Flood Protection for Healthcare and Life Sciences

Protecting critical lifeline institutions like hospitals from flood inundation is a core application for FloodBreak® Automatic Floodgates. Our passive automatic flood barrier technology allows vulnerable hospital entryways to operate as normal until a flooding is imminent or to meet emergency preparedness requirements.

Minimizing downtime is critical.  Although the healthcare & life sciences industry is undergoing transformational change, the need to remain open for patients, family & staff does not change.  Healthcare facilities must be there for them. Our flood barriers are passive automatic, they lay dormant beneath the surface until the flooding starts. The gates are then lifted by the flood water itself, eliminating the need for human intervention or power, providing permanent peace of mind.

Pushbutton Lift System Provides Added Convenience

An optional pushbutton lift system is available for customers who want the added convenience of raising their gates instantly, at the push of a button, for standard operating procedures and/or scheduled maintenance.  The system is fully decoupled from the passive operation for 24 x 7 full protection.  Learn More

As always, we can design custom systems to meet any use case or customer requirement.
