What is the AIRBAR for vehicles?

AIRBAR is a highly visible inflatable vehicle mounted flexible membrane that, when deployed, helps to create a safety zone around the vehicle. It was designed specifically to help protect drivers and vulnerable road users (VRUs).

The Technology of AIRBAR

 

Manual Deployment

When a vehicle is stationary, the driver can activate AIRBAR from within the cab, which helps to create a safer and wider working zone for roadside workers in a live lane who are facing oncoming traffic.

 

Automatic Deployment

When the left turn indicator is activated, the nearside AIRBARS automatically deploy at less than 15 mph, providing a visible warning to cyclists or other VRUs.

 

 

Soft Safety Membrane

The AIRBAR is a brightly coloured inflatable flexible membrane.

 

 

Bright Flashing LEDs

A row of built-in flashing LEDs, when combined with the AIRBARS vividly coloured membrane, provides a very visible warning to other road users.

Inflatable System

AIRBARS use an exclusive air control technology that inflates using compressed air at low pressure and contains a rebound mechanism to recoil.

Selectable Deployment

When working beside a parked car, drivers can activate AIRBARS on the nearside, offside, or both to create a safer area.

 

Indicator Stalk Deployed

When a vehicle is travelling less than 15 mph, the nearside air bars automatically activate when the vehicle turns left at a junction by activating the left indicator stalk.

 

How Many AIRBARS?

You can have either 2 or 4 AIRBARS installed. Either 2 on the rear of the vehicle either side, 2 on the nearside or 4 front and rear of the vehicle.

The AIRBARS can either be manual deployment via a button in the cab or automatic deployment under 15 mph.

 

The AIRBAR at Night

The AIRBAR LEDs are extremly bright at night. Your vehicle can be visably seen not just with a reflective stip that cones provide but a very bright flashing LED light strip. The LEDs coil with the AIRBAR when it deflates giving you a complete all in one system.
