Fluvial - 0.9m High Flood Stop Barrier
Our 0.9m high Floodstop barrier is a robust and effective flood defence system. The barrier can be assembled to any length and be arranged to suit any direction and opening. The system can be rapidly deployed by two persons with ease. It is often used by construction companies or utilities to protect assets from flood risk.
- Inspect ground conditions and clear any debris
- Position the 0.9m high Floodstop Modular Units out in a linear position for the chosen barrier length
- Fully insert the lower and upper connection keys
- Apply the required curvature to the barrier
- Pre-fill a minimum of every 3rd modular unit (with water ballast) along the assembled flood barrier. Any remaining units (with semi-circular front facing holes) will automatically fill with the rising flood waters. Any units without semi-circle holes must be pre-filled.
- Connect the 0.9m high Multi-hub unit to end of the assembled FLOODSTOP flood barrier
- Rotate the `cam-like` unit into the in-situ object (typically a wall) ensuring the side gasket is placed under pressure
- Fill the pod with water ballast
The flood barrier is assembled by connecting up the 1-metre long modular units using the universal key. When in use the majority of the modular units actually fill with the rising flood waters, which combined with the weighted universal keys ensures the assembled flood barrier holds back flood waters. All units and keys incorporate hard-wearing gaskets to ensure sealing.For acute cornering or wall connection in a Floodstop assembly a Multi-hub unit is simply used.In the above set up a free board is required.
