- FAAC City is a metal cylinder with a piston mechanism enabling it to be raised and lowered by command.
- These bollards are highly resistant to impact and atmospheric agents. They are housed inside compartments set into road surfaces and control traffic and/or parking.
- There are 2 versions for different applications.
- This type of bollard should be used when access is restricted, or be combined with the automatic version of FAAC City.
It manages transit and/or parking without high costs and without the need for an electrical supply. In fact, thanks to the single-acting gas actuator, automatic manual lifting with the aid of a key is possible.
This version doesn’t require any electronic control equipment or electrical setups. The bollard is actually raised/lowered by a gas piston fitted inside (the piston raises it, but a manual thrust is necessary to lower it)
- The automatic bollard is activated by a signal from an access control device and is powered by a hydraulic system housed inside the foundation box in the ground. The bollard is manufactured with specified accessories fitted including a 10 metre power cable as standard (can be longer if required). The control board will link up to 9 slave boards allowing a maximum of 10 bollards to operate simultaneously.
- A more robust model of the automatic version is the FAAC CITY K275 H7000, which was specifically designed to meet increasingly frequent security requirements. The K series unit has higher impact resistance than the standard FAAC City.
