A Bulgarian company that is a leader in the engineering and distribution of security systems, with more than thirty years on the market, asked Stagnoli for its cooperation, as it needed a kit of four traffic lights combined with a control unit able to manage them. The customer needed to manage all the entrances to the car park, accessed by a ramp crossing its four levels:
- Street level (p0);
- Level -1;
- Level -2;
- Level -3.
It was essential for the customer to be able to control access to the ramp, preventing several vehicles from driving along it in opposite directions.
After gathering all the customer’s information and requirements, Stagnoli immediately set to work to find the best solution for optimal management of the car park and its traffic lights.
How did we handle the request? By installing the “Saturno” car park traffic light control unit
Our customer’s main requirement was to install one traffic light at the ramp entrance (level 0) and three more at the exits of the various car park levels. It was also essential to program all the traffic lights to manage access to the car park as effectively as possible:
- With a user exiting, three traffic lights had to turn red and one green (the one on the level the user is exiting from);
- With no vehicles moving, all the traffic lights at the level exits had to be red, while the one at the ramp entrance had to be green.
To meet all the customer’s requirements, Stagnoli proposed:
- Installing the car park traffic light control unit SATURNO, which thanks to its modularity can manage up to 10 traffic lights simultaneously. Among its many modes for zoned and multi-storey car parks, SATURNO can also control the system by priority: with one exit traffic light on each level and one entrance traffic light at street level, the control unit allows a default behaviour to be set with the entrance light green and all the others red. The SATURNO board consists of a Master (code SATURNO-M) and four Slaves (code SATURNO-S), one per traffic light.
- Installing four CHRONOS traffic lights multi-voltage units with high-brightness LEDs (code CHR2LRV), featuring a contemporary design and made with top-quality materials;
- Installing three single-channel metal mass sensors (code DA021).
- Adopting a safety button, to be wired to the dedicated input of the master or of the nearest traffic light, allowing traffic flow to be managed even in an emergency.
