National Loop Co. 26' (4' X 9') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 250' Lead-In for 13' Wide Driveways - P-NL13-18-250

Sized to match a specific driveway width, the National Loop Co. 26' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 250' Lead-In is a factory-wound 18 AWG loop for retrofit installations. Once a loop detector reads its signal, the loop covers the non-contact vehicle detection that UL 325 requires as one of the two means of entrapment protection for automated gates. Fitting takes one shallow saw cut: a 1/8" slot, 1" deep, cleaned out, filled with the loop, and sealed with loop sealant. With the 9' 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 single-car driveways with a walkway beside them and rural homes with truck access.

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
