CR-25 Crash Beam Barrier Gate

B&B’s CR-25 Crash Beam Barriers Gates are engineered and designed to protect at-risk access points and prevent forced vehicle entry or exit for industrial, commercial and institutional facilities requiring medium to high security. Available in manual, hydraulic or electromechanical operating modes, the crash beam barrier gates are ideally suited and for oil refineries, chemical plants, train yards, storage facilities, technical centers, nuclear facilities, embassies, military installations and government agencies.

The CR-25 a minimum gate opening of 12 feet (3.7 m) and a maximum of 28 feet (8.5 m). The units are capable of immobilizing a 10,000 lb. (4,535.9 kg) vehicle traveling 18 mph (29.0 km/h). Basic components of the crash beam barriers include the standard vertical to horizontal arm with an energy absorption cable assembly, hinge post, receiver/latch post, cable-reinforced crash beam and automatic controls.

With a gate arm made of 4-inch aluminum pipe lined with a 7/8-inch, stainless steel wire rope, the CR-25 barrier has been successfully crash tested for energy absorption capacity per U.S. Navy Specifications and Department of the Army rating level of KN1-LN2. Models CR-25 and CR-25M are listed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the document, Protection Against Malevolent Use of Vehicles at Nuclear Power Plants (NUREG/CR-6190 Vol. 2, Rev. 1).
