Delta Scientific's ‘Open Frame’ DSC 550 is shown here with Chain Sleeves.
The chain sleeves allow for quieter operation and help to protect the barrier chains.
This is a shallow foundation Open Frame vehicle barrier rated to M50/P1. The DSC550 was tested to the new ASTM F2656-20 standard which measures the penetration level from the leading edge of the barrier versus the back-side of the barrier like the previous standard. This can provide a difference of up to five additional feet (1.52 m) and makes the negative penetration level even more impressive.
The open frame design additionally provides a unique counter-balance design with no springs that need extra maintenance. The DSC550 alleviates the concerns of interference with buried pipes, power lines and fiber optic communication lines in urban applications. The shallow foundation also reduces installation complexity, time, materials and corresponding costs. The DSC550 is perfect for high water table locations and areas with corrosive soils.

![Delta Scientific: DSC7000 Beam Barricade K12 Crash Test
DSC7000 K Rated Crash Beam Barricades
The DSC7000 crash rated beam barricade is used worldwide at locations where wide roadways need to be secured from attacking vehicles. It provides protection between 12- to 20-foot wide with options to 30 feet (3.7 to 9.2 m). The 725-pound beam of the vertical lift barricade stops a 15,000-pound (66.7 kN) vehicle traveling 50 mph (80 kph) dead in its tracks, equivalent to 1.2-million foot-pounds of kinetic energy.
K Rated Barrier: Certified K-12 Crash Rated Barrier
Installation Design: Shallow Foundation Barrier
Model #: DSC7000
The DSC7000(H) version operates remotely by means of an integral Hydraulic Pumping Unit (HPU) that is wholly enclosed in the hinge end enclosure. The HPU can be powered from a local single or three-phase power source. Alternatively, the DSC7000(H) can be powered and operated automatically from a Battery Powered HPU, which can be maintained at operating power level by a solar array or by low power alternative sources.
The Manual version of the Model DSC7000 Drop Arm Beam Barrier System can be converted to fully automatic operation by the addition of a Delta hydraulic power unit and appropriate control options.
Barrier Clear Opening. The standard clear opening shall be 144 inches (3,66 M) as measured inside to inside of the hinge and locking buttress. The Barrier can be specified with a clear opening up to 240 inches [9,14 M].
Delta Scientific certifies the The DSC7000 beam has been tested to the United Kingdom BSI Standard PAS:68 2007 in the DSC7500 configuration. Crash tested with a 7.5 Tonne EU truck at 80 kph. Zero penetration. The beam held and was wedged in place. Second attack readiness Delta Scientific: DSC7000 Beam Barricade K12 Crash Test](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/q2jSo94mNFc/mqdefault.jpg)
