft
at 1 Khz.
● The RS-232 and RS-485 conductors shall have nominal
conductor DC resistance of less than 16.5 ohms/(304.8
m) at 68°F (20°C).
● The power conductors shall be one twisted pair with
nominal conductor DC resistance of less than 11.5
ohms/(304.8 m) at 68°F (20°C).
● Each wire bundle or the entire cable shall be shielded
with an aluminum/mylar shield with a drain wire.
The cable shall have a single continuous run with no
splices.
The cable shall be terminated only on the two farthest
ends of the cable.
