National Loop Co. 44' (6' X 16') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 100' Lead-In for 22' Wide Driveways - E-NL22-18-100

Made for new paving projects, the National Loop Co. 44' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 100' Lead-In is a factory-wound 18 AWG loop that installs flat on the graded sub-base. 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 pave-over design means no slot cutting: the loop goes down on the graded base and the fresh surface finishes the installation. With the 16' 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 estate homes and small HOA or church parking lot entries.

Features:

• Factory-set turn count means optimal read range without any on-site adjustment
• 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
• 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
