High power

The Pulsestar VCT6 features up to 500 W LED pulse drive power for high speed application and increased illumination distances.

Fast strobe capability

A fast repetition rate up to 10 kHz allows for capture of a sequence of images at high speed and at different exposure times to obtain the perfect take. The maximum pulse width is 2 ms, maximum duty cycle equals 3%, both at 100% power.

Designed for mobile use

Raytec Pulsestar VCT6 was developed particularly for mobile applications. The input power specification of 12-24V has been developed for this use case.

Attractive built-in features

The lights already integrate features relevant for traffic monitoring applications, like internal timing, intensity control, trigger input and long distance communications for synchronisation with the camera.

Housing options

The VCT6 illuminations are available in an IP65 rated enclosure or as a PCB version for OEM applications.

Wichtige Kriterien für die Wahl der richtigen Beleuchtung für Ihre Traffic-Anwendung ‒ Ausgeleuchteter Bereich

In dem ausgeleuchteten Bereich muss eine angemessene Lichtintensität vorherrschen. Man braucht mehr als eine punktuelle Beleuchtung, um mehrere Fahrspuren gleichzeitig adäquat ausleuchten zu können. Der Gesamtstromverbrauch, gemessen in Watt, zusammen mit Lumen ist ein Maß für die Effizienz einer Lichtquelle. Daher sollte bei der Auswahl einer Beleuchtung nicht nur die elektrische Leistung in Watt als einzige Kenngröße für die Intensität berücksichtigt werden, sondern auch der Abstrahlwinkel und die Bestrahlungsstärke, denn es gibt Unterschiede in der Effizienz bei den Beleuchtungssystemen verschiedener Hersteller.
