Inductive Loop Sensors

The entry system consists of RFID access panel, an auto barrier (MAG IntelliBarrier, series BR500) and two inductive loops installed inside ground. The barrier opens when a valid RFID is shown to the scanner.Loop 2 controls closing of the barrier. A vehicle exiting the loop 2 indicates it has passed the barrier and it is safe to close it now. Loop 1 is a secondary safety loop which prevents the barrier from closing in case a vehicle is present under it. The barrier does not close if a vehicle is over either loops.

Loop 1Loop 1 was pre-installed and consists of multiple turns of
