Vehicle Loop Detector Circuit Schematic

A circuit used to detect a vehicle on blacktop pavement concrete and trigger an alarm or relay.

Vehicle loop detector circuit schematic.

This tiny test coil was for testing only on my work bench and although it works detection distance is not very good. The microcomputer monitors the oscillator frequency and controls the switching of the capacitors to periodically return the frequency to a predetermined value. Into the designated loop. Loop detector schematic modified to drive a relay.

The detector powers the loop causing a magnetic field in the loop area. The octal connector is available as a harness or a mountable socket. The loop resonates at a constant frequency that the detector monitors. For high bed vehicle detection the typical loop size is 6 x 8.

Set the sensitivity to the lowest setting that will detect a bicycle. Detection distance is much better with a large 6 foot coil.

A base frequency is established when there is no vehicle over the loop. We carry models from emx platinum access northstar diabo mmtc liftmaster doorking reno a7e. The number of turns in the loop is determined by the size of the loop. The time will be calculated by arduino when the vehicle interrupts the start laser the timer begins and when the vehicle interrupts the end laser the timer stops and applying the values to the equation arduino will find the speed of the vehicle.

Extension cable which in turn connects to the vehicle detector. An induction loop vehicle detector comprises an oscillator circuit having a plurality of capacitors switchable in circuit with a road loop under the control of a microcomputer to determine the oscillator frequency. This circuit can also be used in conjunction with my delay. If the inductive loop is placed correctly it will detect vehicle open gate and keep it open until the vehicle clears the gate.

Observe the detection call light on the detector module for all sensitivity settings. Executive summary of the induction loop vehicle detector.
