National Loop Co. 34' (5' X 12') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 30' Lead-In for 17' Wide Driveways - P-NL17-18-30

Wound from one continuous length of 18 AWG wire, the National Loop Co. 34' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 30' Lead-In installs in an existing paved surface through a simple saw-cut slot. Connected to a loop detector, it reports every vehicle that crosses the sensing area, giving the gate operator the non-contact detection that fills one of the two UL 325 entrapment protection slots. 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 12' side crossing the lane and about 2' 6" of clearance per edge, and the 5' side capturing vehicles in the direction of travel, the layout fits 2-car drives in newer subdivisions and homes with boat or trailer parking.

Features:

• 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
• 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
