What are automatic bollards?<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Automatic bollards are one of the traffic safety devices that have an automatic lifting mechanism and super strong anti-collision ability used to control the passage of road vehicles. It is deployed alone or as part of the parking barrier gate access control system and is otherwise known as electric bollards, electric rising bollards, hydraulic bollards, automatic rising bollards, automatic retractable bollards and retractable security bollards. Automatic bollards are standard at road junctions, toll booths, government offices, luxury apartment buildings and other establishments where security is required. The Electric automatic bollard<\/strong><\/u><\/strong><\/a> from KARSUN is a typical representative. Automated bollards provide a means to improve safety and convenience by permitting authorized vehicles to access restricted zones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Purchase Guide<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When considering a purchase of bollards, it is crucial to evaluate factors to ensure that the product meets your specific needs effectively. When purchasing automatic retractable security bollards, the following must be considered:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Calidad del material<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First, select high-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304\/316) or reinforced composite materials to enhance corrosion resistance and structural strength. Second, select ultraviolet-resistant, moisture- and temperature-resistant materials based on the installation site. Do not use low-grade plastics and raw metals, which deteriorate extremely fast under stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Control System<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The most important thing is to ensure compatibility with modern control systems for seamless operation and real-time adjustment. Choosing a system with anti-intrusion warnings (such as audible alarms, visual alarms such as shoulder lights) is necessary to enhance the security index of the site. Also choose between pneumatic, hydraulic or electric systems. Pneumatic systems are suitable for high pressure environments, while electric systems offer quieter operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Width of the passage<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The width of the passage determines the number of equipment we require. If we only need to intercept vehicles under usual conditions, we only have to ensure that the space between each bollard is not more than 1.5 meters, but in most cases, this space will be maintained at 1.2 meters. Different places may have some slight differences in width demands. For example, in our park square, we may not only block illegal cars entering, but may also want to catch some electric or tricycles, so our distance can be 60cm to 80cm. In short, we should control the spacing width based on our practical demands according to different usage places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Load Capacity<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To determine the maximum weight or force that the bollards must bear (e.g., vehicle impact, static pressure), refer to industry standards and project-specific requirements. To select a bollard with a load rating that exceeds your maximum expected load. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lightweight can withstand 250-500 kg (e.g., pedestrian area). Heavy duty can withstand 1000-2000kg + (such as industrial sites and high security areas). The Pilona hidr\u00e1ulica autom\u00e1tica con luz LED<\/strong><\/u><\/strong><\/a> has a high anti-collision performance and can still be used normally even after being hit by a 12-ton vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Safety Features<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Choose a product with an audible alarm feature. A beeping alarm can warn people of unauthorized entry or potential danger. In addition, shoulder lights with 360\u00b0 visibility enhance safety in low-light conditions. It is best to choose products with safety locks that prevent unauthorized activation or tampering and ensure that the bollards remain locked during critical operations. Fall protection refers to a system that stabilizes bollards in case of impact, reducing the risk of structural failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You have the choice of selecting from a range of steel thicknesses starting at the 6 mm thickness and also have the option to pick from various colors to match your preferences and requirements, for your location by customizing it to suit your needs. If you have any questions about how to choose electric bollards for driveways or the number of products you need, please don\u2019t hesitate to Contacto<\/strong><\/u><\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Control Method<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Various kinds of bollards offer a variety of choices to meet operational needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wireless Remote Control<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The remote control without wires allows users to operate the bollard from afar which comes in handy in situations requiring access or closure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Distribution Box Button Control<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The switch located on the distribution panel provides a means to manage the movement up and down of the bollard which is ideal for locations needing manual operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

External Button Box Control<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

External buttons control the lifting and lowering of the hydraulic bollards. Use this button to raise and lower the device. During the period when the action is not completed, the stop button can be used to stop the device\u2019s action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manual Control<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Make sure to lower the bollard using the valve in case of a power outage or system malfunction in the system, similarly raise the bollard by operating the pump to maintain operational functionality during power outages or system malfunctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Principio de funcionamiento<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The hydraulic bollards are usually composed of one or more metal cylinders, each of which has a piston inside. The hydraulic system generates a lifting effect by transmitting pressure to the piston inside the column. The movement of the steel frame structure of the bollards is controlled by a pump, with the assistance of a control system either remote or manual. The operation of the system is ensured by a PLC to provide stability and reliability during usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The working principle of the hydraulic bollard is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hydraulic pump oil supply: When the hydraulic bollard needs to be raised, the hydraulic pump begins to supply oil. The function of a hydraulic pump is to generate hydraulic pressure by the pump plunger driven by an electric motor, forcing hydraulic oil from the oil tank into the hydraulic rising bollard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hydraulic oil enters the hydraulic cylinder: Hydraulic pressure from the hydraulic pump enters the interior of the hydraulic cylinder via hydraulic pipelines when the hydraulic pump supplies oil. A hydraulic cylinder is a sealed container with a piston and piston rod inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hydraulic rising bollard Lifting: Hydraulic pressure pushes the piston in the upward direction on the entry of hydraulic oil in the hydraulic cylinder. Through this process, the lifting movement of the hydraulic rising bollard is obtained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hydraulic rising bollard descent: When the hydraulic lifting column needs to descend, the hydraulic pump stops supplying oil. Due to gravity and the pressure of the accumulator below the piston, the hydraulic rising bollard will automatically descend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Precautions for Use<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So as to ensure performance and longevity in using automated bollards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Regular Maintenance: Hydraulic systems and structural integrity should be regularly checked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Power Supply Stability: Ensure a stable power supply to prevent disruption of operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Emergency Procedures: Familiarize users with manual operation procedures in case of power failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Environmental Considerations: Protect against water immersion and corrosion by selecting models featuring waterproof design and high anti-corrosion performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
