01-50969B
The loop itself must be a continuous length of wire without any breaks or
splices. The loop wire can be 14, 16 or 18 gauge stranded wire with
either a cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) or polyester insulation.
Wrap the loop wire in the loop slot using a wooden stick or roller to
insert the wire to the bottom of the saw slot until the desired number of
turns are reached. (Caution: do not use a sharp object) Each turn of wire
must lay flat on top of the previous turn.
The wire must be twisted a minimum of 6 turns per foot from the end of
the feeder slot to the detector to minimize noise or interference. If a splice
is required in the feeder cable, solder each splice and protect with a
moisture proof seal.
Apply the sealant. The sealant selected should have good adhering properties
with similar contraction and expansion characteristics as the pavement
material.
