General
LED VARIABLE MESSAGE SIGNS
· Conforms to most stringent European and US standards (EN12966 certified and NEMA-TS4 compliant)
· Low cost of ownership over extended lifetime
· Failsafe operation increases safety in traffic applications
· Any interface, any protocol any transmission media
· Simple to operate and maintain
· PCB mounted LEDs provide for superior repetitive uniformity
LED variable Message Signs (LED VMS) can display multiple traffic symbols at low energy consumption. Led VMS’s are manufactured with the latest generation of LED’s providing high light intensity and long operating life. It can display any traffic symbol adjustable to the outdoor conditions within the light intensity range from 0 to 100% in 1% steps. Applied optical and mechanical design insures specified visibility and continuous reliable operation in any climate and environment. Failsafe – operator knows whether sign will operate correctly when switched on, even if not used for long time.
