The Loop Detector is primarily used to detect vehicles such as cars, trucks, buses and others.
A loop in the ground is required for the Loop Detector to detect any vehicles above the loop. The device
works on the same principle of an inductive sensor; utilizing the phenomenon of eddy current. When a
metal target/vehicle approaches on top of the loop, the magnetic field generated by the loop interacts with
the target and makes the Loop Detector to change its output.
The Loop Detector can be used at carpark barriers, bollards, gates, toll gantries and many other door
access applications.
