National Loop Co. 26' (4' X 9') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 30' Lead-In for 13' Wide Driveways - P-NL13-18-30

Made for gate and access-control upgrades, the National Loop Co. 26' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 30' Lead-In is an 18 AWG inductive loop, machine-wound and ready to seal into existing pavement. 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. Installers saw a 1/8" by 1" deep slot into the existing surface, drop the prewound loop in, and seal the slot against moisture. 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:

• Optimizes read range, eliminates faulty signals, and minimizes callbacks
• Saves labor cost compared with winding a loop by hand in the field
• 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
