Mechanism

Meters 2-4 spaces with buttons assigned to each space.  Press the button for your space number and insert payment.  Base model accepts coins only, with large 1"x3" LCD rear enforcement signal, with or without blinking LEDs for night enforcement.  Mechanism fits POM housings (competitor upper housings may be machine modified using a template supplied by POM).  Low-power, only draws avg. 40-60 µA to maximize battery life.

Options:

High-visibility rotary display, visible up to 80 feet away for easier drive-by enforcement (available for APM-2X only).

Smartcard reader accepts disposable cards, reprogrammable electronic purse cards, or secure EFT smartcards.

Backlight for digital display improves visibility in low-light conditions.

Free-time may be programmed with initial press of the space button when the meter is at 00:00.  For additional time, payment must be inserted.

Housings

Base model, all-zinc housing features 4-corner locking dome that can be removed and hung on the side of the housing during on-street repairs.  Genuine Lexan® dome window is UV stabilized to prevent yellowing, features flat-face to reduce glare on digital display.  Expanded capacity vault features rear-loaded lock, tapered base, and patented Gripper wedges to discourage break-in or forced removal from the post.  Gray powder paint finish withstands ASTM B117 1000-hour salt-spray test. 

Options:

Iron Tamperproof vault has rectangular door that "falls" open when unlocked, which reduces key wear.  Door can be easily removed without tools when open, facilitating quick repair or replacement.  Expanded capacity, coin box holds $65 in US quarters.

Iron Magnum vault has similar door style as Tamperproof, but coin box holds $118 in US quarters.  Recommended for multi-space APM meters.

Iron 95 style vault has round door, integrates with existing competitor systems.  Expanded capacity, coin box holds $65 in US quarters.

Iron upper housing for maximum protection to inner mechanism from vandals.
