1General description and intended use

The Parking Lot Sensor (PLS) with TPS110 sensor core (“the Product”, or “PLS”) is designed for detecting parked light

vehicles in parking lots. This user manual is valid for the PLS with TPS110 sensor core by Robert Bosch France SAS.

The Parking Lot Sensor with TPS110 sensor core is not designed for use in life-sustaining applications, safety-critical

applications or applications for which a malfunction could lead to bodily harm, death or severe property damage. The

Parking Lot Sensor with TPS110 sensor core is not designed for detection of heavy vehicle.

2Assembly and commissioning

2.1 Mandatory pre requirements

Network infrastructure is not included in the scope of delivery. Before installing the sensors, please ensure that an

adequate and sufficiently robust network infrastructure is available and working properly, namely: the LoRaWAN

backend and the associated management software are functional, the gateways are switched on and there is a stable

Internet connection established between the gateways and the backend.

2.2 Installation requirements

Warning

Read carefully and keep the user manual for future reference. The Product, as referenced in this

manual, comprises the complete hardware components for the Parking Lot Sensor, including the Cap,

Screw, Core and Base.

Follow these instructions and all information.

⇒ The Customer must comply with all applicable laws and regulations for the installation and

operation of the Product, and if necessary, obtain necessary approvals. The Customer must take

appropriate measures to avoid injury of third parties, for example, by them tripping over the Product.

Therefore, the Product should only be installed in a clearly designated parking space and should not,

for instance, be installed on the sidewalk.

Prior to starting the installation work, please ensure that all Product components (see Fig. 1 Parking Lot Sensor with

TPS110 sensor core), as well as required tools and material, are readily available.

2.3 Installation of the sensor base

Precaution

To ensure safe installation:

Do not install the sensor core (black part) into the sensor base

(grey part) before the final installation of the sensor base on the

ground.

Do not screw the sensor base on the ground!

Do not drill holes in the base!

Do not bring a magnet near the PLS (this would power-on the

device).

Avoid uninstalling and reinstalling the sensor core after the initial

installation into the sensor base.

Do not open the sensor core!

The sensor base must be fixed to the ground (substrate such as concrete, asphalt) with a two-component adhesive

from a leading supplier (e.g., DELO®, 3M®, …).

Customers have reported good experience with the following adhesive: DELO®-PUR 9692 (universal 2-component

polyurethane adhesive available in 50 ml and 200 ml cartridges).

INFORMATION:

For the bonding procedure, please follow the instructions of the adhesive manufacturer (e.g.,

temperature, safety information and work instructions).

A prior cleaning of the relevant place of installation (parking slot) should be clarified in advance with

the operator of the premises so that the treatment does not result in removal of existing coatings.

Preparation of the parking space

The parking space must be free of dirt, dust, oil, water and other contaminants.

It is recommended to clean the surface to remove contamination using a high-pressure cleaner and a burner. The PLS

must be installed in the center of the parking space (intersection of the two diagonals, see Fig. 3) in order to ensure

optimum sensor accuracy.

To provide the adhesive with a closed substrate, the ground surface must be free of any gaps or misalignment (see

Figure 4 Available parking space for sensor installation). This is not only crucial for the contact surface and the

adhesive effect of the product, but also to avoid structural issues when a car runs over it.

Figure 5 Substrate example (continuous) Figure 6 Substrate example (gap)

Precaution

Do not install the product on an unstable or uneven ground surface, like interlocking paving stone or

directly on the bare ground. These installations can harm the product!

Installation of the sensor base

Precaution

The bottom of the base has been processed with a plasma treatment to improve the adhesion of the

glue on the ground:

Take out the base of its protective wrap only just before putting down the adhesive there.

Do not touch the bottom side of the base with your hands or anything else.

Do not put the base on the ground before gluing, to avoid dust on the sensor base.

Ensure that all parts of the PLS will be protected and will be kept clean until the installation has been completed, so

that these parts will be used only within the described intended use.

Check that the adhesive is compatible with the ground and the base of the sensor.

Ensure that sufficient adhesive is uniformly spread over the bottom side of the sensor base.

Prepare the adhesive following the manufacturer instruction.

Please note that, as soon as the two components are mixed, the adhesive cures within a few minutes.

Precaution

Do not try to save adhesive by adding less adhesive per sensor base!

First, insufficient quantity of adhesive may subsequently lead the PLS to

detach from the ground and the PLS may get lost.

Second, if the adhesive is not uniformly spread-over the base, it could lead to localized

stresses and therefor to structural damages when a car runs over the product.

Once all precautions have been taken, you can proceed with the fixing of the sensor base to the ground (by applying light

pressure on it. See Fig. 8 Sensor base attachment). Make sure that the sensor base is thoroughly and uniformly fixed flat

against the ground, that the base is centered in the parking space and that the Bosch logo on the sensor base points

towards the access road (see Figure 9 Sensor base installed). Subsequent twisting of the sensor base is not possible.

Please follow the adhesive manufacturer’s recommendation regarding the cure time of the two-component adhesive.

To prevent damages to the sensor base, keep the parking space unused (no car or engine running over the PLS)

until the sensor installation is finalized.

We recommend installing several sensor bases first and only then inserting the sensor cores.

2.4 Installing the sensor core

Precaution

An improper installation could impact the seals and cause water to get into the sensor which will lead to

damages. A smooth and continuous operation of the parking lot sensor is at risk if the PLS is not

properly installed.

Do not install the PLS when it is raining or snowing.

Ensure that the inner side of the sensor base is completely dry and without impurity (i.e., dust, mud)

before installing the sensor core.

Make sure that the sealing rings on the cap and sensor are seated correctly.

Do not use damaged components and only use original replacement parts.

Do not open the sensor housing!

Risk of explosion: extreme heat can damage the battery and the sensor.

Do not expose the sensor to temperatures above 85 °C!

Do not expose the sensor to open flames!

When using a gas burner (for example, when removing weeds), keep a distance of at least 1.50 m between

the flame and the sensor!

The sensor can be screwed into the base after the adhesive has cured. Before the insertion, use an air-blower to clean

the base of any residual dust. To simplify insertion, the arrow on the bottom of the sensor points towards the Bosch

logo (see Figure 10 Installing/screwing in the sensor). The sensor should be completely screwed in to ensure optimum

teaching of the sensor. To tighten it, use the T20 screw and a T20 screwdriver and tightening torque of 1,8 to 2,2 Nm.

Close the opening with the sensor sealing cap afterward.

Figure 10 Installing the sensor - method

Align the mark as shown above.

First, push the sensor core on the logo side and ensure that the sealing O

ring part is well compressed on this sensor base side.

sensor core

Then, tilt the sensor core against the base until the sealing O ring is

completely compressed on the sensor base.

Figure 11 Installing the sensor – example

Respecting the insertion process described above is necessary for an easy and smooth installation, and

to ensure that the core is correctly placed into the base for a good watertightness.

Respecting the tightening torque is important to avoid damaging the screw pitch of the base.

Insert completely the sensor core into the base before screwing!

Do not install the core with your feet!

Do not use a blunt object (like a hammer) to insert the core into the base!
