DESCRIPTION

Crisp's Horizontal Beam Barrier™ (HBB) is an attractive, visible electronically operated steel beam barrier for controlling or barring vehicular traffic. The beam is lowered to surface level to permit traffic flow or raised and secured at 34 inches to stop traffic. The HBB can be operated remotely from a central security monitoring station with optional CCTV or can be controlled from a manned check point. For unmanned control, options include any standard access control system. A hand crank is offered as an option to allow the barrier gate to be raised manually in the event of a prolonged power interruption or for manually operated units. At locations where the ability to deny access is important, the HBB provides security features not available in other barriers. The HBB was designed to stop a 15,000 lb. vehicle traveling at 50 mph, and has an operating mechanism designed to prevent heavy damage to the system when impacted. A crash rating certification will be provided.

FEATURES

• Minimal installation expense
• Minimal site excavation required
• Durability - the HBB is capable of supporting a vehicular load of 50,000 lbs. per axle weight without deformation or damage to the unit
• All components are industrial, heavy-duty, and the electrical components are of heavy-duty materials
• Low maintenance - the unit is designed for long-lasting wear with minimal repair and parts replacement
• Accessibility of system components - simplified con-figuration permits easy field maintenance, repair or modification if necessary.
• Detailed installation structural, and electrical drawings specific to each customer product

APPLICATIONS

The HBB is ideal for facilities with maximum counter intrusion concerns but the need to control occasional or frequent vehicular traffic. The HBB has an unique self-contained all electric system. The result is a roadway barrier suitable for use in environmentally sensitive areas. The HBB is applicable to in-town areas, embassies, military bases, airports, and industrial complexes.

INSTALLATION

The HBB is delivered assembled and ready for installation. It can be quickly and easily installed at sites where below-ground models would be expensive or impossible to install. Because only minimal site excavation is required for installation, high water table, bedrock, or underground cables and pipes generally are not a problem. Because the device is self-contained, except for external power source, it can be mounted with any road surface and does not require the site preparation and construction required for installing other roadway barriers.
