National Loop Co. 22' (4' X 7') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 200' Lead-In for 11' Wide Driveways - X-NL11-18-200

Built for retrofitting an existing paved driveway, the National Loop Co. 22' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 200' Lead-In is a factory-wound 18 AWG inductive loop ready to lay into a saw-cut slot. 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. Setup is a 3-step process: saw a 3/16" slot 1" deep in the pavement, press the loop in, and seal over it. 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:

• 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
• 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
