DISCLAIMER

Please note - careful consideration must be devoted to the selection, placement and design of a Barricade installation. Just as in the case of any Barricade system, perimeter security device or security gate that blocks a roadway or drive, care must be taken to ensure that approaching vehicles as well as pedestrians are fully aware of the Barricades and their operation. Proper illumination, clearly worded warning signs, auxiliary devices such as semaphore gates, stop-go signal lights, audible warning devices, speed bumps, flashing lights, beacons, etc. should be considered. Delta has information available on many such auxiliary safety equipment not specifically listed herein. It is strongly recommended that an architect and/or a traffic and/or safety engineer be consulted prior to installation of a Barricade system. Delta will offer all possible assistance in designing the operating equipment, controls and the overall system, but we are not qualified, nor do we purport to offer either traffic or safety engineering information.

DELTA MODEL DSC501 PHALANX® BARRIER SYSTEMS

Safety Precautions

At all times observe good safety practices when working on either the electrical or mechanical system. Particular attention should be paid to the danger of working on the Barrier when the power is on. Barriers are powerful hydraulic presses that can easily crush anything in their way.

Keep hands free of the mechanism when the power is on or the HPU is up to pressure. Turn off the electric power and bleed the hydraulic pressure down to zero before working on any part of the system. Traffic should be controlled around the Barrier during any work so that vehicular accidents do not occur if the Barrier should happen to rise. After work is complete, do not allow traffic over the Barrier until all control and safety functions have been verified to be properly working.

Barrier ramp braces are provided with each Barrier system. The Barrier ramp braces should be in place and firmly bolted in position when working under the Barrier ramp. The Barrier ramp braces are stowed in the Barrier frame when not in use. This makes them readily available for use at all times.

Particular attention should be paid to the rigging and lifting equipment used when installing, moving, removing, relocating or servicing any of the heavy elements of the Barrier system. The rigging and lifting gear should be properly sized and attached when lifting heavy components in all instances.

Each Barrier ramp has two attachment points (threaded 3/4"-10) that are located on opposite sides of the ramp and in line with the center of gravity of the ramp. The attachment means between the Barrier ramp and the lifting gear must be sized or designed to take into consideration both the vertical lift as well as side loading conditions. The use of properly sized spreader bars or dual vertical lifts are recommended.

The Barrier ramp attachment points cannot be used to lift the entire Barrier assembly.

Installation Scheme

The installation is best performed by removing the Barrier ramp prior to placing the foundation frame into position in the foundation excavation. See the above precautions about working under the Barrier ramp plate. Disassembly of the Barrier is outlined in the Maintenance section of this manual.

The Barrier foundation frame is to be cast in place. The outside of the Barrier foundation frame is the form; no additional flashing or forming should be necessary. The excavation for the foundation frame can be individual for each Barrier in a set or the foundation can be common for all Barriers if more than one is installed. We recommend the common foundation as providing the strongest Barrier system.

The front face (visibility panel) of the Barrier is to be mounted toward the direction of the vehicle threat (see Figure 1). Usually, when Barriers are mounted in inbound and outbound lanes, all Barriers will be facing outside the facility. Some special installations such as sallyports may have the inner Barrier facing towards the inside of the facility. Check with the security manager if there is any question as to the proper orientation of the Barriers.

Figure 1 - The visibility panel of the Barrier faces towards the vehicle threat.

The excavation for the foundation frame can be individual for each Barrier in a set or the foundation can be common for all Barriers if more than one is installed. We recommend the common foundation as providing the strongest Barrier system. See the appropriate foundation drawing in the Drawing Section of the manual. The foundations shown on Delta drawings, unless specially noted, are designed on a soil load bearing factor of 1.5 tons/ft2 [14,600 kg/m2]. Only a very boggy or migrating site would require additional foundation.

In multiple barricade installations where two or more units are cast into a common foundation, the inter unit spacing can be reduced from any desired spacing to zero if required by the layout (see Figure 2).

The 6 X 6 structural steel beam, which extends out each side of barrier, can be shortened on the side(s) adjacent to the unit(s) sharing the common foundation. Spacing between the shortened beams should be kept to a minimum. Reinforcement in the inter barrier area should be distributed uniformly while repeating the placement pattern described in the single barrier foundation design. Reinforcement of the central concrete beam running transverse of the barrier should be continuous through all barriers.

Figure 2 - Two Barriers shown side by side - any required distance between them is possible.

Care should be taken to mount the Barrier in an area that is not subject to flooding. It is not necessary for the Barrier to be level or plumb to operate. If the roadway is not level the Barrier may be placed to match the contour; however, be sure the appearance factor is considered. An installation where the equipment is not level even if it follows the terrain can be distracting (see Figure 3).

Figure 3 - Two Barriers shown side by side and following the slope of the road. While this is a satisfactory method of installation, the appearance factor should also be considered. Note that the drains must be placed in the low side of the Barriers.

The Barrier can be secured in the foundation by leveling with concrete blocks or if desired held to temporary wooden frames to assure alignment during the pour. Before the pour, the frame of the Barrier should be checked for straightness. This can be accomplished by using a string line along each side. Pouring concrete with the sides (especially the front) curved in can allow the barrier ram to hit the frame before obtaining full height. Call the factory if the string line detects the frame more than 0.20 inch [5 mm] out of line.

Figure 4 - The Barriers should be placed on a crown above the surrounding roadway to prevent excessive water from draining into the Barrier foundation frame.

Figure 5 - Cross-section through the Barrier frame. Note that in this case, the Barrier is sloped to the rear. The drain lines are installed in the rear cylinder bays, the water in the chain troughs will flow to the rear. Barriers that are level or front down will be drained at the chain trough. The water in the cylinder bays will flow forward.

Good Drainage – The Key to a Successful Installation

Poor drainage of the Barrier system is one of the top reasons for a poorly operating Barrier system. The steel structure of the Barrier deteriorates and the mechanical components fail.

Attention to drainage begins before the actual installation. The selection of the drainage method must be made with knowledge of the conditions that exist on the ground. Actual conditions must be known and not guessed.

Siting

Care should be taken to mount the Barrier in an area that is not subject to flooding. Do not allow the Barrier(s) to be the drainage for the surrounding roadway. If the Barrier(s) are mounted on a slope, a trench drain should be installed uphill of the Barriers to remove water flowing down the road (see Figure 6).

Drain Types

The best results will be had by providing hard drain lines to a sump well. The sump well can be connected directly to the storm drain or sewer system, or water in the well may be pumped to another location for disposal. The sump well also allows skimmers and other devices to remove tramp oil or contaminants from the water as needed. This type of drainage is mandatory where the water table is within the depth of the Barrier foundation. See Delta drawing 90900 for a suggested sump well design. Drain lines should be sized for the expected rainfall.

French drains or other gravel trench drains can only be used in areas of relatively light rainfall and with soils that have an ability to disperse water. Do not expect a French drain to function in clay or soils with an impervious layer of mineralized soil (hardpan) or relatively impervious rock layers underlying shallow soils.

Figure 6 - Delta Phalanx Barrier installed in roadway ramp. Note the trench drain in the rear to minimize the amount of water that the Barrier drainage must handle.

Barrier Placement

The roadway should be crowned in the area of the Barrier to prevent standing water from draining into the Barrier foundation frame. It is not necessary for the Barrier to be level or plumb to operate.

If the roadway is not level the Barrier may be placed to match the contour; however, be sure the appearance factor is considered. An installation where the equipment is not level even if it follows the terrain can be distracting (Figure 3).

Mount the Barrier above the surrounding roadway surface by 1 inch [25mm]. See Figure 4. By doing this, only the water falling in the immediate area of the Barrier can find its way to Barrier drains. (The slight bump is also desirable to help keep vehicle speeds low around the Barrier.) If the Barrier must be installed flush to the roadway for operational considerations, provide trench drains in a perimeter about the Barrier(s) to minimize roadway water from finding its way down into the Barrier (see Figure 6).

Environmental Control

Delta Scientific Corporation's vehicle Barrier systems can be used in all geographical areas. Since the early 1980's, Delta Barriers have been successfully installed in locations just south of the Arctic Circle (Oslo and Stockholm), in extremely cold areas of the United States such as Idaho Falls and Grand Forks, and in all the capital cities of Europe. Tropical installations include more than thirty locations within ten degrees latitude of the Equator. In between, installations run from temperate areas to Middle East desert sands.

Heating

Cold climate installations require the use of heaters to maintain proper oil viscosity and to eliminate the possibility of snow or ice blocking the Barrier mechanism. Depending on the hydraulic power unit size and rating, Delta supplies heaters ranging from 60 to 500 watts @ 120/240 volts for the oil reservoirs. The hydraulic hoses to the Barriers are to be run below the frost line where temperatures are a relatively constant 45 to 55ºF [7 to 13ºC]. If desired, the ducts carrying these hoses can be heat traced at time of installation.

The Barriers themselves may require heaters, the ratings of which are determined by the length of the Barrier and available operating voltage. Ratings in the range of 1,000 to 2,000 watts are common.

Delta strongly recommends that the entire roadway in the immediate vicinity of the Barriers be heat traced. This is to minimize the chance that a vehicle could lose control or traction in front of the Barriers. Also, in many cases, guard and/or inspection personnel will need to work on a vehicle in front of the Barriers. The heat tracing will reduce the personnel dangers of working on snow and ice.

Roadways containing Barriers cannot be plowed. The snow plows will shear top plate bolts and damage inspection covers. Only hand clear snow around the Barriers. Snow removing chemicals such as salt should also not be used around the Barriers, as the corrosion of the steel components will be greatly accelerated.

1021187883N Highlight

Drainage provisions in Barriers subject to freezing will also need some consideration. Heat tracing of the drain lines and/or sump well heaters may be needed to help remove the melted snow and ice from the Barrier foundations.

Cooling

Barrier installations in areas where the temperatures are frequently above 100ºF [38ºC] should have the hydraulic power units located in temperature controlled equipment rooms or be equipped with oil coolers. The simplest but least effective method is an air cooled heat exchanger. Very large surface areas are required to cool oil to 160ºF [71ºC] when only 130ºF [55ºC] cooling air is available. A more compact installation can be realized if a water cooled heat exchanger is located in the reservoir tank. Typically, less than one gallon per minute [4 liters per minute] of water at 100ºF [38ºC] or less is required. If the water stream can be returned to a cooling tower or other closed loop system, no waste of water is incurred.

Sand and Dust

Barrier locations in sand or dust areas require a few additional precautions. The hydraulic power units should be mounted in equipment rooms that can be pressurized to maintain positive air flow out of the room. This minimizes the accumulation of sand, dust and other abrasive materials on the hydraulic equipment where it could find its way into the oil and sensitive mechanical devices.

Filter and fluid changes may be more frequent than at other installations.

Barriers in sand swept areas may need to have the foundation tubes cleaned frequently. This is usually accomplished by using an industrial type vacuum to sweep out the accumulated debris.

Sand accumulation can be minimized by placement of suitable fences or walls around the Barrier area.

Drainage

Drainage and protection against subsurface water is important. A bed of aggregate under the Barrier(s) will handle rain water in most circumstances. Especially wet locations should have the Barrier provided with a drain line plumbed to a sump well or sewer as appropriate.

While the machine is designed for harsh environments, prolonged submersion will eventually cause both appearance and operating deterioration.

The location of the drain line is up to the installer. This allows the drain to be placed in the low point of the Barrier frame depending upon whether the Barrier is placed flat or sloped in any direction. The chain and cylinder bays are interconnected at the factory, so only one drain line is required. We recommend a 3" [75 mm] minimum drain size. The french drain (soak-a-way) should utilize a perforated pipe from the Barrier into the gravel bed. Otherwise plumb the drain to the sewer or a sump well using suitable materials.

Corrosion

Very occasionally a site is both wet and unfriendly, i.e., either highly acid or basic. In these cases, anodic protection is recommended. Delta will be happy to review specific job locations and make suitable recommendations where such protection is needed.

Interconnect

Provisions for electrical and hydraulic feed should be made prior to pouring the foundation of the Barrier.

The access box of the Barrier (furnished loose) is provided with multiple 3" knockouts. Locate the access box on the side of the Barrier that is nearest the HPU. We recommend that 3" PVC pipe be run from the hydraulic power unit to this sleeve to provide a conduit through which hoses can be pulled. Alternately, rigid steel pipe can be run from the HPU to the Barrier directly buried in the ground. See the Mechanical System section of this manual for a discussion of the various ways to interconnect the Barrier with the HPU. Block out the unused hydraulic connections on the side opposite the access box with Styrofoam or similar so that the piping can be removed if required in the future.

The (optional) fully up and fully down limit switch and front face light conduits are also located on the access box. Units with heaters will require a conduit for the Barrier heaters. Rigid metallic conduit or equal is to be run to these. Be sure that appropriate fittings are used that will allow wire to be pulled. It is too late to correct this error after the concrete is poured!

Either multi-conductor cable or single conductor wire can be used at the option of the installer. The wire size should be selected based on the pull length, current and voltage requirements and local codes and specifications.

Terminals are designated by a PCB board number followed by two letters followed by the terminal number, i.e. 1 CB 11. The first number is PCB Board number, in this case Barrier # 1, the first letter is the strip location, in this case "control circuit", while the second letter defines the terminal voltage. `A' and some 'C' codes are low voltage 24 VDC. Some 'B' & 'C' codes are the specified local control voltage.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION CHART

CONTROL CIRCUIT

The Control Circuit is fed from the customer's local AC control voltage supply (100-120/1/50-60).

Connection is to terminals CC 1(+) and CC 2(-). Supply should be adequate to provide a minimum of 750 Watts of power.

The control circuit contains a power supply, which reduces the local voltage to 24 VDC for use on the remote control panels. The feed out of the control circuit for these remotes is on terminal CA 1(+) and CA 2(-). Standard power capability is 150 watts. Battery back up to power supply is supplied.

Note: Use caution when installing the field conduits and wiring to the control circuit enclosure.

Shield metal chips and wire fragments from falling on to or in to components. Component failure can be caused by careless installation.

POWER UNIT MOTORS

The motor has been ordered and supplied to the actual site voltage. Please confirm before hookup. The motor is factory wired to an automatic starter controlled by the hydraulic power unit pressure switch and oil level switch. Thermal overload protection is integrally provided.

The customer should provide branch circuit protection as required by national and local code.

Care should be taken in arriving at the correct wire size for the length of cable provided.

HYDRAULIC POWER UNIT WIRING

The three phase power is brought into the HPU terminal box to the line side of the door mounted disconnect switch at L1, L2 and L3.

Confirm that the motor runs in the correct direction by checking rotation of the motor fan or output coupling with the decal direction arrow. If motor runs in the wrong direction, reverse any two incoming wires at L1, L2 or L3; motor should now run in the correct direction.

Power for the starter contactor coil is the same as the primary voltage of the control circuit. Coil voltage legend plates are on the starter so that this can be confirmed. Connection points for the coil power are 'CC 1(+)' and 'CC 2(-)'. Starter coil power consumption is less than 100 va inrush, and less than 10 va sealed.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION CHART

SNOW MELTING HEATERS

The Barrier system kit is be furnished with electric heaters for the purpose of melting snow and ice which may otherwise freeze the Barrier in either the up or down position. The heater thermostat dial should be set at 45 degrees. This allows for the melting of snow during cold weather as well as moisture and condensation control, The hydraulic oil reservoir is also provided with an immersion heater located within the oil level. It is equipped with a thermostat dial and should be set to a value between 60 to 75ºF [15 to 25ºC].

The electric feed to the tank heater is fused in the control circuit. See appropriate wiring diagram for the connections.

The Barrier heater connections are direct to the customer's power distribution panel.

Important: If the heater control circuits are turned off seasonally and before energizing the heater circuits at the start of each season, the elements must be megger tested.

This is typically done with a megger capable of delivering 500 volts to the circuit. A value in excess of 50,000 ohms to ground is acceptable for energizing the heater circuits. Call the factory if a lower reading is found.

NOTE: It is not recommended for the Delta Scientific DSC501 Phalanx system used by the USAF Vehicle Barriers Program that the heaters be turned off seasonally.

Failure of the elements will in no way cause the Barrier to malfunction unless there is an ice or snow build up inside the machine.

'DELTA' STYLE HYDRAULIC POWER UNITS

DSC501 SERIES PHALANX® BARRIERS

THEORY OF OPERATION

Power Source

Delta Scientific Corporation's barricade systems are powered by a hydraulic oil power unit (HPU).

This unit is typically mounted remote from the Barrier(s) and attached to them by hoses or steel pipes. The hydraulic power unit provides the tremendous lifting force necessary to raise the heavy steel weldments of the Barriers. The forces generated are in the range of 20,000 to 25,000 pounds for these large Phalanx® Barricades. An industrial grade electric motor drives the hydraulic gear pump to produce the HPU system pressure.

Power Storage

The HPU stores the pressurized hydraulic oil produced by the gear pump in an accumulator. The accumulator thus provides a high pressure reserve of oil available to move or maintain the position of the Barricade.
