    • Finish: Shotblasted, hot zinc sprayed (galvanised), primed and finished with a final coat of polyurethane paint.
    • Method of Operation: Push button as standard for automatic gates, consist of (Open/Stop/Close) buttons.
    • Operational Options: Manual or Automatic
    • Safety Options
      • Photocells
      • Vehicle Detector Loops
      • Safety Edge
      • LED Red/Green Traffic lights
      • Flashing Beacon
      • Audible Alarm
    • Normal Operating Speed/Time: 200mm per second Depending on configuration and subject to risk assessment to ensure the gate would comply with BS EN 12453 (Safety Standards)
    • Duty Cycle: 100% duty rating
    • Controls: The programmable logic controller (PLC) with built in safety features will accept inputs from access control systems including access card, voice, etc. Push button as supplied as standard
    • Successfully Crash tested in the UK to PAS68 specification.
    • Terra V-Gate has been designed for wider entrances covering 6m width of counter Terrorism protection.
    • Heavy duty posts support the gate leaf during operation and crash test and absorb the impact energy and divert it into the ground.
    • No track or support required across the road width, minimal excavation.
    • Designed for easy of installation and maintenance
    • Can be interfaced to any access control systems.
    • Hydraulically driven by Underground Trojan actuators
    • Manual disengaging leaver arm for emergency use
    • Advance drive mechanism with acceleration and deceleration velocity to preserve the driving mechanism.
    • Unique locking mechanism to prevent the gate being open with force.
    • Operating temperature of -20 to + 60C
    • Operating Voltage: Three phase 415V AC at 50Hz
    • Accreditations: TRL, Secured by Design, BRE Global
    • Infill options
      • Bar infill
      • Weldmesh infill 358mm
      • Sheet infill (Solid)
      • Square mesh infill 50x50mm
      • Special infill (contact us for further details)

    • Signage: Warning and information signs installed on the barrier boom such as ‘STOP’ ‘NO EXIT’ and ‘NO ENTRY’
    • Traffic Lights: Traffic Light systems are highly recommended to be installed with all automatic systems to advise all users of its position. 100mm or 200mm LED Red/Green, Low Voltage traffic light heads can be pole or mounted on control cabinet mounted.
    • Vehicle Detector Loops: Vehicle detector loops installed beneath the road surface to detect vehicles. This will prevent the gate from closing on a vehicle within the aperture.
    • Safety Photocells: Safety Photocells produce beams of light which cross the road way to monitor vehicle and pedestrian movement. If an object breaks this beam, the automatic equipment will stop. On gate installations, two pairs of photocells are usually fitted. Ultra Sonic Sensors are also available.
    • Gate Safety Edge: Safety Edges are normally fitted to automatic gates. Safety edges are flexible rubber strips which are fitted to the leading edge of the moving art of the gate, if depressed, send a signal to the controller to stop the gate.
    • Pedestrian Guard Rail: A Pedestrian Guard Rail (fence panels) should be fitted around the runback area of the gate. This is to prevent serious injury to a person should they stray into that area whilst the gate is operating.
    • Sounder: Sounders/Audible Alarms provide an audible warning that the automatic equipment is in operation.
    • Flashing Beacon: Flashing Beacons provide a visual warning that the automatic equipment is in operation.
    • Gate Infill: Weldmesh should be clipped to the gates infill bars infill to prevent pedestrians putting their limbs through. Other infills include palisade pales, sheet and wood infills. For more information please contact us.
