National Loop Co. 22' (4' X 7') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 175' Lead-In for 11' Wide Driveways - X-NL11-18-175

Gate installers can turn an existing driveway into part of the safety system with the National Loop Co. 22' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 175' Lead-In, a preformed 18 AWG inductive loop. Connected to a loop detector, it reports every vehicle that crosses the sensing area, giving the gate operator the non-contact detection that fills one of the two UL 325 entrapment protection slots. Installers saw a 3/16" by 1" deep slot into the existing surface, drop the prewound loop in, and seal the slot against moisture. Its 7' side spans the travel lane while the 4' side runs in the direction of traffic, leaving roughly 2' of clearance on each edge, an arrangement well suited to slightly wider suburban single-car drives and older neighborhoods with wider lot cuts.

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 length of Polypropylene-insulated wire, leaving no splice point between the loop and lead-in to fail
• Predetermined number of machine-wound turns removes the guesswork of achieving optimal read range
• Neatly stacked turns accept loop sealant completely, locking out moisture for long service life
• Optimizes read range, eliminates faulty signals, and minimizes callbacks
