National Loop Co. 88' (6' X 38') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 100' Lead-In for 44' Wide Driveways - K-NL44-14-100

The National Loop Co. 88' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 100' Lead-In is a 14 AWG inductive loop that arrives preformed and ready to install, with its lead-in attached as part of the same continuous wire. Paired with a compatible loop detector, it senses the metal mass of a passing car or truck and signals the gate operator to open, hold, or reverse, providing one of the two means of entrapment protection UL 325 requires for automated gates. Installation is a lay-and-pave job: set the loop on the graded sub-base, run the lead-in to the detector, and let the paving crew cover it. The 38' 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 logistics/warehouse entrances, large farm commodity yards, and wide municipal entries.

Features:

• 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
• Works wherever vehicles need detecting: automatic gates, parking barriers, overhead doors, traffic signals, arming devices, and vehicle counters
• One continuous, non-spliced wire runs through the loop turns and lead-in, eliminating splice failures
• Liquid-tight conduit stands between the wire and sharp stones, chemicals, ground movement, and harsh weather
• Arrives fully assembled and ready to install under new asphalt, concrete, or gravel
