National Loop Co. 16' (2' X 6') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 75' Lead-In for 8' Wide Driveways - X-NL08-14-75

Built for sites where saw-cutting is not an option, the National Loop Co. 16' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 75' Lead-In is a preformed 14 AWG loop encased in liquid-tight conduit. Connected to a loop detector, it reports every vehicle that crosses the sensing area, giving the gate operator the non-contact detection that fills one of the two UL 325 entrapment protection slots. 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. With the 6' side crossing the lane and about 1' of clearance per edge, and the 2' side capturing vehicles in the direction of travel, the layout fits older urban row homes, narrow driveways, and single-car gravel drives in rural areas.

Features:

• 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
• Factory-set turn count means optimal read range without any on-site adjustment
• More cost-effective than hand-wound loop installations
