The new barrier, the Maxima Ultra 36, incorporates some of the latest innovative technology including self-diagnostic systems and Bft Automation’s U-Link technology. The Maxima Ultra 36 is designed to work in a number of different environments such as car parks of all sizes and commercial and industrial facilities with very heavy traffic levels. In an industry that prizes performance and reliability, the Maxima Ultra 36 is firmly aimed at providing a solution in intensive working environments. Recent testing has shown that the new barrier has performed up to 7 million movements without failure. The barrier also has an optional built-in self-diagnostic system which uses colour-coded alerts to provide maintenance information, via the LED light crown on top of the cabinet which also doubles as a traffic light signal. The Maxima Ultra 36 incorporates a number of innovative features designed to improve the work of professional installers such as three separate access points for simple maintenance and a top-mounted control panel. This is a product of Bft Automation’s process of continuous improvement based on feedback from customers and a desire to innovate. Matthew Batson – Director says: “We really believe that the Maxima Ultra 36 is an excellent addition to our already strong range of automatic barriers. It represents a significant step-forward in technology and we really believe that the self- diagnostic systems could be of huge benefit to our customers saving them significant time. I am delighted that we are able to introduce this new barrier into the market”. For more information on Bft Automation products visit: www.bftautomationuk.com
