Features of the MP5000 Mobile Barrier

The MP5000 is a towable, rapid deployment vehicle barricade.  With setup in 30 minutes, the MP5000 can secure your event quickly and provide emergency vehicle access with a push of a button.  The MP5000 can operate off standard 120v power or the optional solar panel system.

The MP5000 is one of Delta’s most popular vehicle barricades. It is now available in 12-, 16- and 20-foot clear openings. The portable barrier’s best features include: 

  • Towable to where vehicle security is needed
  • Sets up in less than 30 minutes
  • Self-contained and battery-powered

Crash Testing of the Barrier

The full-scale crash tests were conducted by an independent test lab following both DOS and ASTM testing criteria.  Levels achieved include DOS K4, ASTM M30 and ASTM M40.  The testing weight of the vehicle was 15,000lb traveling at both 30 miles per hour and 40 miles per hour.

How We Developed the MP5000 Portable Barrier

Delta Scientific continues to be the industry leader in product development by matching our client’s needs with the appropriate level of protection. We worked extensively with our military institutions to develop a rapid-deploying portable traffic barrier that allows all variations of vehicles to pass through checkpoints without incident. Key factors in this development were a large clear opening, quick deployment, simplicity of use, and an ASTM crash rating.

The 20’ MP5000 came to fruition because the US Army Rapid Equipping Force (REF) had a specific need. The mission of the REF is to equip operational commanders with commercial and government off-the-shelf solutions to increase effectiveness and reduce risk. The REF needed a portable 20’ barrier at checkpoints in Afghanistan. They required a unit with a clear opening larger than the 16’ version due to the size of vehicles in the theater.

Additional Images and Use Cases of the MP5000

Over 2000 MP5000 event barricades have been sold. These portable barriers are used to protect life and property at G20 meetings on city streets and at forward operating bases in Afghanistan.
