Overview
What it is
The SF series are ready-made induction loops for Bircher ProLoop loop detectors. Each loop is a grey PVC multi-core loop cable, pre-assembled to a twisted and shielded 2 x 0.75 mm² feeder cable.
What it is used for
The loop is laid in a groove cut into the driveway in front of a barrier, gate or bollard. The detector reads the change in inductance when a vehicle drives over it.
Key features
- Four sizes: 6, 8 and 10 m circumference with 10 m feeder, and 12 m circumference with 15 m feeder.
- Loop inductance 80 to 300 µH, the ideal range quoted for ProLoop detectors.
- Loop resistance below 8 Ω including feeder.
- Operating temperature -20 to +70 °C.
- RoHS compliant.
Buying considerations
Choose the circumference to match the lane width and the area to be monitored. Bircher states that other sizes are available on request, from 6 to 25 m circumference with feeder up to 50 m.
Installation considerations
Follow the Bircher loop installation guide: keep the loop at least 0.8 m wide, keep a length to width ratio between 1:1 and 4:1, keep at least 5 cm from reinforcement steel, and seal the groove after measuring the inductance on the detector display.
Compatibility
Specified for ProLoop induction loop detectors, including ProLoop2 and ProLoop Lite.

Questions about this product
Which loop size should I order?
Pick the circumference that fits the lane and detection area: 6, 8, 10 or 12 m. Bircher can supply other sizes from 6 to 25 m on request.
Do I need one loop per detector channel?
Yes. Each ProLoop channel monitors its own loop, so a 2-channel detector uses two loops.
