The Linear 2500-1883-PROBE is the probe/lead portion of a vehicle detection setup used with compatible Linear / OSCO gate operator and access-control installations. The 150 ft lead gives installers more reach from the buried probe location back to the operator cabinet or detector connection point.
Vehicle probe systems are normally used to sense the metal mass of a vehicle in a driveway or lane. When installed and wired correctly, the system can send an open, hold-open, or presence signal to the gate controller. It is a useful accessory for automatic gate convenience, but it does not replace required UL 325 monitored entrapment protection.
Because buried probes are application-sensitive, the replacement should be matched to the original probe detector part number, lead length, supply voltage, and controller wiring. A 150 ft lead version should not be confused with the shorter 50 ft versions or with different 24 VDC probe detector families.
This item is commonly associated with the following Linear / OSCO parts, operators, or applications. Confirm the original part number, operator model, voltage, and parts diagram before ordering.

Probe detectors are for vehicle detection, not pedestrian protection or entrapment protection. If the gate is missing monitored photo eyes or safety edges, correct the safety system before relying on vehicle detection accessories.
Buried probe installation and troubleshooting should be performed by a qualified gate technician when conduit, pavement cuts, buried wiring, or operator cabinet wiring are involved.
No. This is a vehicle detection probe and should not be used as a monitored reversing safety device.
This item is associated with the 150 ft lead version of the Linear 2500-1883 probe detector family.
It may be used for free-exit or presence detection when wired to a compatible gate operator input and installed correctly.
No. 2500-1928 is commonly listed as a 24 VAC probe detector with a 50 ft lead, so the lead length/application should be checked.
Verify the original part number, lead length, voltage, and whether you need the probe/lead only or a complete detector setup.
