The FAAC S-Style Round Barrier Boom Arm Articulated Beam Kit is designed for installations with limited ceiling height. By creating a hinged design, it allows the barrier arm to fold as it rises, making it ideal for parking garages and covered entryways. This kit supports a maximum ceiling height of 13 feet, providing effective lane coverage without requiring full vertical clearance. For proper operation, the arm must be balanced with the correct spring and pump sizing.
