National Loop Co. 48' (6' X 18') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 30' Lead-In for 24' Wide Driveways - E-NL24-18-30

The National Loop Co. 48' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 30' Lead-In is an 18 AWG inductive loop that arrives preformed and ready to install, with its lead-in attached as part of the same continuous wire. Teamed with a loop detector, it gives the gate operator the presence detection UL 325 counts as one of its two means of entrapment protection, so the gate reverses or holds open while a vehicle sits in the path. The pave-over design means no slot cutting: the loop goes down on the graded base and the fresh surface finishes the installation. The 18' side covers the travel lane with roughly 3' of clearance on each side, and the 6' side reads vehicles as they roll through, making it a fit for 2-car plus full walkway and church or small office lot entries.

Features:

• 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
• Provides the non-contact vehicle detection UL 325 gate systems count toward their two required means of entrapment protection
