Mobile crash barriers in roadworks clearly enhance traffic safety. Their containment capacity prevents road users from leaving the carriageway and colliding with oncoming traffic, while also providing safe working conditions on site.
Berghaus Verkehrstechnik presents the latest addition to the ProTec family: ProTec 80. The mobile crash barrier combines the advantages of the lightweight ProTec 50 with the sturdy stability of our compact ProTec systems. It weighs just 80 kg per metre, thus permitting a higher transport volume, and making ProTec 80 even more efficient.
As with all ProTec crash barriers, reflectors are fastened at regular intervals on both sides at the top and bottom of the elements, thus eliminating the need for additional yellow road markings parallel to the barrier.
The crash barrier elements are six metres long with a generous water opening, so that this system again prevents any dangerous accumulation of rainwater at the barrier. ProTec 80 is 50 cm wide and has a structural width of 24 cm. The system has been successfully tested according to DIN EN 1317 with free-standing installation in containment levels T1/ T3. Only the starter element was anchored in the H1 impact test with a 10 t truck. The lowest impact force level of A was achieved in all three impact attempts. And so ProTec 80 enhances our proven ProTec family portfolio by adding another interesting, easily handled crash barrier system for many different applications.
