Product Overview

The AXIS BA102DM is a professional-grade dual mode backup alarm designed to enhance worker and pedestrian safety during vehicle and machinery reversing operations across industrial, commercial, and construction environments. The unique dual-mode functionality allows operators or fleet managers to select between traditional beep tone (1.2kHz frequency) ideal for general commercial applications, or broadband squawk/white noise ideal for residential areas, noise-sensitive environments, or locations where directional sound localization is critical for worker safety. Traditional beep alarms can blend into ambient noise or cause noise pollution complaints in residential areas, while broadband white noise provides easier sound source localization allowing pedestrians to quickly identify the reversing vehicle's direction and distance. The exceptional 12-80V operating voltage range eliminates the need for multiple alarm models across mixed fleets operating different electrical systems - the same alarm works on 12V light commercial vehicles, 24V heavy trucks and buses, 48V mining equipment, and industrial machinery up to 80V, simplifying fleet parts inventory and reducing procurement complexity. The 102dB sound output ensures audible warnings across noisy industrial environments including construction sites with operating machinery, mining operations with crushing equipment, and warehouses with forklifts and conveyor systems. The IP67 rating provides complete dust protection and waterproof performance during high-pressure washing, submersion during creek crossings, and continuous exposure to rain, mud, and industrial fluids. The nylon-epoxy encapsulated housing withstands impacts from loading docks, dropped materials, and vehicle collisions while resisting chemical degradation from fuels, oils, hydraulic fluids, and cleaning solvents commonly encountered in industrial operations.

Important Notes:

Installation Requires Electrical Knowledge: Proper wiring to reversing light circuit requires understanding of vehicle electrical systems. Professional installation recommended.

Sound Level Regulations Vary: Check local regulations regarding backup alarm sound levels and types. Some jurisdictions mandate specific alarm types or sound levels.

Beep vs Broadband Selection: Choose beep mode for traditional compliance, broadband mode for residential areas or enhanced directional localization.

Mounting Location Critical: Position alarm with clear sound projection rearward. Obstructions reduce effective warning distance.

Regular Testing Required: Test alarm functionality weekly. Failures compromise worker safety and may violate workplace safety regulations.

Key Features

Extreme Temperature Range - Operates -40°C to +85°C suitable for Arctic cold and desert heat without performance degradation.

Beep Mode (1.2kHz) - Traditional backup alarm tone for general commercial and industrial compliance.

Broadband Mode - White noise/squawk provides enhanced directional localization reducing ambient noise pollution.

Compact Design - 69H x 70W x 40D mm size fits tight mounting locations on trucks, machinery, and equipment.

102mm Bracket Mounting - Standard bracket centres allow secure installation with anti-vibration mounting.

Low Current Draw - 250mA consumption minimizes electrical system load suitable for vehicles with extensive auxiliary equipment.

15W Power Rating - Efficient power usage while maintaining high sound output levels.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What's the difference between beep mode and broadband mode, and which should I use?

A: Beep mode produces traditional 1.2kHz tone - the familiar "beep-beep-beep" sound most people associate with reversing vehicles. It's loud, penetrates ambient noise well, and meets standard compliance requirements. Broadband mode produces white noise or "squawk" sound that's easier for human ears to localize directionally - pedestrians can quickly determine which direction the reversing vehicle is coming from. Broadband is preferred in residential areas (less annoying than beeping), noise-sensitive environments, and situations where workers need precise directional awareness. Some jurisdictions mandate broadband for residential construction sites to reduce noise complaints. Choose beep for traditional industrial sites, broadband for residential areas or enhanced worker safety through better sound localization.

Q: How do I wire this alarm to my vehicle or machinery?

A: The alarm connects to your reversing light circuit so it activates automatically when reverse gear is selected. Locate your reversing light positive wire (usually found at the reversing light assembly or gearbox switch), connect the alarm's positive wire to this circuit, and connect the alarm's negative wire to vehicle chassis ground. When you select reverse gear, power flows to reversing lights AND backup alarm simultaneously. The 12-80V range means polarity and voltage compatibility aren't concerns for most applications. However, proper installation requires identifying correct reversing circuit wires and ensuring secure weatherproof connections. Professional installation is strongly recommended for liability reasons - improperly installed backup alarms may fail to operate when needed, creating serious safety and legal consequences.

Q: Will this work on my 12V caravan or motorhome?

A: Absolutely, the 12-80V range includes standard 12V systems. However, caravans and motorhomes typically reverse using the tow vehicle's reversing circuit, not an independent caravan reversing system. You'll need to tap into the tow vehicle's reversing light circuit at the trailer connector (usually pin 8 on 7-pin flat or 12-pin connectors) to provide trigger signal. Alternatively, install a reversing switch activated by the caravan's breakaway system or manual switch. For motorhomes with integrated chassis, installation is straightforward - wire to the motorhome's own reversing light circuit. Consider broadband mode for caravan parks and camping areas where beeping may disturb nearby campers during reversing maneuvers.

Q: Is 102dB loud enough for construction sites and mining operations?

A: Yes, 102dB is sufficient for most industrial environments including construction sites, warehouses, and open-pit mining operations. For reference, 102dB at 1 metre distance remains audible 30-50 metres away in typical industrial ambient noise (85-95dB). However, effectiveness depends on mounting location, obstructions, and ambient noise levels. In extremely loud environments (near crushing equipment, inside processing plants with 100+dB ambient), workers should rely on visual awareness and spotters rather than audible alarms alone. Some heavy mining equipment uses multiple alarms or higher-output models (110dB+) for extreme conditions. For standard reversing operations in typical industrial noise, 102dB meets regulatory requirements and provides adequate warning.

Q: How do I switch between beep and broadband modes?

A: Mode selection method depends on the specific model configuration - some BA102DM units have physical switches, others use jumper wire configurations, and some require reconnecting internal wires. Consult the installation manual included with your alarm for exact mode-switching instructions. Generally, mode selection is set during installation and not intended for frequent switching. Choose the appropriate mode for your primary operating environment during initial installation. If you regularly operate in both industrial and residential environments, consider installing two alarms with different modes, or select broadband as the more versatile option suitable for both environments while reducing noise pollution complaints.
