About Ameristar Model 303 Bollard
Per Ameristar, the Model 303 is certified to ASTM F2656-18a M30/P1, stopping a 15,000 lb vehicle at 30 mph with under 3 ft of penetration. It is built for sites that need both perimeter security and day-to-day traffic control.
Two operating versions are available. The hydraulic model is PLC controlled from the hydraulic power unit, with normal operation in 5 to 8 seconds and an emergency fast operation of 1.5 to 2 seconds. The manual spring assist model suits locations without power or with constant monitoring.
Typical sites include government facilities, military installations, industrial sites, data centers, stadiums and petrochemical plants. Since these are engineered security systems, we quote from the project specification. When you request pricing, send the number of bollards, hydraulic or manual operation, the control and integration requirements, and the site drawings.
