National Loop Co. 46' (6' X 17') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 175' Lead-In for 23' Wide Driveways - X-NL23-14-175

Built for sites where saw-cutting is not an option, the National Loop Co. 46' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 175' Lead-In is a preformed 14 AWG loop encased in liquid-tight conduit. Wired to compatible automated system, 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. 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 17' 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 oversized residential drives and small business/customer entrances.

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
