National Loop Co. 42' (6' X 15') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 75' Lead-In for 21' Wide Driveways - P-NL21-18-75

Retrofit projects move faster with the National Loop Co. 42' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 75' Lead-In, a preformed 18 AWG loop that eliminates on-site wire winding. 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. 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 15' side crossing the lane and about 3' of clearance per edge, and the 6' side capturing vehicles in the direction of travel, the layout fits 2-car plus guest parking and wider rural/farm gate entrances.

Features:

• 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
• 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
