National Loop Co. 44' (6' X 16') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 30' Lead-In for 22' Wide Driveways - P-NL22-18-30

The National Loop Co. 44' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 30' Lead-In is a preformed 18 AWG inductive vehicle detection loop that arrives ready to drop into a saw-cut slot. Wired to a compatible loop detector, 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. 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. Across the 16' side it watches the full lane width, and down the 6' side it follows each vehicle's path, leaving about 3' of clearance at each edge for estate homes and small HOA or church parking lot entries.

Features:

• 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
• One continuous, non-spliced XLP-insulated wire runs through the loop turns and lead-in, eliminating splice failures
