What Loop Detector & Safety Photocell covers
Define the separate roles of a vehicle loop and a photoelectric beam around the barrier lane. HJ checks loop location, ground conditions, beam coverage and controller inputs, then verifies the agreed presence and protective behaviour; vehicle detection is not universal pedestrian detection.
It sits in Barrier Gate / Vehicle Access under Safety. The final deliverable is shaped by the intended outcome, the installed or proposed environment and the interfaces that must be owned, supplied, integrated and tested.
When to use this page
Lane geometry, loop/beam models and roles, pavement/cable condition, controller inputs, expected vehicle types and protective-test cases.
