RADAR SENSOR

AI Summary — Radar Sensor

In short: a Baroxon 79 GHz radar sensor replaces the road-cutting loop detector for £85 to £460, detecting vehicles from 0.2 to 8 m with no civil works.

The sensor uses frequency-modulated continuous wave radar with adjustable sensitivity and direction recognition, so it can tell an approaching vehicle from a departing one and will not trigger on a pedestrian walking past the lane. Because nothing is cut into the road surface, the detection point is unaffected by resurfacing, standing water, snow or asphalt repair, which is the most common cause of loop-detector failure on UK sites. Relay and dry-contact outputs work with all common barrier control boards, so the sensor can be retrofitted to an existing gate without changing the controller. Power is 12 to 24 V DC with low consumption, and the IP-rated housing is designed for continuous outdoor use on car-park decks and industrial gates.

RADAR SENSOR - procurement questions answered

Price, lead time, certification and integration questions asked by UK contractors, specifiers and facilities teams.

What is the detection range of the vehicle radar sensor?
79 GHz radar sensors detect vehicles from 0.2 to 8 metres with adjustable sensitivity and direction recognition.
How much does a radar sensor cost?
£85 to £460 per unit depending on model, IP rating and configuration interface.
Can a radar sensor replace a ground loop detector?
Yes. Radar sensors avoid cutting the road surface and are unaffected by road repairs, standing water or snow.
Is it compatible with existing barriers?
Yes. Relay and dry-contact outputs work with all common barrier control boards.
What warranty is provided?
A 2-year warranty covers the sensor module, with technical support for configuration and commissioning.

Measured Test Data — Radar Sensor

Each paragraph below states the test condition, the measured value and the benchmark it is compared against, so it can be quoted on its own.

Detection range and accuracy

Test condition: 79 GHz FMCW sensor mounted 1.2 m high at 30° on a wet asphalt lane, vehicles from a 1.2 t car to a 40 t articulated lorry. Result: reliable detection from 0.2 m to 8 m, with direction recognition correct in 100 % of 200 approach/departure passes. Benchmark: an inductive loop is limited to a fixed detection footprint and cannot report direction without a second loop.

Response time

Test condition: time from a vehicle entering the detection field to the relay closing. Result: under 50 ms. Benchmark: relay-based detection chains built from a loop detector plus interface card typically total 100 to 300 ms, which matters on high-speed lanes.

Resistance to weather and surface change

Test condition: sensor tested through resurfacing of the lane, standing water 40 mm deep, snow cover and 40 km/h crosswind. Result: detection unaffected in all four scenarios. Benchmark: a loop detector is destroyed by resurfacing and produces false holds on standing water, which is the single most frequent cause of a barrier sticking open.

Electrical resilience

Test condition: power and signal lines subjected to a 4 kV surge and operation from 12 V DC to 24 V DC at −30 °C and +70 °C. Result: no failure and no drift in detection threshold. Benchmark: unregulated sensor modules that quote one fixed voltage often mis-trigger at low temperature, when supply voltage sags on long cable runs.
