The automatically retractable anti-contamination barrier provides reliable protection for industrial buildings, warehouses and storage areas against the spread of contaminated liquids and water ingress during heavy rainfall. It is designed to contain accidental liquid spills and contaminated firefighting water, preventing their uncontrolled spread beyond the protected area.
Thanks to its automatic operation, the barrier can respond to hazardous situations without the need to install additional protective elements. Under normal operating conditions, it remains raised above the opening, allowing unrestricted access for vehicles and personnel.
The barrier can be activated automatically by a flood sensor or a signal from the Electronic Fire Alarm System (EPS). When triggered, the protective gate descends from its raised position to close the opening.
Alternatively, the barrier can be operated manually using the control unit. These activation options allow the system to be adapted to the operational and safety requirements of the facility.
The barrier is primarily designed to contain initial liquid spills from storage areas and contaminated firefighting water generated during fire emergencies.
It can also provide protection against torrential rainfall, helping prevent the spread of water and hazardous liquids beyond the designated area.
Under normal conditions, the barrier remains in its raised position above the protected opening. This allows unrestricted movement of personnel, vehicles and material-handling equipment without interfering with everyday operations.
The protective gate is lowered only when required, eliminating the need for manual installation or storage of removable flood protection components.
The barrier is equipped with standard acoustic and optical signalling to indicate gate movement, helping alert personnel when the opening is being closed or reopened.
Optional equipment includes a smoke detector, an external remote activation button and extended acoustic and visual signalling. These features allow the system to be adapted to specific operational requirements.
The barrier is manufactured to suit the dimensions of the protected opening. The maximum opening width is 6. 000 mm, with a maximum water column height of 1.200 mm, depending on the selected configuration.
The structure is made of aluminium and incorporates EPDM seals. The standard finish is traffic red (RAL 3020), with alternative RAL colours available upon request.
The system can be equipped with a backup power supply to maintain operational readiness in the event of a power failure.
Routine maintenance is straightforward. The barrier can be cleaned using a soft, damp cloth, soapy water or suitable cleaning products.
