The Surface Patrol is a mobile temperature sensor used to detect possible freezing temperatures on the pavement. It features a non-contact infrared sensor for measuring pavement temperature, and also measures air temperature. The easy-to-use Surface Patrol is valuable for large agencies, such as Departments of Transportation, all the way down to smaller companies with only a few trucks.
The Surface Patrol pavement sensor is mounted outside your vehicle and continuously monitors road surface temperatures, providing instant feedback on road surface conditions. The Surface Patrol has a separate air temperature sensor and cabling so that it can be placed away from direct sunlight for accurate readings. The data retrieved from the Surface Patrol is accurate and real-time, making it a reliable method for collecting pavement information.
The Surface Patrol can be calibated in the field, ensuring you are always getting the most accurate readings. In addition, the pavement probe features a cone desing to protect the sensor from spary and winter elements that can decrease the accuracy of the readings. |
