ITE Compliant LED Traffic Signal Module Performance Specifications
All LED Ball Signal Modules (8 inch (200mm) and 12 inch (300mm)
shall be fully compliant to the ITE VTCSH LED Circular Supplement specifications dated and adopted June
27, 2005. Compliance to the ITE VTCSH-2 Interim Purchase Specification is not sufficient, and will not
substitute for compliance to the ITE VTCSH LED Circular Supplement specifications. Additionally, prior to bid
award, the manufacturer shall submit to purchaser, reports from ETL/Intertek, that certify full compliance of
all LED ball signal modules to the entire ITE specification. These tests should include but not be limited to
the luminous intensity measurements and requirements outlined in the ITE specification sections 6.4.4
through 6.4.4.4.2 (25°C and 74°C / 49°C). Evidence of full compliance to all required testing methods,
procedures and sections as outlined in the above ITE document Figure 2, Design Qualification Testing Flow
Chart must be included without any exceptions, changes or omissions. The manufacturer must also submit
a data sheet showing the exact catalog number of the items submitted on the bid and the Independent
Lab report must show full qualification of this catalog number.
To ensure optimal quality of illumination; uniformity; reliability; and appearance, all ball traffic signal
modules shall utilize Hi-flux LEDs rated at 1-watt or higher, as their source of illumination. To ensure
competency of design and manufacturing, manufacturers of ball, arrow, and pedestrian signal modules
shall have a minimum of 7 years of experience in utilizing Hi-flux LEDs rated at 1-watt or higher, as the source
of illumination in their ball traffic signal modules. Additionally, manufacturers must have utilized in excess of
20 million Hi-flux LEDs in their LED traffic signal modules during the most recent 10 year period.
All LED 12 inch (300 mm) Arrow Signal Modules
shall be fully compliant to the “Omni-directional” specifications of the ITE VTCSH - LED Vehicle Arrow Traffic Signal Supplement adopted July 1, 2007.
Additionally, prior to bid award, the manufacturer shall submit to purchaser, reports from ETL/Intertek that certify full compliance of all LED Arrow signal
modules. These tests should include but not be limited to the luminous intensity measurements and requirements outlined in the ITE specification
sections 6.4.4 through 6.4.4.4.2 (25°C and 74°C / 49°C). Evidence of full compliance to all required testing methods, procedures and sections as
outlined in the above ITE document Attachment 1, “Design Qualification Testing Flow Chart” must be included without any exceptions, changes or
omissions The manufacturer must also submit a data sheet showing the exact catalog number of the items submitted on the bid and the Independent
Lab report must show full qualification of this catalog number.
All LED 16x18 Countdown Pedestrian Signal Modules
shall be fully compliant to the ITE PTCSI Part-2: LED Pedestrian Traffic Sig nal Modules specifications adopted August 4, 2010 or the latest adopted version
as listed on the ITE website at time of bid. Additionally, prior to bid award, the manufacturer shall submit to purchaser, reports from ETL/Intertek that certify
full compliance of LED signal modules, to these specifications. Evidence of full compliance to all required testing methods, procedures and sections as
outlined in the above ITE document Attachment 2, “Design Qualification Testing Flow Chart” must be included without any exceptions, changes or
omissions. The manufacturer must also submit a data sheet showing the exact catalog number of the items submitted on the bid and the Independent
Lab report must show full qualification of this catalog number. Combination hand/person pedestrian signal modules shall incorporate separate power
supplies for the hand and the person icons.
In addition to, and in excess of the above applicable ITE specification compliance, the on-board circuitry of all LED traffic signal modules shall include
voltage surge protection, to withstand high-repetition noise transients and low-repetition high-energy transients as stated in Section 2.1.8, NEMA Standard
TS 2-2003. In addition, the module shall comply with the following standards: IEC 1000-4-5 at 3kV with a 2 ohm source impedance, ANSI/IEEE
C62, 41-2002; IEC 61000-4-12 (6kV, 200A, 100kHz ring wave).
Warranty:
Manufacturer shall provide at time of bid, a written warranty which provides for repair or replacement of modules that fail to function as intended due to
workmanship or material defects within the first 60 months from date of delivery. Modules which exhibit luminous intensities less than the minimum as
specified in the ITE specifications as indicated above, within the first 60 months from date of delivery shall be replaced or repaired.
