AL G9 Revision X released - Upgrade-able by Memocard

New improvements to the AL G9 products are Here. RX sensor gets a detachable sensor cable making it easier to mount or deinstall the product when needed.

• Waterproof connector 1 meter from the sensor head
• Connecting cable adds 4 more meters to the length
• Thick shielded cable prevents interference and mechanical damage
• Cable stress relief is now inside the sensor making it smaller
• Angled cable exit allows 360 degrees of cable movement
• Optional extension cables are available

RX brings you:

• Better laser sensitivity (+15%)
• Improved parking assistant performance
• Wider angle protection (up to ±12°H ±12°V)

RX Control Box is now upgrade-able by plug in Memocards

RX brings on even more:

• Improved power line filtering
• Fully effective from 10V to 17V power supply

EU Laboratory Approves Class 1 Laser device

Austrian Research Centers ARC have certified that the AL G9 meets international safety standards, specifically the IEC 60825-1 in regard to the laser radiation safety. Certification of this type is mandatory for all products that contain Laser or LED and are to be sold within the European Union. Drastic sanctions await manufacturers and/or sellers of uncertified products.

AL G9 has been certified as a Class 1 Laser device which means that it emits a large diameter beam and is safe for use under all reasonably-anticipated conditions of use. Looking at the beam of any laser device regardless of the classification is of course not advised.

Homologation certificate issued for the G9

After the AL G9 had been successfully tested at the SIQ Laboratories for compliance to the CE mark requirements we applied for an even higher quality standard, the Automotive Directive standard or more commonly known as Homologation testing.

The Homologation certificate received from the Croatian State office for Metrology is yet another high quality benchmark that this product has passed. With the E25 mark label the G9 can now be legally installed in vehicles at vehicle manufacturing plants as an original car part.

G9 Angle Coverage increased to 30 degrees

To give a wider angle of laser detection the front and rear of the G9 receiver were redesigned and a special optical net was added in front of the four detector diodes. Total angle coverage is now 30 degrees per each sensor which gives a comfortable margin for picking up threats to the side of your car even if the sensors are not perfectly aligned during installation.

Most competitor laser based parking sensors are still using heavy optics that are unable to properly pick up the laser echo signal, limiting the angle coverage and leaving the users car vulnerable to side threats. One such product even goes so far as to allow only a 15 degrees front coverage which then requires a multiple sensor installation with absolutely no margin for mounting misalignments.

In the field of angle protection the AL G9 will continue to develop optical and electronic circuitry widening the performance gap with the competition even more.
