The SB970CR High Security Bollards have been independently physically tested in a number of full scale crash tests conducted in accordance with PAS 68 by the Transport Research Laboratory (TRL) both as a single unit and dual arrangement - two bollards installed at a distance of 1.5m between bollard centres.
SB970CR automatic PAS68 bollards are an Electro-Hydraulically operated security bollard system with a 1000mm height when fully raised. PAS68 security bollards comprise of a static sub-surface mounting tube and impact tube. Raised/Lowered back indication signalling can be provided to enable remote monitoring of the bollard status on a real time basis (optional).
The hydraulic power pack is controlled by a programmable logic controller (PLC) enabling connection of virtually any access control to the bollards. In addition, the HPU can provide outputs for a number of automatic security bollards for simultaneous operation. In the event of power failure a manual pump is provided to ensure operator control is maintained.
Each automatic bollard system comes with a push-button control as standard, however it can be customised to interface with a wide range of access control equipment to suit specific customer requirements (available as options) and any configuration including (but not limited to) inductive loop systems card readers, communication equipment and manned guard emergency systems can be accommodated. For safety reasons pedestrians, cyclists and motorcycles are advised not to use a bollard controlled roadway, additional safety measures can be incorporated into the bollard system if required.
Where the high security bollards control point is remote from the installation, we strongly recommend the fitting of a recordable CCTV system, traffic lights and safety inductive loop systems.
