VALENCIA, CALIF.-June 13, 2001-Delta Scientifics' new DSC 701 high security bollard system can be customized with a variety of decorative casings to match any architectural design. Ornamental trim can be placed around the perimeter of the crash tube. Customers can also order the DSC 701 with steel trim directly attached to the tube or in the form of an aluminum, iron or bronze cast sleeve.
As a result, the DSC 701 bollards can be faceted, fluted, or tapered, feature rings or ripple effects, or be made to look like pillars. Using the cast sleeve, project architects are virtually unlimited in styles and aesthetics. Cast sleeves can also incorporate corporate logos or patterns of architectural style for a specific building.
As with other Delta barrier systems, the new DSC 701 can be galvanized for corrosion resistance, fitted with an internal warning light for increased visibility and engineered to suit high volume traffic conditions.
The Delta DSC 701 also uses proven Delta hydraulic power systems and controls to raise or lower the barricade to permit passage of authorized vehicles. As with all Delta barricade systems, the decorative bollard system can be operated by means of Delta control panels, card readers, and key pads or radio controls.
In a crash test, the new bollard stopped a 7.5 ton vehicle traveling at 44 mph (33,000 kg @ 70 kph). It has received a U.S. Department of State and DOD rating of K8, L2, the highest rating that the United States government has given to a bollard system. The new architecturally pleasing, high security bollard system is available now.
