The enclosure is versatile because it allows 3 types of installation:
| On-surface | Semi-underground | Underground | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Type of enclosure | Vaulted | Vaulted | Flat |
| Presence of node over the ground | Full node(40.25 mm) | Part of (~6 mm) | None (0 cm) |
| Rain inmunity | ✓ | ✓ | Partial |
| Puddle inmunity | ✓ | ✓ | Detection may fail if puddle appears |
| Vandalism/Robbery inmunity | Medium | High | High |
| Snowplow inmunity | No | Possible | ✓ |
| Installation process | Fast and easy | Special tools needed | Special tools needed |
| Tools needed | Normal drill | Industrial, big crown drill. Epoxy | Industrial, big crown drill. Epoxy |
| Can be dismantled for maintenance? | ✓ | ✘ | ✘ |
The device is protected inside a small and extremely tough enclosure.
It is IP68 rated, which means it remains waterproof even submerged in water. Each node is provided with professional screws and anchors, resistant to tampering and vandalism.
Besides, it is certified for IK10, the maximum rating too for external mechanical impacts: protected against 20 joules of impact (the equivalent to the impact of a 5 kg mass dropped from 400 mm above the impacted surface).
Easily reset by passing the magnet over the node. Wide range of temperature: -20ºC to 65ºC.
The user just needs to setup some basic parameters because it comes already programmed from factory.
Nodes come pre-configured and securized with individual keys. The user doesn’t need to open the nodes: 0 configuration required. Final configuration of the nodes can be done on the Remote Configuration Form in bulk.
For advanced radio settings, the user can always use the Smart Devices App: full configuration in under 1 minute.
After the nodes have been installed, the user remains in control thanks to the Remote Setup system: the user can reconfigure all the parameters easily from the Cloud.
Over-the-air set up via “remote configuration form”.
To easily update settings of each node such as sleep time, keep-alive time, night-mode…
Remotely update via LoRaWAN downlink radio packets.
Libelium Smart Parking was created to last. Apart from the robust enclosure, the electronic design focus on being low-power and the battery has a huge capacity of 10,400 mA·h.
Besides, the Night Mode saves energy during hours of low rotation.
All this can lead to 10+ years of uninterrupted operation.*
(*) Battery Life depends on parameters such as the number of packets sent per day, the distance from the nodes to the Base Station, etc.
The device is fully certified according to CE, FCC, IP68 (EN 60529) and IK10 (EN 50102). This is a real product ready for the main markets. Get here the official Product Compliance Documentation.
To enhance the experience for citizens and tourists, St. Pete Beach developed its parking plan, with 750 Libelium Smart Parking nodes on four of its most important areas: 9th Avenue, Gulf Way South, Pass-a-Grille Way, and Gulf Way North.
Libelium and Prosegur installed 100 parking nodes in the most emblematic hotel in Madrid.
Mobility management and the environmental impact caused by traffic are two of the major concerns for many municipalities today.
