National Loop Co. 28' (4' X 10') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 250' Lead-In for 14' Wide Driveways - E-NL14-18-250

Contractors laying new asphalt, concrete, or gravel can set the National Loop Co. 28' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 250' Lead-In directly on the sub-base and pave right over it. 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. Because it ships encased in heavy-duty, liquid-tight conduit, the loop lays directly on the graded sub-base and is then paved over under fresh asphalt, concrete, or gravel. The 10' side covers the travel lane with roughly 2' of clearance on each side, and the 4' side reads vehicles as they roll through, making it a fit for wide single-car or tight 2-car driveways and long rural drives.

Features:

• 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
• Wound from one continuous, non-spliced wire, leaving no splice point between the loop and lead-in to fail
• Heavy-duty, liquid-tight conduit shields the loop from sharp stones, chemicals, ground heaving, and harsh weather
• Fully assembled at the factory, so there is nothing to wind, count, or connect before paving
• Predetermined number of turns removes the guesswork of achieving optimal read range
• Saves labor cost compared with winding a loop by hand in the field
