Raptor

Heald’s revolutionary rising bollard design is like nothing else on the market, combining the high security of a blocker with the flexibility of a bollard. The totally unique design provides exceptional protection for underground services, people and infrastructure in a package with a modern and distinctive aesthetic.

The Raptor system is a flexible shallow-mounted HVM Crash-Rated Bollard solution which is simple and easy to install and seamlessly integrates with Heald’s HVM Static Bollard Range. Patent protected, triple tested and operational after impact truly makes the Raptor unique amongst its competitors.

Heald’s Raptor combines the high security of a road blocker with the flexibility of a shallow mount bollard. The retractable bollard is the most resistant bollard of its type on the market due to its unique design and internal reinforcement which other bollards simply don’t have.

Tested to both PAS68 and ASTM standards, the Raptor halted a 7.5 tonne truck travelling at 80kph (50mph). During testing, downforce measurements were taken and were found to be extremely low, meaning underlying services and building structures remain protected upon impact, which is another unique feature of this security product. The retractable bollard also continued to function following the impact, maintaining emergency services access and on-going protection.

Available in three different operational variants, Hydraulic, Electromechanical and Manual.

The unique retractable bollard design only requires a very shallow foundation depth of just 480mm, making the product fast and easy to install.

The unique, patented design of the Raptor bollard uses a retractable motion to create an opening in the secure line of a protected area for authorised vehicles to enter and exit. As the bollard retracts fully flush with the ground following operation it’s extremely safe with no trip or trap hazards.

Heald offer three operational variants of the Raptor product, two of which champion Heald’s commitment to sustainability see these below:

The Electromechanical Raptor

A single electrically operated Raptor requires just one three phase 16A supply and can be up to 80% more efficient than hydraulic bollard systems.

There is also no requirement for hydraulic oil, eliminating the risk of spillages or environmental contamination.

An additional benefit is the elimination of hydraulic hoses which allows the roadside cabinet to be housed further away from the Raptor without the need for long hydraulic hose runs which can be difficult to install and replace.

The roadside cabinet itself can also be smaller because the Raptor does not require a bulky HPU, so less materials are required resulting in a smaller carbon footprint. This is also of benefit to the built environment as smaller cabinets are more easily concealed.

The Manually Operated Raptor

This requires no power supply so is ideal for remote locations or for those areas where running electrical supplies would be prohibitive due to cost.

This is also cost-effective, efficient and an ideal way of installing high security physical protection measures whilst reducing initial project and running costs.

Heald design all their products to be long lasting and enable the easy replacement of serviceable components. We offer support and maintenance packages to all customers to ensure that the consistently high levels of service and protection you expect can be maintained by our specialist team of engineers giving you peace of mind that your security investment is in good hands.

    HT1 Electromechanical Raptor

    Drive Operation:

    Electromechanical Drive (battery backup and manual override supplied as standard).

    The electromechanical Raptor is available as either an array or a singular unit. Due to the EM drive unit the Raptor uses 50% less electricity to operate and requires a small cabinet, which can be positioned at a greater distance from the products than its hydraulic counterpart, reducing the carbon footprint & spatial footprint.

    The electromechanical Raptor can run off a three phase 16amp supply for both standard and EFO (Emergency Fast Operation) versions. With the Non EFO variant running from a 3kW motor and the EFO variant running from a 4kW motor.

    Standard operation speed: 6 seconds

    EFO operation speed: 1.5 seconds

    HT1 Hydraulic Raptor

    Drive Operation:

    Hydraulic Drive (manual override supplied as standard).

    The Hydraulic Raptor is available as either an array or a singular unit.

    EFO (Emergency Fast Operation) is also available via an accumulator system.

    Standard operation speed: 6 seconds

    EFO operation speed: 1.5 seconds

    HT1 Manual Raptor

    Drive Operation:

    Manual Drive, raised and lowered using a hand drill.

    The Manual Raptor is available as either an array or a singular unit with each bollard operated independently from one another. Ideal for those locations or sites with no power available or low frequency usage requirements.

    Standard operation speed: 30 seconds
