National Loop Co. 92' (6' X 40') Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 20' Lead-In for 46' Wide Driveways - X-NL46-18-20

Because it arrives prewound and precut, the National Loop Co. 92' Saw Cut Vehicle Detection Loop with 20' Lead-In takes the guesswork out of adding vehicle detection to an existing driveway. 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. Installation calls for sawing a 3/16" slot 1" deep into existing asphalt or concrete, laying the loop in the slot, and sealing it, with no hand-winding or turn counting required. Its 40' 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 freight terminals, large agricultural processing plants, and wide estate boulevard gates.

Features:

• One continuous, non-spliced Polypropylene-insulated wire runs through the loop turns and lead-in, eliminating splice failures
• Factory-set turn count means optimal read range without any on-site adjustment
• Precisely stacked wires let loop sealant fully encapsulate the loop for lasting weather protection
• Cuts down on faulty detection calls and repeat service trips thanks to consistent machine winding
• 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
