For the absolute maximum protection against unauthorized vehicle access,
B&B ARMR’s Model 820 Shallow-Mount Vehicle Barricades are expertly
engineered to completely immobilize a substantial, high-speed vehicle.
Model 820 exceeds Department of State specifications STD 02.01 with a
K12/L3 rating and is capable of stopping a 15,000 lb. (6803.9 kg)
vehicle going at speeds up to 50 mph (80.5 km/h) with zero penetration.
Designed for facilities and environments requiring the highest level of
perimeter protection, Model 820 is ideally suited for government and
military establishments, embassies and other critical infrastructures
vital to our national security, economy, public health and safety.
B&B ARMR’s Shallow-Mount Barriers are constructed of heavy-gauge steel
shapes and weldments designed to transmit the energy of the impacting
vehicle to the foundation. Once constructed, the frame and top plate are
finished with a superior rust inhibitor and anti-wear paint allowing for
superior corrosion protection. The barrier is operated by either a
hydraulic or pneumatic pumping unit built to operate one or more
barriers and uses a standard or custom controller to meet the users’
requirements.
Installation of the crash barrier is simple with its shallow-mount
design so there is no need for any major excavation work on existing
roads or paved surfaces. Model 820 comes complete with all necessary
accesses for drains, hydraulic conduits and electrical services to
further ease the installation process.
In the active (up) position, the barrier stands 36 inches high and
lowers flush to the ground to allow authorized vehicles to pass. The
barrier plate is 9 feet (2.7 m) wide and is available in custom sizes up
to 14 feet (4.3 m) to fit challenging installations such as parking
garages and ramps, narrow thoroughfares or raised surfaces.
The barrier is provided with safety locks that may be used during
servicing to secure the unit for long periods of time. Additional safety
devices can be used to enhance the barrier performance including
face-mounted red LED lights, safety loops, traffic arms and traffic
lights.
