National Loop Co. 88' (6' X 38') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 125' Lead-In for 44' Wide Driveways - X-NL44-14-125

Contractors laying new asphalt, concrete, or gravel can set the National Loop Co. 88' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 125' Lead-In directly on the sub-base and pave right over it. Once a loop detector reads its signal, the loop covers the non-contact vehicle detection that UL 325 requires as one of the two means of entrapment protection for automated gates. 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. Its 38' side spans the travel lane while the 6' side runs in the direction of traffic, leaving roughly 3' of clearance on each edge, an arrangement well suited to logistics/warehouse entrances, large farm commodity yards, and wide municipal entries.

Features:

• 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
• 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
