SensMax Solar power system SPS20
The SensMax SPS20 power system offers an independent and reliable solution for operating pedestrian counting sensors and bicycle monitoring radars located in outdoor areas without access to the electrical grid. Specially developed for the SensMax TAC-B 3D-WP and TAC-B 4G models, the SPS20 guarantees continuous monitoring of people flows through the compact integration of a photovoltaic panel, a charge controller, and a LiFePO4 rechargeable battery.
How Does the Monitoring System Work?
The device captures solar energy and efficiently stores it in the LiFePO4 battery, which is intelligently managed to prevent overcharging or deep discharge. Power is constantly delivered to the pedestrian and bicycle traffic counting sensors, even in the most remote locations without internet or electricity. During periods without sunlight, the battery provides an autonomy of 65–85 hours (depending on sensor settings), ensuring uninterrupted statistical data collection in any season.
Integrated "All-in-One" Solution: Solar panel, controller, and battery designed exclusively to power outdoor radar counting sensors.
Technical Advantages for Counting Projects:
Rapid Installation of Monitoring Points – Pre-wired components simplify field assembly without requiring advanced electrical knowledge.
Intelligent Energy Management – Automatic switching between solar power and battery, ensuring continuous operation of counting equipment.
Maximum Outdoor Durability (IP67) – The waterproof enclosure protects the system against rain, snow, and dust, making it ideal for year-round monitoring.
Eco-Friendly Solution for Green Statistics – Reduces the carbon footprint of monitoring projects by utilizing renewable energy.
Extended Off-Grid Autonomy – Supports the operation of counting sensors for 65–85 hours without direct sunlight.
Practical Applications: Where Do We Implement Flow Monitoring?
Smart City Projects – Monitoring pedestrian and cyclist flows to optimize urban infrastructure and transportation planning.
Tourist Routes and Mountain Trails – Visitor counting in protected natural areas without cables or disturbing local wildlife.
Outdoor Markets and Kiosks – Collecting pedestrian traffic statistics to analyze business opportunities in off-grid areas.
National Parks and Nature Reserves – Monitoring visitor activity to justify funding, plan maintenance, and manage conservation.
Public Events and Festivals – Powering counting sensors at fairs, concerts, or sports competitions without noisy generators.
Urban Regeneration – Collecting precise pedestrian traffic data to guide investments in revitalized public spaces.
Botanical Gardens and Historical Monuments – Long-term analysis of visitor flow in cultural and heritage sites.
Recreation and Sports Facilities – Monitoring usage rates of swimming pools, sports fields, or playgrounds without additional infrastructure work.
Cruise Terminals and Tourist Ports – Passenger transit analysis to improve logistics and customer experience.
Impact on Operations & Key Benefits
The SPS20 system eliminates technical barriers to continuous visitor monitoring in off-grid areas. Municipalities, event organizers, and park managers can now obtain accurate data and statistics at reduced costs and without trenching or cabling work. This data serves as solid justification for efficient resource allocation, investment budget proposals, and improved visitor satisfaction.
