Weigh-In-Motion, a technology first perfected by an ancestor firm of Peek Traffic . . . Streeter Amet created weigh-in-motion technology in the early 20th century, in order to weigh railroad cars as they moved over a piezo sensor on the track. The benefits of weigh-in-motion have long since been converted for use in measuring commercial vehicle traffic on our highways. The ADR-WIM module brings weigh-in-motion capabilities to the Peek ADR line of products.
The technologically advanced multi-channel ADR-WIM card can
be installed in the three main Peek ADR products, the ADR-1000 Pro, ADR-2000 Pro, and ADR-3000 Pro. Consequently, it can be used for either semi-permanent
or permanent configurations. Installing a WIM card
enables an ADR unit to weigh heavy commercial vehicles while they travel at
high speeds, while simultaneously retaining the full functionality and ease
of use of the ADR series of counters/classifiers. Using one or two simply installed
subsurface piezoelectric weighing sensors (with optional
secondary sensors), the following types of data can be
accurately collected: arrival time, vehicle speed and
classification, gross vehicle weight, road surface
temperature, volumetric flow, individual axle weights and
spacings, overload indications, Equivalent Single Axle
Loadings (ESALs), gap and headway, and per vehicle
records.
Compatible with:
Site monitoring includes a four-lane capability on the
ADR1000/2000 or an eight-lane capability on the ADR-3000
range. Data storage is provided by internal memory or
removable PCMCIA cards of up to 8 MB capacity. Sites are
generally battery powered, but solar or line power backup
extends monitoring time indefinitely. The RS232 port,
when connected to a PC, reports real time data for alarm
analysis.

System Flexibility
The use of simply installed plug-in modules allows flexible
installation of multilane configurations to suit specific site
demands and provides ease of expansion during
manufacture or at a later date.
Any existing ADR-1000/2000/3000 can be upgraded in the
field or shop for WIM operations. The upgrade is simple
and cost-effective at most sites. Plug-in WIM modules,
easy to connect wire harnesses and flash loaded firmware
are the major components required for the upgrade.
