National Loop Co. 22' (4' X 7') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 225' Lead-In for 11' Wide Driveways - P-NL11-18-225

Wound from one continuous length of 18 AWG wire, the National Loop Co. 22' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 225' Lead-In installs in an existing paved surface through a simple saw-cut slot. Working through a compatible loop detector, it detects the metal mass of vehicles above, satisfying the non-contact detection that UL 325 lists as one of its two required means of entrapment protection. Installation calls for sawing a 1/8" slot 1" deep into existing asphalt or concrete, laying the loop in the slot, and sealing it, with no hand-winding or turn counting required. With the 7' 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 slightly wider suburban single-car drives and older neighborhoods with wider lot cuts.

Features:

• Provides the non-contact vehicle detection UL 325 gate systems count toward their two required means of entrapment protection
• Works wherever vehicles need detecting: automatic gates, parking barriers, overhead doors, traffic signals, arming devices, and vehicle counters
• One continuous, non-spliced Polypropylene-insulated wire runs through the loop turns and lead-in, eliminating splice failures
• Factory-set turn count means optimal read range without any on-site adjustment
• Precisely stacked wires let loop sealant fully encapsulate the loop for lasting weather protection
• Cuts down on faulty detection calls and repeat service trips thanks to consistent machine winding
• More cost-effective than hand-wound loop installations
