180-degree Folding Articulated Boom Barrier Gate Arm for Vehicle Access Control

Description:

• A 180-degree articulated barrier arm is a type of folding arm used in automatic barrier gates, commonly for vehicle access control in parking lots, toll booths, or industrial settings. It folds at a 180-degree angle, allowing the arm to retract vertically above the gate operator, which is ideal for spaces with height restrictions or where a compact folded position is needed.

Specifications:

• Model No.: EF-ARM180
• Material: Aluminum Alloy
• Size:100*45mm
• Thickness:1.1mm
• Length 1-6m optional
• Red Retro Reflective Tape for Night Visibility
• Wooden Support 25.5 inch for Strength of Screw Fixing Side
• Stainless Steel Screw for Arm Holding after Fixing of ARM
• Both sides of the ARM PVC Plastic CAP for the prevention of dust and rust from Open weather.
• Providing Aluminum Support for Fixing the Articulated Barrier Arm.
• Amm Both Sides Cut for fixing Safety Rubber & LED Liaht.

Key Features:

• Design and Operation: The arm typically consists of two sections (e.g., 5′ or 6′ each, customizable up to 10-12 ft total) that fold in the middle, retracting upward. This allows for smooth operation in confined spaces.
• Safety Features:
  LED light kits for visibility, with colors indicating status (e.g., solid red when closed, flashing red in motion, green when open, amber for interlock).
  Built-in entrapment protection to prevent accidents.
  Auto-reverse on obstacle detection and double safety limit switches (photoelectric or motor memory sensors).
• Materials and Durability: Often made of steel or aluminum (e.g., 3” square aluminum tubing or 2mm thick cold-rolled steel), with weatherproof coatings for outdoor use. Some include impact-resistant cables or springs to prevent breakage.
• Control Options: Can be operated via:
  Remote control (up to 100m range).
  Push buttons, RFID tags, loop detectors, or integration with access control systems.
• Applications: Used in parking systems, toll stations, industrial sites, and high-security areas. High-speed models (e.g., 0.6s-6s opening/closing) suit high-traffic areas like highways.
• Additional Features:
  Manual release for power outages, with humanized clutch designs for easy switching to manual mode.
  Motor cooling fans and die-cast aluminum alloy motors for heat management.
  Customizable arm length and orientation (left or right-sided).
