Loading Dock Sensor Monitoring and Indication of Truck's Presence
Application: Signal the presence of a truck at a dock door
Challenges: Light needs to be visible from a distance
Solution: VTB Series Pick-to-Light Touch Button
Benefits: Bright illuminated base indicates presence of truck outside the dock doors
As trucks and other vehicles arrive at dock doors, it's best to signal their presence immediately upon arrival. Fortunately, there are single devices that can signal the presence of a truck and open the dock door without any additional pieces to install.
Description
The VTB Verification Touch Button has two functions. First, its LED base works as a remote indicator light, signaling inside the warehouse that the outside sensor has detected the presence of a truck. Second, the sensing portion of the LED provides a means for triggering the door opener; the operator places a finger in the sensing region, without having to apply any pressure.
