Description
The Dakota Alert DCHT-4000 is a wireless driveway sensor designed to detect vehicles entering or exiting a property. It utilizes a 25-foot rubber hose that, when driven over, triggers a wireless signal to a compatible Dakota Alert 4000 series receiver, such as the DCR-4000 or RE-4K Plus. This system is ideal for residential driveways, commercial drive-thrus, or service stations where vehicle detection is essential.
Key Features:
-
Reliable Vehicle Detection: The 25-foot, 3/8-inch diameter rubber hose detects vehicles by sensing the pressure of tires rolling over it.
-
Long-Range Wireless Transmission: Sends a signal up to one mile (line of sight) to a compatible Dakota Alert 4000 series receiver.
-
Weather-Resistant Design: The transmitter is housed in a durable, weatherproof enclosure suitable for outdoor installations.
-
Easy Installation: The hose lays across the driveway, connecting to the transmitter, which can be mounted on a wall, pole, or tree.
-
