National Loop Co. 32' (4' X 12') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 30' Lead-In for 16' Wide Driveways - P-NL16-18-30

Made for gate and access-control upgrades, the National Loop Co. 32' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 30' Lead-In is an 18 AWG inductive loop, machine-wound and ready to seal into existing pavement. Wired to compatible automated system, the loop counts as one of the two means of entrapment protection UL 325 requires for gate operators, detecting the metal of any vehicle over the sensing area so the gate stops or reverses before contact. The install method is a 1/8" wide, 1" deep saw cut in the existing asphalt or concrete, with the loop laid in and sealed to finish the job. With the 12' side crossing the lane and about 2' of clearance per edge, and the 4' side capturing vehicles in the direction of travel, the layout fits common 2-car suburban driveways and small apartment building lots.

Features:

• More cost-effective than hand-wound loop installations
• Fills the non-contact detection role UL 325 assigns to vehicle loops in a 2-device entrapment protection system
• Designed for vehicle detection with gate operators, parking barrier gates, overhead doors, traffic signals, arming devices, and vehicle counters
• Wound from one continuous, non-spliced length of Polypropylene-insulated wire, leaving no splice point between the loop and lead-in to fail
• Predetermined number of machine-wound turns removes the guesswork of achieving optimal read range
• Neatly stacked turns accept loop sealant completely, locking out moisture for long service life
• Optimizes read range, eliminates faulty signals, and minimizes callbacks
