National Loop Co. 26' (4' X 9') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 250' Lead-In for 13' Wide Driveways - X-NL13-14-250

For driveways getting a fresh surface, the National Loop Co. 26' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 250' Lead-In provides vehicle detection without cutting into the finished pavement. 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. Because it ships encased in heavy-duty, liquid-tight conduit, the loop lays directly on the graded sub-base and is then paved over under fresh asphalt, concrete, or gravel. With the 9' side crossing the lane and about 2' of clearance per edge, and the 4' side capturing vehicles in the direction of travel, the layout fits single-car driveways with a walkway beside them and rural homes with truck access.

Features:

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