The Terra Mount Blocker was successfully crash tested to BSI PAS 68: 2007. The Terra Mount Blocker does not require any foundations and is ideal for sites with restrictions on available foundation depths.
THE TEST
The test was conducted to prove the arresting capability of a Frontier Pitts Terra Mount Blocker when impacted with a 7500kg test vehicle at a speed of 80km/hour (50mph). In accordance with PAS 68-69 2007 and the Department of State test standard SD-STD-2.01 Revision A, Certification Class K12, a lorry was used to act as the test vehicle.
On impact the Terra Mount Blocker brought the vehicle to a complete halt with zero penetration onto site or past the impacted face of the unit.
After the impact the Terra Mount Blocker remains fully functional and the operating mechanism continued to raise and lower, without the need for repair.
The Terra Mount Blocker surpassed the standards for PAS 68-69 2007 and the Department of State Certification K12.
