GENERAL INFORMATION

ACG9064 is a magnetic loop detector, designed and manufactured to manage two magnetic
loops and to give one control pulse when the passage of a metal body (vehicle, motor-bike,
etc..) on the loop is detected.

REALISATION OF THE SENSITIVE ELEMENT
In order to obtain an optimal working of the system it is advisable to use the RIB loops.
ACG9067 LOOP 6 M (2 x 1 + 15 m) 88,5 µH
ACG9068 LOOP 10 M (3 x 2 + 15 m) 147 µH
Figures 2A and 2B represent examples of connection of these loops to the detector.
As alternative:
The detectors are suitable for loops made up with an insulated copper wire with a cross-section
of at least 0.5 sq. mm.
Preferably use twisted copper wires with at least 20 twists per metre to connect the detector to
the loop. Jointing in the loop wires and in the twisted cable is not recommended.
If unavoidable, jointings should be welded and sealed in an appropriate watertight junction box
to ensure best detector operation.
If the wires used for the twisted cable are especially long or in proximity to other power cables,
shielding of said wires is recommended.
Earthing of the shield should only be made at the extremity of the detector.
Excepting special cases, the detection loops should be rectangular.
Install with the longer sides placed at right angles in the direction of vehicle movement.
These sides should ideally be kept at a meter one from the other.
Loop length is a function of the width of the road surface to be monitored.
A distance of no more than 300 mm is recommended between the loop and each edge of the
road surface.
For loops running over a perimeter of more than ten metres two wire windings are normally
employed, while for loops with a lower perimeter three or more windings are required, and four
windings are required for loops with a perimeter below 6 metres.
In order to reduce possible troubles, adjacent loops should be so laid as to alternate three and
four windings.
All permanent loop components must be secured to the road surface (Fig. 1) in appropriate
grooves made using masonry cutting tools or the like.
A cross-cut at a 45° inclination must be made at the circuit angles so as to prevent the risk of
the loop cable being damaged in proximity to the apex of the right angles.
Nominal groove length: 10 ÷ 15 mm.
Nominal groove depth: 30 ÷ 50 mm.
The loop-detector connection cable must also be laid in an appropriate groove running from one
of the circuit angles along the circuit perimeter to the road surface edge.
To ensure wiring continuity between the loop and connection cable allow for a long enough lead
to reach as far as the detector before inserting the cable inside the loop groove.
After laying the required number of wire windings in the groove along the loop perimeter, route
the wire towards the road edge through the connection cable groove.
It is advisable that connection cable length not exceed 100 metres.
As loop sensitivity diminishes proportionally to connection cable length the latter should be kept
as short as possible.
