National Loop Co. 88' (6' X 38') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 150' Lead-In for 44' Wide Driveways - P-NL44-18-150

Gate installers can turn an existing driveway into part of the safety system with the National Loop Co. 88' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 150' Lead-In, a preformed 18 AWG inductive loop. 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. Setup is a 3-step process: saw a 1/8" slot 1" deep in the pavement, press the loop in, and seal over it. Its 38' 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 logistics/warehouse entrances, large farm commodity yards, and wide municipal entries.

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
