Spec in RTF Format
1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1.1 The unit (Code Blue CB 1-e) shall be an easily identifiable, vandal resistant communications device that is Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant, multi-functional, freestanding, and constructed of heavy steel. The unit shall be aesthetically pleasing and virtually impervious to damage, and shall include a high quality, vandal resistant, hands-free communications device, a powerful strobe light, and a vivid blue beacon that serves to identify the unit from a great distance.
1.2 The communication system (Code Blue CB3100) shall be designed so that a single touch on the communications device button shall immediately and automatically dial a preprogrammed number. This shall simultaneously activate the blue strobe light and an optional peripheral device such as a remote preset for closed circuit television (CCTV). Immediately after establishing the phone connection with the receiving party, the communications device shall be capable of sending a signal identifying the specific unit being activated. The strobe shall continue to flash, drawing attention to this location until the receiving party terminates the call.
2.0 CONSTRUCTION
2.1 The unit shall be a concentric steel cylinder (bollard) with a 12.75 inch diameter, a .25 inch wall thickness, and a height of 9 feet.
2.2 Tamper resistant fasteners manufactured by the McGard Company shall be used. It shall not be possible to enter the unit or remove any component without a special computer designed bit-wrench designed for this purpose. These bit-wrenches are supplied only by the manufacturer of the unit. All other types of fasteners shall not be acceptable due to the abundance of non-proprietary tools available for their removal.
2.3 The unit shall have an internal anchor baseplate that is fully welded to the bollard two inches above its base. The base plate shall be fabricated with a minimum .50 inch thick A-36 grade steel plate, and shall have a 5 inch diameter center hole for electrical conduit access, as well as four oblong holes on an 8 inch circular bolt pattern for the anchor bolts. External mounting is not acceptable.
2.4 The unit shall have an access opening for anchor mounting and electrical wiring that is near the base of the bollard.
2.4.1 The opening shall have a cover plate flush with the unit, whose wall thickness and radius shall be the same as the bollard. The cover plate shall fit precisely into the opening, have a weather resistant gasket to prevent water from entering the unit, and shall be held in place by two 1/4-20 by 1 inch countersunk, tamper resistant, proprietary fasteners as supplied by the manufacturer.
2.5 A dome top assembly shall enclose the top of the bollard, and shall consist of a cover plate, a gasket, a blue strobe light, and a Lexan-type polycarbonate come cover with a passive vent.
2.5.1 The top cover plate shall be of high quality, high-density cast iron that that shall be free of defects. It shall have a diameter that equals the diameter of the bollard, and shall have three tabs each with 10-24 X 1 inch stainless steel thumbscrews to facilitate mounting the finished assembly to the bollard.
2.5.2 A cylindrical, transparent dome that is six inches tall with a 12.50-inch outer diameter shall cover the top of the cover plate. The dome shall be made of clear Lexan XL type polycarbonate, and shall be sloped so that water does not pool on top of the unit.
2.5.3 The dome shall be placed over the combination blue beacon and strobe light and shall fit over the concentric ring in the cover plate. It shall be attached to the cover plate by means of three 10-24 X 1 inch tamper resistant proprietary fasteners attached through the dome and into the three offset tabs in the cover plate. The space between the dome and cover plate ring shall have a bristle style gasket to allow passive venting while minimizing entrance of insect and moisture.
2.6 A second opening shall be cut into the face of the unit at a point beginning 38.5 inches above the bottom of the bollard. The opening shall be 14.5 inches high at the forward edge, and 12.25 inches high at the rear edge. The lower edge of the opening shall be sloped from the rear to the front at an angle 35 degrees from the horizontal. The upper horizontal edge of the opening shall constitute an arc of 160 degrees in the face of the unit, and the sides of the opening shall be parallel and the same length.
2.6.1 The opening shall be totally enclosed by a 7 gauge steel plate that shall have an opening to allow for a communications device. The plate shall be seal welded to the bollard so that the faceplate and the bollard appear to be one unit.
3.0 MOUNTING
The freestanding unit shall be mounted onto four bolts that are set in concrete. Standard 3/4 x 24 inch galvanized anchor bolts with galvanized nuts and washers shall be used as supplied. Unit shall mount one-half inch above the concrete to allow air movement.
4.0 ELECTRICAL
4.1 All electrical components shall have quick-disconnect terminals for easy service or removal. All wiring shall be concealed within the bollard and shall not be visible from the outside of the unit.
4.2 The unit shall require 24 VAC and draw a maximum of 2.5 amperes under normal operation. The entire unit shall be surge protected.
4.3 The speakerphone shall require 20 mA loop current at the unit. A 22 to 26 AWG shielded twisted pair cable shall be used. Longer cable runs shall require the heavier gauge cable.
5.0 LIGHTS
5.1 Combination blue strobe and beacon: The unit shall have a combination lighting unit consisting of both a strobe and a beacon. The strobe shall generate approximately 1,000,000 candlepower, and have a flash rate of no less than 60 flashes per minute. The beacon shall always be illuminated. A deep blue polycarbonate prismatic refractor that distributes the light in a horizontal pattern, making the flash bright and visible even at great distances, shall cover the strobe. The light shall be located above the bollard.
5.2 The strobe light shall be automatically activated when the “PUSH FOR HELP” button on the communications device is touched, and shall continue to flash until the answering party deactivates the unit. The strobe cannot be turned off at the unit itself.
5.3 Faceplate light: A long life, LED light fixture shall be concealed within the unit above and directly forward of the communications device. This fixture will direct light onto the communications device faceplate, and shall be vandal resistant.
