Description
Fortel Traffic’s VCalm®SM is a powerful full-matrix traffic calming sign, leveraging trusted VCalm® components embedded within a MUTCD-compliant retroreflective regulatory sign.
Brightest Display
VCalm® utilizes high-volume, high-intensity, tightly-clustered LEDs to maintain the highest visibility possible. This proven method of authoritative message presentation demands driver’s attention, making it the most effective traffic calming sign on the market.
Simplest Programming
SD Card provides practically limitless data storage space (40 years of data per gigabyte) and makes programming and data retrieval simple and affordable. (SDHC compatible) VSpeed™Online is the ultimate management software that gives the ability to program signs, simulate functionality, analyze data, and deploy configuration changes through remote access or SD cards.
Lowest Power Consumption
VCalm® uses proprietary PWMS™ LED technology that consumes 50% less power than common LED technology. Our programming delivers exceptional autonomy for solar/battery installations in a much smaller package size.
Unrivaled Versatility
Supports Instant Critical Messaging as well as custom messaging based on unique road conditions, activities, or events. Multiple independently scheduled vehicle speed thresholds can trigger any variation of messages and/or auxiliary devices.
Strongest Construction
VCalm® maintains superior construction and durability with high quality components and no moving parts. The design meets the NEMA-3R specifications, and many of the VCalm® signs have withstood severe conditions, including hurricanes, fires, and extreme temperatures. VCalm® has consistently proven to be the longest lasting speed sign in the industry.
Easy and Accurate Reporting
Traffic Data Acquisition System (TDAS) collects the fastest and slowest speed for each vehicle. The software uses this data to calculate the percentage of slowing vehicles and prove the device’s effectiveness.
