Details 

 By far the most common application of Wanco radar-speed signs is for traffic calming in locations where motorists regularly travel at unsafe speeds over the posted speed limit, including school zones, neighborhoods, and high-incident locations. 

Wanco radar-speed signs feature configurable settings and input for auxiliary equipment, such as caution beacons. Above the user-configured speed setting, the sign flashes the motorist’s speed. At excessive speeds, the sign flashes a user-selected message. Below the speed limit, the display remains blank.

The speed display includes optical lenses and sun shades over bright LED characters, producing superior visibility. The display is available with 13- or 26-inch characters. Both sizes can display two characters for miles per hour and three characters for kilometers per hour.

A typical pole-mount configuration includes the speed display, a control box, battery box, solar panel, and all necessary wiring. A regulatory speed limit sign is optional, as are a variety of auxiliary devices.
