How the semi-automatic vertical pivot barrier works

Previous Next

At rest, this semi-automatic vertical pivot containment barrier is positioned vertically next to the doorway and held upright by an electromagnet.

Upon activation of the fire alarm control unit, liquid sensor (optional), power failure or by simply manually pressing the control button (emergency button), the barrier closes slowly. When the barrier is in horizontal position, a tensioner at the bottom automatically locks the barrier and presses it liquid-tight.

Unlocking the tensioner and returning the containment barrier to its vertical resting position is done manually.
