National Loop Co. 24' (4' X 8') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with Custom Length Lead-In for 12' Wide Driveways - K-NL12-14

The National Loop Co. 24' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with Custom Length Lead-In is a 14 AWG inductive loop that arrives preformed and ready to install, with its lead-in attached as part of the same continuous wire. 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. With the 8' side crossing the lane and about 2' of clearance per edge, and the 4' side capturing vehicles in the direction of travel, the layout fits comfortable single-car driveways, newer suburban builds, and small business side lots.

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
