Features:
The Detector cable is made from insulated silverd copper wire with a minimum cross-sectional area of 1.5mm2.

Whats in the box:
30 Meters of cable

Loop Installation Guide:
1.The detector should be installed in a waterproof housing as close to the loop as possible.
2.The loop and feeder should be made from insulated copper wire with a minimum cross-sectional area of 1.5mm2. The feeder should be twisted with at least 20 turns per metre. This can be done by placing the 2 cable ends in a cordless drill and slowly turning the two cables together. Joints in the wire are not recommended and must be soldered and made waterproof. Faulty joints could lead to incorrect operation of the detector. Feeders which may pick up electrical noise should use screened cable, with the screen earthed at the detector.
3.The loop should be either square or rectangular in shape with a minimum distance of 1 metre between opposite sides. Normally 3 turns of wire are used in the loop. Large loops with a circumference of greater than 10 metres should use 2 turns while small loops with a circumference of less than 6 metres should use 4 turns. When two loops are used in close proximity to each other it is recommended that 3 turns are used in one and 4 turns in the other to prevent cross-talk.
4.Cross-talk is a term used to describe the interference between two adjacent loops. To avoid incorrect operation of the detector, the loops should be at least 2 metres apart and on different frequency settings.
5.For loop installation, slots should be cut in the road using a masonry cutting tool. Typically a grinder with a 2-3 masonary blades can be used to cut the chase required. tA 45o cut should be made across the corners to prevent damage to the wire on the corners. The slot should be about 4mm wide and 30mm to 50mm deep. Remember to extend the slot from one of the corners to the road-side to accommodate the feeder.
6.Best results are obtained when a single length of wire is used with no joints. This may be achieved by running the wire from the detector to the loop, around the loop for 3 turns and then back to the detector. The feeder portion of the wire is then twisted. Remember that twisting the feeder will shorten its length, so ensure a long enough feeder wire is used.
7.After the loop and feeder wires have been placed in the slot, the slot is filled with epoxy or a flexibe mortar compound or bitumen filler.

Detector Cable

For the Loop Detector to operate a cable needs to be laid in the drive. This is easily done and provides a superior result when compared to wand style detectors that are prone to false Detection and Double triggering. Approximately 30 meters of cable is required per loop.
