EMX ULTRA-PLG Plug-In Loop Detector

Plug-In Vehicle Detector with Detect-on-Stop and Dual Outputs

The EMX ULTRA-PLG is a compact plug-in vehicle loop detector engineered for access control and safety applications. This powerful unit features EMX’s exclusive DETECT-ON-STOP™ (DOS®) technology, enabling detection only when a vehicle comes to a complete stop - ideal for reducing false triggers in tight spaces or cross-traffic zones. The ULTRAMETER™ sensitivity display simplifies installation and tuning, while ten sensitivity levels and four frequency settings allow for precise operation and minimal interference in multi-loop environments.

Key Features

• DETECT-ON-STOP™ (DOS®) - Activates detection only when a vehicle stops on the loop
• ULTRAMETER™ Sensitivity Display - Visual aid for optimal loop tuning and setup
• Dual Outputs - Includes solid-state presence and configurable Output B
• 4 Frequency Settings - Prevents crosstalk in multi-loop systems
• Automatic Sensitivity Boost (ASB) - Prevents detection loss from high-bed vehicles
• Selectable Presence Modes - Infinite or 5-minute hold time options
• Fail-Safe/Fail-Secure Support - DIP-switch configurable response to loop faults
• Compact Plug-In Design - Compatible with many standard gate operators
• Low Power Consumption - Draws just 15 mA for green system efficiency
• CE Compliant - Meets global safety and performance standards
