Overview

all-guardians-blue-web
The eGuardian - Model B-2AH Automatic Bollard is a retractable bollard that operates using a low power electric motor and utilizes a PLC to control inputs from access control systems, product safety and position sensors and emergency access systems.

This 20"(or 32") tall x 10" diameter bollard was designed to resist a high impact. Available in a powder-coated finish of choice.

By connecting a third party access control system (card reader, keypad, RFID, remote control)or a simple push button station inside of a guard shack, the eGuardian can be lowered from the standard, and most common, raised position to allow authorized access for one vehicle.

By connecting an emergency access system (Knox box, strobe sensor, siren sensor, etc.), the bollards can be lowered to allow police, fire and ambulance access.
