Confirm whether the ground-loop cable and installation work are included before ordering.<\/p>\n<h2>What Is an Inductive Loop Detector?<\/h2>\n<p>An inductive loop detector identifies a vehicle by monitoring changes in the magnetic field around a cable loop installed in the road surface. The FLUX unit sends an output to a compatible gate motor, traffic barrier or access-control system when a vehicle is present.<\/p>\n<h2>Vehicle Detection for Automatic Gates<\/h2>\n<p>The detector can trigger a sliding or swing gate for free exit when a vehicle drives over the installed loop. It can also provide vehicle-presence information to a managed entrance or parking system.<\/p>\n<h2>Traffic Barrier Safety and Free Exit<\/h2>\n<p>At a traffic barrier, an inductive loop can help prevent the boom from closing while a vehicle remains in the detection area. A separate free-exit loop can command the barrier to open for vehicles leaving the property.<\/p>\n<h2>FLUX Detector Module vs Ground Loop Cable<\/h2>\n<p>The detector module and the road loop are separate parts of the system. The module processes the signal, while insulated loop cable installed in the pavement creates the sensing area. Lead-in cable, conduit, sealant and installation work may also be required.<\/p>\n<h2>Where the Vehicle Loop Is Installed<\/h2>\n<p>The loop cable is normally installed in a correctly sized groove cut into the road surface near the gate or barrier. Its position depends on whether the loop is being used for safety, vehicle presence or free exit.<\/p>\n<h2>Centurion FLUX Compatibility<\/h2>\n<p>The FLUX detector can be used with compatible Centurion gate motors, traffic barriers and access-control inputs. Confirm the controller input, power requirements and desired operating mode before installation.<\/p>\n<h2>How an Inductive Loop Sensor Detects Vehicles<\/h2>\n<p>A vehicle\u2019s metal mass changes the electrical characteristics of the buried loop. The detector recognises this change and switches its output. Detection depends on the loop layout, sensitivity setting, vehicle position, cable condition and nearby metal structures.<\/p>\n<h2>Loop Detector Installation and Testing<\/h2>\n<p>Installation should be completed by an access-control technician. The loop must be cut, wired, sealed and connected correctly, then tested with the types of vehicles that use the entrance. Safety functions should be checked before normal operation.<\/p>\n<h2>Common Causes of Loop Detection Problems<\/h2>\n<p>Unreliable detection can result from a damaged loop cable, moisture in joints, incorrect sensitivity, loose connections, electrical interference or an unsuitable loop layout. Test the loop and wiring before replacing the detector module.<\/p>\n<h2>Where to Buy a Vehicle Loop Detector in Nairobi<\/h2>\n<p>Buy the Centurion FLUX inductive loop detector from Patsec Security Store at Accra Road, White Angle House, first floor, shop 76, Nairobi. Contact the store with the gate or barrier model and required use so the correct installation parts can be confirmed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Centurion FLUX inductive loop detector for vehicle detection at automatic gates and traffic barriers.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Current price: KSh 12,000<\/li>\n<li>Supports free-exit and vehicle-presence functions<\/li>\n<li>Can support barrier safety operation<\/li>\n<li>Requires a correctly installed ground loop<\/li>\n<li>Professional installation recommended<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1385,"template":"","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"rank_math_title":"","rank_math_description":"","rank_math_canonical_url":"","rank_math_focus_keyword":"Centurion Flux Inductive Loop Detectors"},"product_brand":[228],"product_cat":[75],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-1383","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_brand-centurion-gates","7":"product_cat-automatic-gates","9":"first","10":"instock","11":"sale","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/patsecuritysolutions.co.ke\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/1383","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/patsecuritysolutions.co.ke\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/patsecuritysolutions.co.ke\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/patsecuritysolutions.co.ke\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1385"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/patsecuritysolutions.co.ke\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1383"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/patsecuritysolutions.co.ke\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=1383"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/patsecuritysolutions.co.ke\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=1383"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/patsecuritysolutions.co.ke\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=1383"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
