National Loop Co. 92' (6' X 40') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 125' Lead-In for 46' Wide Driveways - E-NL46-18-125

Preformed and pave-ready, the National Loop Co. 92' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 125' Lead-In is an 18 AWG inductive loop for direct burial under asphalt, concrete, or gravel. Once a loop detector reads its signal, the loop covers the non-contact vehicle detection that UL 325 requires as one of the two means of entrapment protection for automated gates. Crews place the loop on the prepared sub-base before paving, and the new asphalt, concrete, or gravel surface locks it in place. Its 40' 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 freight terminals, large agricultural processing plants, and wide estate boulevard gates.

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
