Automatic Flood Barrier Rotational Shutter from Flooding Solutions

Rotational Shutter (Flip Up) Auto Flood barriers

From Australia's leading supplier of flood mitigation devices for property protection, the Flooding Solutions Advisory Group, the Rotational Shutter is an automatic barrier that rises from the ground to provide instantaneous flood protection either by the push of a button or, by capturing floodwater, with no human intervention whatsoever.

Rotational Shutter barriers are mainly used to protect basement carpark entry ramps and other wider building apertures. When not in use the barriers disappear from view become part of the floor structure, so they do not intrude on the building's aesthetic. The barrier "shutter" is pushed (or pulled) into closed position by powerful hydraulic rams.

Operational safety is built into the system via audible and visual pre-deployment alarms. Sensors can be used to detect entrance obstructions and prevent barrier deployment.

Flooding Solutions have developed a "fail-safe" power supply system that isolates the barrier from mains failure. Power is supplied exclusively by 24 V batteries that are on permanent charge.
