Loop Detector Cable Installation

Loop vehicle detector the proper installation and material is critical.

Loop detector cable installation.

It consists of a number of turns of wire connected to a loop detector. The loop detector senses the change and sends a signal to the door controller to open. Vehicle detector loop installation guide an inductive loop vehicle detection installation consists of three components. A buried coil of wire loop in the roadway vehicle detector electronic module controlled device such as roller door or boom gate 1.

Inductance loops are available as direct burial or cut in. In general loop vehicle detectors from. The induction of a loop can be measured with the the help of a loop detector with an integrated measuring function e g. A vehicle passing near the wire will change the field.

In general direct burial loops are placed below the surface prior to application of asphalt or concrete while cut in loops are installed within a slot sawed into. The inductive loop the inductive loop is simply a coil of insulated copper wire. A field is created around the wire. The distance between the loop and the detector can safely be extended to 300 feet with proper extension cable however check with the vehicle detector manufacturer for confirmation.
