Single Channel Vehicle Loop Detector with Low Power Consumption The EDI BX Series is a low-power, single-channel loop detector designed for reliable vehicle presence detection in access control, parking, and perimeter security applications. Featuring TruePresence® technology, the BX maintains detection during brief power interruptions and supports dual output channels, sensitivity boost, and selectable loop frequencies to reduce cross-talk in multi-lane setups. Its ultra-low power consumption makes it ideal for solar-powered gate systems, as well as traditional hardwired installations. Models are available with relay or solid-state outputs to meet a variety of system configurations. Key Features Dual output channels with selectable detection modes TruePresence® detection maintains presence while a vehicle remains Eight sensitivity levels for fine-tuned detection accuracy Four loop frequency settings to prevent cross-talk in multi-lane setups Sensitivity boost for high-bed or slow-moving vehicles Selectable call delay for smoother gate activation timing Call memory preserves detection through brief power loss Fail-safe or fail-secure support on relay models Solid-state open-collector output on BX-LP-SS Low power consumption ideal for solar-powered gate systems LED indicators for power, detection, and loop faults Technical Specifications Model Variants: BX-LP, BX-LP-24, BX-LP-SS Input Voltage: 12 VDC (BX-LP), 24 VDC (BX-LP-24), 12–24 VDC (BX-LP-SS) Output Type: Relay (BX-LP, BX-LP-24), Solid-State Open Collector (BX-LP-SS) Loop Frequency: 20–100 kHz (4 selectable) Sensitivity Levels: 8 Detection Modes: Presence, Pulse-on-Entry, Pulse-on-Exit Power Consumption: 1.1 to 5.5 mA (no detect) Operating Temperature: -35°F to +165°F (-37°C to +74°C) Dimensions: 3” H × 1.75” W × 4.3” D Weight: 8.8 oz Brand: Reno A&E / EDI Note: Loop harness not included Variant Options BX-LP-24: 24 VDC input, relay outputs Conclusion The EDI BX Series offers precision vehicle detection with ultra-low power draw, making it ideal for automated gates, solar-powered installations, and high-security access systems. Whether you need relay outputs or solid-state control, BX detectors deliver dependable, long-term performance in critical perimeter environments. Cut Sheet Installation / User Manual
