“We have a great need for easy to install, temporary, drop-arm beam barriers to block entrances to embassies or roads to embassies where we don’t have setbacks,” emphasizes Dusty Rhodes, part of the certification team from the U.S. State Department. “With this type of barrier, we don’t need to dig up streets.”

According to Jerry Edwards, U.S. Army R & D Deputy Product Manager, Physical Security Equipment “This type of barrier provides a new element in force protection both in the U.S. and overseas. It’s especially relevant for threat conditions in the military, such as in Kosovo, where there are a series of force protection issues. Having an increased level of security, when moving from locale to locale, is a big advantage.”

The DSC900 provides security against vehicle-based terrorism or thefts for high-cycle locations such as the entrances to large office facilities, government agencies and military bases.

Able to be deployed in high traffic locations for full manual or automatic operation within two hours, With the quick deployment modular Series DSC 900 Barricade features a phalanx-type rising plate barrier mounted within multiple inertial pods.

The plate barrier lies level to the ground to allow vehicles to pass and is raised or lowered into position utilizing a hydraulic cylinder driven by a Hydraulic Power Unit or manually operated. The weight of the Plate Barrier is balanced by a Hydraulic-pneumatic balance system (U.S. Patent # 5,560,733 dated 10/1/96). The Hydraulic Pumping Unit can be sized to provide pass-through rates suitable for most inspection and identification station requirements.

The unfilled pods weigh less than 700 pounds (318 kg) and consist of a permanent steel housing back-filled with concrete either in situ or remotely. Each Pod has fork-lift slots for moving and positioning. Pods can be moved using a small forklift, pallet jack, crane or handcart. They can be set on paved roads and driveways, undisturbed soil or any combination. No excavation or foundation is required. The portable system can be operated using any hydraulic, pneumatic or manual system including fully automatic access or remote control by hardwire or RF links.

Stops and disables a 15,000 pound G.V.W. (66.7 kN) vehicle moving at 30 mph (48 kph). K4/L1.0

The MP5000 was built for U.S. Federal government security specialists wanting a system that could be rapidly deployed and then operated as a regular security gate or barrier system.

Once positioned, the new mobile barricade is separated from its transporter and lowered into position by means of a Battery-Operated Hydraulic Power System, which is then used to raise or lower the barrier for normal or emergency tasks. The controls to run the barrier can be located on the barrier, at a fixed secure post, or from a hand-held push button controller. The guard need not go to the barrier to raise or lower it from its guard position.

Within 15 minutes of being sited, the new mobile crash barrier lowers itself into position with built-in hydraulic jacks. There is no hand cranking. Wheels are stored at the sides and then the vehicle ramps are folded out, completing the deployment. To move the barrier, the procedures are simply reversed.

Both the operation of the barrier as well as deployment and retrieval are push-button controlled. A standard system includes a battery-operated power unit, replenished from either a solar array or multiple local low voltage sources. Optionally, a Hydraulic Power Unit operated on a locally supplied power or full manual system, or combination, is available. Both the locally powered and battery powered hydraulic pumping unit can be sized to provide pass-through rates suitable for most inspection and identification station requirements.

The barricade operates at rates between 10 and 15 seconds for a full up-down cycle. Sustained rates of 40 cycles per hour can be maintained indefinitely, depending on the available recharging methods employed.

The DSC1100 provides security against vehicle-based terrorism or thefts for high-cycle locations such as the entrances to large office facilities, government agencies and military bases.

Beam barricades are available in hydraulic and manually operated models. All are crash rated with one version enhanced for applications at nuclear power plants.

The clear openings range from 10.5 to 20 feet (3200 mm to 7315 mm).

Models DSC7500 and TT218 are configured as swing gates for use where vertical lift is impractical. All other models are raised to allow passage of authorized vehicles.

DSC7000
The DSC7000 beam barricade is used worldwide at locations where wide roadways need to be secured from attacking vehicles. It provides protection between 12- to 20-foot wide with options to 30 feet (3.7 to 9.2 m). The 725-pound beam of the vertical lift barricade stops a 15,000-pound (66.7 kN) vehicle traveling 50 mph (80 kph) dead in its tracks, equivalent to 1.2-million foot-pounds of kinetic energy. It meets the K12 crash certification standard set by the United States Department of State.

The DSC7000(H) version operates remotely by means of an integral Hydraulic Pumping Unit (HPU) that is wholly enclosed in the hinge end enclosure. The HPU can be powered from a local single or three-phase power source.

Alternatively, the DSC7000(H) can be powered and operated automatically from a Battery Powered HPU, which can be maintained at operating power level by a solar array or by low power alternative sources.

The Manual version of the Model DSC7000 Drop Arm Beam Barrier System can be converted to fully automatic operation by the addition of a hydraulic power unit and appropriate control options.

DSC7500
The DSC7500 swing beam barricade is designed to close off one or two lanes of a roadway and provide counter terrorist level protection against vehicle attack. The barricade stops a 15,000-pound (66.7 kN) vehicle traveling 50 mph (80 kph) with zero penetration, equivalent to 1.2-million foot-pounds of kinetic energy. It meets the K12 crash certification standard set by the United States Department of State.

The DSC 7500 is supplied as an easy to use manual gate or powered with full automation features. Other versions of the DSC 7500 Series include a full swing gate with anti-climb features that can replace existing non-rated swing gates.

A cantilevered sliding gate with the DSC 7000 series crash beam is also available with the full crash rating.

The TT212 Beam Barricade is used at government facilities, embassies and automotive sales facilities. When CarMax, the Auto Superstore® and the nation’s leading specialty retailer of used cars, needed a low maintenance system that would deter theft from their lots and integrate with their present security system, they chose Scientific’s beam barricades. The high-strength wire rope of the TT212 will stop a non-armored or non-tracked vehicle weighing 6,000 pounds at 40 mph (26,7 KN at 64 kph).

Beams are raised to allow passage of authorized vehicles. Clear opening ranges from 10.5 to 24 feet (3,200 mm to 7,315 mm) are available to allow passage of almost every type of vehicle.
