National Loop Co. 20' (4' X 6') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with Custom Length Lead-In for 10' Wide Driveways - K-NL10-14

Preformed and pave-ready, the National Loop Co. 20' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with Custom Length Lead-In is a 14 AWG inductive loop for direct burial under asphalt, concrete, or gravel. 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 6' side covers the travel lane with roughly 2' of clearance on each side, and the 4' side reads vehicles as they roll through, making it a fit for standard single-car suburban homes, duplex driveways, and small farm entrances.

Features:

• 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
• 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
