National Loop Co. 46' (6' X 17') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 75' Lead-In for 23' Wide Driveways - X-NL23-14-75

Built for sites where saw-cutting is not an option, the National Loop Co. 46' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 75' Lead-In is a preformed 14 AWG loop encased in liquid-tight conduit. 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. 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. 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:

• 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
• 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
