National Loop Co. 88' (6' X 38') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 150' Lead-In for 44' Wide Driveways - X-NL44-14-150

Sized to match a specific driveway width, the National Loop Co. 88' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 150' Lead-In is a factory-wound 14 AWG loop for pave-over vehicle detection. Working through a compatible loop detector, it detects the metal mass of vehicles above, satisfying the non-contact detection that UL 325 lists as one of its two required means of entrapment protection. 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. 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:

• 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
• Predetermined number of turns removes the guesswork of achieving optimal read range
