TECHNOLOGY

P D Technology specialises in creating advanced technological solutions for the roller shutter market.

Please read through the information below, which gives an insight into a number of the company’s specialist areas/products.

TETRA PROOF RADIO TRANSMISSION:

WHAT IS TETRA?

TETRA (Terrestrial Trunked Radio Access) is the only digital mobile radio technology that has been accepted for use throughout Europe. TETRA provides excellent quality and low error rates for non-voice data traffic. It uses a technique called TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) with four user channels, interleaved with one carrier and 25KHz spacing between carriers. This makes it inherently efficient and reliable.

P D Technology has been involved with TETRA products since they were first introduced to the marketplace. The article below shows the company’s proactive approach to integrating the best technology.

‘THE NEW GENERATION’

‘One example of a module developer who was involved early on with TETRA compatible receivers is Bradford based P D Technology Ltd. This company has successfully produced a low cost 433MHz band receiver module with a narrow band of 300 KHz for general telemetry, which can be claimed as TETRA proof. The company’s TPR433 receiver module was one of the first units tested at Dolphin Telecommunications test site in Basingstoke, coming through with flying colours. Successful transmissions were made from PDT-KF04-433RC and PDT KF02-433RC transmitters to the TPR-433 receiver module even when a simulated TETRA system was put in very close proximity.

P D Technology Ltd has supplied thousands of their TPR-433 Receiver Modules for all types of access control applications and is designing products for a number of companies not associated with access control using their enhanced transmitter and receiver expertise. P D Technology Ltd offers a complete service from product design, manufacture and after sales support.

WIRELESS NETWORKS:

P D Technology has developed a number of wireless applications for the roller shutter control market. The groundbreaking technology is based on the same principle as the company’s roller shutter remote handsets.

By integrating the technology into other applications the company has opened up various different control methods for both the commercial and domestic markets. Wireless Key switches incorporating movement detection software, enable the company to provide a key switch that if moved from its set location can delete itself from the system so entry can no longer be gained.

The standard and anti-vandal Key Pads provide excellent security within the commercial and domestic environments. Removing the need for wiring gives greater flexibility for the location of the keypad.

PATENTED TECHNOLOGY:

P D Technology has a number of registered patents for the design and manufacture of its control equipment. The patents show a cutting edge design approach and indicate that P D Technology are at the forefront of the roller shutter control industry.

FIRE-RESISTING ROLLER SHUTTER CONTROL:

Electronic Fire-Resisting Roller Shutters are now required to be fitted with Audio/Visual Warning as standard as a mandatory requirement of the machinery directive. P D Technology has developed a fire panel that is the ultimate in fire control. The technology behind the panel allows it to control a fire shutter in a fire situation with total precision. The panel is smart enough to instruct the fire shutter to act as a smoke barrier and to then only close once both audio and visual warnings have been carried out
