EMX ULTRA-MVP MULTI-VOLTAGE VEHICLE LOOP DETECTOR ULT-MVP 12VDC TO 240VAC

EMX ULTRA-MVP MULTI-VOLTAGE VEHICLE LOOP DETECTOR ULT-MVP 12VDC TO 240VAC

The EMX ULTRA-MVP is the single-channel multi-voltage detector in the ULTRALOOP family. It is a strong service replacement choice when the job requires broad voltage flexibility and a compact 11-pin detector format. The detector connects to a properly installed inductive loop and monitors the loop field for a vehicle. When a vehicle is present, it can operate its relay output according to the selected mode. For tight driveways, busy drive aisles, and parking controls, the Detect-On-Stop feature can help reduce nuisance activation from vehicles passing near the loop without stopping. It is not the same as the two-channel ULTRA-MVP-2, and it should not be used as a substitute when two independent loop inputs are required.

Compatible With

This compatibility list is written for common field use and product-family matching. Always verify the operator manual, control-board input, socket, wiring, voltage, and installed part number before ordering.

• Single-loop gate, parking, barrier, and access-control applications needing multi-voltage detector input
• Exit loop, safety loop, center loop, shadow loop, hold-open, and pulse output positions when supported by the operator
• 12-60 VDC or 12-240 VAC style ULTRA-MVP applications when the installed model and wiring match
• Compatible 11-pin DIN rail socket or wire harness installations
• Multi-loop sites where frequency selection helps reduce crosstalk
• Not a substitute for ULTRA-MVP-2 when two independent loop channels are required

Technician Note

Loop detector problems are often caused by the loop circuit, pavement damage, moisture intrusion, incorrect socket wiring, or wrong output mode. Test the loop and verify the control input before assuming the detector alone is bad.

Before Ordering

• Confirm detector form factor: plug-in, terminal block, DIN rail, or 11-pin socket.
• Confirm supply voltage and AC/DC requirements.
• Check loop resistance, inductance, and insulation condition.
• Match output mode to the operator input: pulse, presence, safety, exit, or directional logic.
• Verify whether the site also requires monitored entrapment protection devices.

Professional Advisory

Vehicle loop detectors are control accessories and are not a substitute for required monitored safety photoeyes or safety edges. For high-voltage cabinets, unsafe gate movement, or unknown wiring, use a qualified gate technician.

Product Questions and Answers

Is ULTRA-MVP a single-channel or two-channel detector?

ULTRA-MVP is the single-channel version. Use ULTRA-MVP-2 when the installation requires two independent loop channels in one detector.

What is Detect-On-Stop used for?

Detect-On-Stop helps the detector respond when a vehicle comes to a stop on the loop, which can reduce nuisance detection from cross traffic in tight areas.

Can this replace a DTEK-MVP?

Only if the socket, wiring, voltage range, output functions, and operator requirements match. They are related multi-voltage loop detectors but not identical parts.

Does this work with any loop wire?

It must be connected to a properly installed loop within the supported inductance range. Damaged pavement loops can still cause faults or false detections.

What should be verified before ordering?

Verify channel count, connector style, AC/DC voltage, loop condition, output mode, and whether the site needs single-channel ULTRA-MVP or two-channel ULTRA-MVP-2.
