SPEEDsentry ® Shield - Radar Speed Signs

Portable Radar Speed SignsProviding Safety by Awareness™

SPEEDsentry Shield is the ideal radar speed sign when portability is paramount. Whether you need to move one sign or twenty, they can all fit in your vehicle. Using the SPEEDsentry Shield dynamic speed display to clear complaints, increase public awareness, or simply broaden your impact leads to better results because you'll use it more often, in more places.

  • Compact: Weighing only 15 lbs including battery, you can fit several Shields in the passenger seat and mount them almost anywhere; pole, trailer or vehicle.
  • Extended Battery Life: Lithium ion batteries provide longer life in a smaller package. Choose solar assist or AC supply for more permanent installations.
  • Durable: The Shield's welded aluminum enclosure, shatterproof shield and impact absorbing corners make it even tougher than our regular SPEEDsentry.
  • Simple to Program: Both the wireless PDA and onboard buttons are easy to understand.
  • Powerful Data: Easily download and review the days and times you want in the speed bins you choose.
  • Upgradeable: SPEEDsentry Shield is fully upgradeable to new options and can integrate easily with other products and services provided by All Traffic Solutions. Ask about how our PremierCare program can protect you even further.

Extreme Portability and Curb Appeal: The sign weighs less than 15 lbs, including the power source, so it is simple to move among locations. The thin profile provides an attractive installation without the need for auxiliary enclosures.

Shatterproof ¼ " UV Stabilized Lexan:The flexible, nearly indestructible polycarbonate absorbs energy, reducing the likelihood of damage upon impact.

Tamper Proof: Torx screws prevent unwanted access.

Stealth Mode: Turn off the digits and remove the "Your Speed" sign and this unobtrusive box collects true, unaffected traffic patterns, before or after your traffic calming efforts.

Resists Wear & Tear: Impact and skid-resistant corner guards protect during transport and the smooth; durable powder-coat resists graffiti.

High Intensity LEDs: These autodimming 30° LEDs combine with glare-resistant, UV-protected Lexan to increase the contrast and digit visibility.

Wireless Management: Program your settings, adjust your radar, check your battery and download your data without leaving the vehicle or touching the sign. (optional)

10 Second Install: Quickly attach or remove your sign from a mounting plate for unsurpassed simplicity.

Simple Mounting: The same display can be mounted to U-channel, square channel, any size round pole, trailer or hitch-mount using bolts or bands. The leveling swivel even lets you bolt to often less-than-vertical existing street signs.

Secure: Only the tamper-resistant end of mounting hardware is exposed, since all the removable features are within the pocket of the locked enclosure.

Tip: Mount multiple plates around town to simplify moving your signs.

Basic Button Control: Turn the sign on/off, toggle between stealth and display on mode and set the speed limit without the need for the PDA.

Wireless Management: Program your settings, adjust your radar, check your battery and download your data without leaving the vehicle or touching the sign.

Padded Softcase: The "Your Speed" sign slides securely to protect the Lexan. The entire display fits safely inside a padded carrying bag.

Maximum Battery Life: Achieve up to 2 weeks of running time between charges depending on road conditions and sign settings. Plug the sign directly into a wall outlet to recharge or remove the battery and charge it separately.

Internal Power Source: The battery or AC power* supply is self-contained within the sign, so there is no need for an additional cabinet nearby. (*commercial AC; municipal supply requires an additional enclosure)

Road Speed: See the user-defined speed limit setting that applies to the site where the data was collected.

85th Percentile: This is the speed below which 85% of the traffic is traveling. (definition)

Pace: The most popular 10mph window that captures the highest volume of traffic.

One Page Summary: All the key performance data within the data file is presented on one screen.

PDA Home:

Volume Analysis: Identify peak travel times and trends in addition to speed information.

Review the Days You Want: All days, a range of days or a specific day. You choose.

Easy Export: Use Excel or any other spreadsheet program for more detailed charts and graphs to suit your needs.

Prioritize: See the days and times with the worst violations. Determine when and if a problem exists.

Adjust speed bins: Determine your speed windows or ignore speeds below the threshold you define.

Identify Individuals: Isolate individual speed events to reveal a pattern allowing very targeted enforcement.

Review Settings: Different settings result in different behaviors. Review the settings history to ensure reports are based on the appropriate days.

Universal Mounting Brackets: The trailer accommodates any ATS sign easily. If your sign changes because your needs change, you don’t need to change your trailer!

See-through Construction: Open frame design minimally blocks line of sight.

Rust-proof Upper: Aluminum upper structure eliminates the risk of rust.

Solar Charging During Storage: The panels fold facing upward when the sign is lowered, allowing the batteries to remain fully charged during storage.

High Leverage Lift Arm: You need minimal force to lift our largest sign and a 60W solar assembly.

Removable Parts Storage: Lock your removeable trailer tongue and lift arm in the trailer. Prevent unauthorized moving without carrying pieces around to store separately.

Secure: Locking provisions are available for the battery box, jack stands, raise/lower pivot, wheel nuts* and axle* to prevent tampering (*optional).

Lightweight: Weighs a well-balanced 550 lbs, including a pair of batteries. Tow and set up easily by one person.

Multi-Axis leveling: Park where you have to so you can use the sign where you need to. Multiple pivot points allow you to swivel the sign (+-90), tilt (+-5%) and level (+-15%) for optimal viewing without moving the vehicle to an awkward angle.

Height to Sign (telescoping): The distance to the bottom of the sign is up to 68” from the hitch receiver. The additional distance to the ground will vary by vehicle.

Height to Sign (non-telescoping): The distance to the bottom of the sign is up to 40” from the hitch receiver. The additional distance to the ground will vary by vehicle.

Fits 1 ¼ or 2” receivers: All our hitch mounts include an adapter that will fit most vehicles in your fleet.

Maximum Portability: Use our standard portable post when ease of deployment is the most critical factor. Weighs only 25 lbs and provides up to 56” to the bottom of the sign. It collapses to a total dimension of 7” x 7” x 37”.

Maximum Height: Use the telescoping stand when mounting height takes priority. Weighs 50 lbs and telescopes to provide up to 86”” to the bottom of the sign. It collapses to a total dimension of 13” x 8” x 72”.

Stable Footprint: The collapsible legs unfold to provide a stable 68” x 38” (standard) and 138” x 63” (telescoping ) footprint.

Multiple Sizes: Available in approximately 20W, 60W (shown) or 120W capacities to fit the power needs of your configuration and location.

Universal Bracket: The pole bracket can be mounted to nearly any pole, whether single, multiple, small, large round or square.

Flexible Orientation: Change the connection point and angle of the bracket to ensure that the panel takes advantage of optimum sunshine.

Standard AC Supply (not show ): Available for the SPEEDsentry and SPEEDsentry Shield, this supply mounts within the sign and is appropriate for clean commercial AC sources.

Medium Duty AC Supply: Recommended for the SPEEDsentry and Shield, where a municipal AC source is being tapped. Uses additional surge protection and an industrial AC supply.

Heavy Duty AC Supply: Required for the instALERT or wherever there is a very dirty power source. Uses additional surge protection, an isolation transformer and an industrial AC supply.
