Loop detectors are available as direct plug in for specific gate operator control boards or use a universal 11 pin octal connector.
Loop detector for gate barrier.
Vehicle detection loops can detect vehicles passing or arriving at a certain point for instance approaching a traffic light or in motorway traffic they detect the presence of a vehicle through electrical conductivity and then using this input to signal the barrier door or gate to operate.
This vehicle induction loop presence detector works in conjunction with all our gate systems.
Inductance loops are available as direct burial or cut in.
Easy to install plug in detectors dks gate operators only and hard wired detectors available.
We carry models from emx platinum access northstar diabo mmtc liftmaster doorking reno a7e.
Vehicle loops and loop detectors are used to detect the presence of a vehicle to open a gate or as a safety device to prevent the gate from closing on a vehicle in its path.
Single and dual channel circuit boards available.
The coil is a cable loop embedded in the roadway whose inductance is altered when crossed over by a vehicle.

Basics of vehicle detection loops.
The larger the loop the greater the spacing must be between the loop and the gate.
Essentially loops should be placed a minimum of 4 from the gate.
Key specifications special features.
The octal connector is available as a harness or a mountable socket.
Vehicle detection loops or inductive loop traffic detectors can detect vehicles.
The size of the loop also determines the loop placement.
For safety loops the loops should be more that 3 feet from the gate in both the fully open and the fully closed positions.
When connecting more than one loop to a detector always connect the loops in series.
Vehicles exiting the property should trigger the loop with sufficient distance to allow the gate to open.
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.
Loops are used to stop or reverse a moving gate to allow free exit from or entrance to a site or as an arming loop to allow entrance.
