Reno A&E PLH

Reno A&E EverLoop PLH loops are prefabricated loop and lead-in assemblies for new hot asphalt overlay or poured concrete. The loop, lead-in and splice arrive joined and tested.

Sizes run from 3 x 5 ft to 6 x 44 ft. Loops 4 ft wide and under have 40 ft leads, and 6 ft wide loops have 50 ft leads. Detection height is about 2/3 of the shortest loop side.

Identify your model

The model number gives the loop perimeter and lead length. PLH-30-50 is a 30 ft perimeter loop (6 x 9 ft) with a 50 ft lead. The 417 support tee holds the loop above rebar in a pour. PLH and PLH-R are different products. For direct burial in gravel or dirt, see the PLH-R rugged loops.

Troubleshooting

Loop fault on the detector

  • Check loop resistance and megger the loop to ground before you pour or pave.
  • Check that no lead-in was cut or crushed during the pour.

Poor detection

  • Check that the loop is the right size for the lane.
  • Check that the lead-in is not run next to power wires.

Common questions

No. PLH loops are for new asphalt overlay or new concrete. Use a saw-cut loop in existing pavement.

Use the support tee on 3/8 in rebar every 1 to 2 ft, with the loop at least 2 in above the rebar.

The first number is the loop perimeter in feet and the second is the lead length.

Match the loop to the lane width. A 6 ft wide loop detects up to about 4 ft high.
