Double vertical pivot barrier
Semi-automatic double vertical pivot containment barrier - TYPE T AB BVD MR
The semi-automatic double vertical pivot containment barrier is designed to capture and retain contaminated firewater and chemical spillages at doorways and gate openings. It closes automatically on receipt of a signal or by pressing a control button (emergency button). Opening the barrier afterwards is done manually.
How the semi-automatic double vertical pivot barrier works
At rest, the two semi-automatic vertical pivot containment barrier sections are positioned vertically on either side of the doorway and held upright by electromagnets.
Upon switching on the fire alarm control unit, liquid sensor (optional), power failure or by simply manually pressing the control button (emergency button), both barriers close slowly. When the barriers are in horizontal position, a tensioner at the bottom automatically locks the barriers and presses them liquid-tight.
Unlocking the tensioners and returning the barriers to the vertical rest position is done manually.
