National Loop Co. 60' (6' X 24') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 225' Lead-In for 30' Wide Driveways - P-NL30-18-225

Designed to sense vehicles without any surface teardown, the National Loop Co. 60' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 225' Lead-In is a preformed 18 AWG loop that drops into a saw-cut slot. 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. The install method is a 1/8" wide, 1" deep saw cut in the existing asphalt or concrete, with the loop laid in and sealed to finish the job. Its 24' side spans the travel lane while the 6' side runs in the direction of traffic, leaving roughly 3' of clearance on each edge, an arrangement well suited to double-wide commercial entrances, equipment yards, and storage facilities.

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
