Description

XLP-8 Detetor with a 100' Lead Mini Loop.

The XLP-8 is specifically designed as a small, simple to use, extremely low current draw, vehicle detector capable of using an inductive loop or a magnetometer sensor (a.k.a. Mini-Loop or Probe).  The extremely low power use, less than 1 milliamp, makes this detector ideal for solar and battery backed-up applications.

The XLP-8 can be connected to a standard inductive loop or one of Diablo Controls magnetometer based probes. The Diablo Controls probe is a small “pipe shaped” device approximately 4-1/2” by 1” and is designed to be buried in the ground to detect vehicles.  If the probe function is turned on, the detector cannot be used as an obstruction or safety detector as there is no presence detection in this mode of operation.

The XLP-8 has 1 amp rated relay contact outputs.  Both Normally-Open and Normally-Closed contacts are provided.

The XLP-8 has 9 selectable sensitivity settings and uses a 4-position DIP switch to configure the detector. This includes the magnetometer probe selection as well as sensitivity boost, fail-safe or fail-secure operation, and operating frequency.  This makes the XLP-8 flexible enough to deal with most installations.

  • Results in the opportunity for greatly increased service life due to the reduced exposure to hazards such as road traffic, pavement movement, pavement deterioration, and roadwork.
  • The fact that the “Mini-Loop” is not installed in the pavement and that the lead-in is very durable allows the “Mini-Loop” to be used in situations such as cobblestone pavements, poor pavements, dirt/gravel roads, and bridge decks.
  • Minimal intrusion into good pavements!

The Diablo “Mini-Loop” is intended to be buried beneath the roadway surface and connected, via lead-in cable, to the Diablo XLP-8 Detector.

Installation is straightforward. A 1-in. diameter hole (18-in to 24-in. deep) is drilled for the “Mini Loop”. A shallow, 1/4-in. saw cut from the hole to the edge of the road provides a path for the lead-in wire. The “Mini-Loop” with lead-in is inserted into the hole and the hole is filled with dry sand. Detector loop sealant material is then used to fill the slot and top portion of the hole.

It is important that the “Mini-Loop” be installed in a vertical position and that the vertical position of the “Mini-Loop” be maintained. Under some soil conditions, installation can be further simplified by installing the Mini-Loop inside a length of PVC pipe (not steel pipe) with an interior diameter of about 1 inch. In this case, the hole must be slightly larger than the outside diameter of the PVC pipe, typically 1-5/8-in. or less. After insertion of the PVC pipe and Mini-Loop, all cavities are back-filled with fine, dry sand and the installation completed in the normal manner.
