BEA MATRIX-S12-24 Single Channel Vehicle Loop Detector UAE
BEA MATRIX-S12-24 is a professional single-channel inductive vehicle loop detector designed for reliable vehicle detection in automatic gates, parking barriers, industrial doors and access control systems. Operating from a 12–24V AC/DC power supply, the MATRIX-S12-24 provides automatic tuning, adjustable sensitivity and fast vehicle detection for demanding automation applications.
The detector monitors an inductive loop installed in the road surface and detects changes in loop inductance when a vehicle enters the detection area. This signal can then be used by a parking barrier, automatic gate or access control system for vehicle presence, opening or safety functions.

Single Channel Inductive Vehicle Detection
The BEA MATRIX-S12-24 monitors one inductive vehicle loop. When a vehicle moves over or remains above the loop, the detector identifies the change in inductance and sends the programmed relay output to the connected automation system.
This makes the MATRIX-S12-24 suitable for vehicle presence detection, automatic gate activation and parking barrier safety applications.
12–24V AC/DC Power Supply
The MATRIX-S12-24 operates from 12 to 24V AC or DC, making it suitable for many low-voltage gate, parking and access-control installations.
For installations requiring direct mains power, BEA also offers the MATRIX-S220 single-channel detector with a 220–240V AC supply.
Automatic Loop Tuning
The BEA MATRIX automatically tunes itself to the connected inductive loop. This simplifies commissioning and helps provide stable vehicle detection after installation.
Adjustable Vehicle Detection Sensitivity
Detection sensitivity can be adjusted between approximately 0.005% and 0.5% ΔL/L. This allows the detector to be configured according to the loop design, installation conditions and vehicles being detected.
Presence & Pulse Detection Modes
The MATRIX-S12-24 supports both presence and pulse detection. Presence mode can maintain the detection output while a vehicle remains over the loop, while pulse operation provides a short output signal for compatible automation and counting functions.
Pulse duration can be configured for 100 ms or 500 ms.
25 ms Fast Reaction Time
With a specified reaction time of approximately 25 milliseconds, the MATRIX provides fast response for vehicle detection in automatic parking and gate-control applications.
BEA Loop Detector for Parking Barriers
The BEA MATRIX-S12-24 can be integrated with compatible automatic parking barriers and boom gates. Depending on the barrier controller and wiring configuration, the loop detector can be used for vehicle detection, barrier activation or safety functions.
Vehicle Detection for Automatic Gates
The detector can also be used with compatible automatic sliding gates and swing gates. A correctly installed loop can detect approaching or present vehicles and provide a relay signal to the gate control board.
Industrial Doors & Access Control
BEA MATRIX loop detectors are also suitable for vehicle detection at industrial doors, loading areas, warehouses, controlled entrances and access-control systems where reliable metallic vehicle detection is required.
BEA MATRIX Loop Detector Models
| Model | Channels | Power Supply |
|---|---|---|
| MATRIX-S12-24 | Single Loop | 12–24V AC/DC |
| MATRIX-D12-24 | Double Loop | 12–24V AC/DC |
| MATRIX-S220 | Single Loop | 220–240V AC |
| MATRIX-D220 | Double Loop | 220–240V AC |
Choosing the Correct BEA MATRIX Detector
Choose the MATRIX model according to the required number of vehicle loops and available power supply. For one loop with a low-voltage supply, the MATRIX-S12-24 is the correct version. Applications requiring two loops should use a compatible MATRIX-D model.
The inductive loop dimensions, number of turns, feeder cable, road installation and detector settings should also be selected according to the vehicle detection application.
