Automated Drop Down Barrier

Self Closing Automated Models

 

Designed to floodproof areas where physical obstructions inhibit installation of barriers that need in-ground housing pits, the Automated Drop Down is placed above building openings. This device is particularly suited to warehouses, loading bays or other wide entrances.

 

An electric motor lowers the barrier panel into position to provide excellent flood defence to heights of up to 3 metres.

 

The Automated Drop Down is a self closing device that rises from the ground to provide instantaneous flood by capturing floodwater and sealing building openings with no human intervention whatsoever.

 

Importantly, the Automated Drop Down can be activated at the push of a button on a control panel or even remotely via mobile phone for precautionary deployment prior to flood threat, ensuring that the property is protected pre-event.  

 

This automatic deployment via pushbutton makes performance testing and maintenance inspection simple and effective.

 

Audio/visual alarms will warn of impending barrier deployment.  

 

Power is supplied by permanently charged 24 volt batteries that ensure that the device will operate in the event of a mains supply failure.  

 

The Automated Drop Down barrier is available in mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminium.
