National Loop Co. 88' (6' X 38') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 50' Lead-In for 44' Wide Driveways - K-NL44-14-50

For driveways getting a fresh surface, the National Loop Co. 88' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 50' Lead-In provides vehicle detection without cutting into the finished pavement. Wired to a compatible loop detector, 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. Since the conduit protects the wire, the loop sits directly on the sub-base and gets buried under the new asphalt, concrete, or gravel surface. Across the 38' side it watches the full lane width, and down the 6' side it follows each vehicle's path, leaving about 3' of clearance at each edge for logistics/warehouse entrances, large farm commodity yards, and wide municipal entries.

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
