Access control
October 2008
Sensors & Transducers
Mimic Components has introduced a range of traffic lights that have been designed to control slowly moving traffic. The extruded, anodised and hot painted aluminium housing carries an IP65 rating making the units ideal for use in access control systems, residential hotels, apartment complexes and car parks. The angle of orientation may be varied for maximum visibility via an integral ratchet locked adjusting mechanism.
A selection of 1, 2 or 3-way units is available to suit all applications
The standard units are equipped with 220 V, 70 W long life filament lamps, rated for 8000 hours on average operating life. On request the units can be equipped with long life LEDs, extending the average operating life to 150 000 hours. All removable plastic parts are manufactured using Is PA6 30% glass fibre to cope with rugged outdoor conditions and extended exposure to sunlight.
