Description
FAAC B680H Hybrid Barrier Operator – 104680
The FAAC B680H Hybrid Barrier Operator is a high-performance automatic barrier operator designed for intensive and continuous-use vehicle access applications.
Combining FAAC hydraulic technology with a high-efficiency brushless motor, the B680H delivers fast, smooth and reliable operation across barrier boom configurations from 2 metres through to 8 metres.
The 104680 forms the main operator assembly of the B680H system, allowing the external cabinet, boom and appropriate pocket and balancing spring assembly to be selected separately according to the required installation.
FAAC Part Number: 104680
⚡ Hybrid Brushless & Hydraulic Technology
The B680H combines a 36V brushless electric motor with FAAC’s proven hydraulic drive technology.
This hybrid arrangement provides smooth and controlled operation while allowing the same B680H operator to accommodate both short and long barrier boom configurations.
FAAC specifies:
- 36V brushless motor
- Hydraulic drive transmission
- 240W maximum power
- Motor speed from 1,000–6,000rpm
- 3.2l/min motor-pump capacity
- FAAC HP Oil
FAAC states that the B680H system is designed to exceed 2,000,000 operating cycles when combined with its long-life balancing spring system.
🔄 Continuous Duty Operation
The B680H is specifically designed for intensive vehicle access applications where the barrier may be required to operate repeatedly throughout the day.
FAAC specifies a 100% duty cycle and continuous-use rating, making the B680H particularly suitable for:
- Commercial car parks
- Apartment and strata complexes
- Industrial facilities
- Warehouses
- Commercial premises
- Security entrances
- High-traffic vehicle access points
🚀 Fast & Controlled Movement
Opening speed varies according to the length and configuration of the barrier boom.
FAAC specifies opening times ranging from approximately:
- 1.5 seconds at 90° with a 2m boom
- Up to 6 seconds at 90° with an 8m boom
Electronic deceleration via the integrated encoder provides smooth and controlled movement as the barrier approaches its open and closed positions.
🧠 Magnetic Absolute Encoder
The B680H incorporates a magnetic absolute encoder for precise monitoring of the barrier position.
The encoder allows the electronic control system to accurately manage:
- Boom position
- Acceleration
- Deceleration
- Opening and closing movement
- Obstacle detection and reversal
FAAC specifically highlights the absolute encoder as providing complete control over barrier movement and allowing the boom to reverse when an obstacle is detected.
📏 2m to 8m Barrier Configurations
A single B680H operator can accommodate FAAC barrier boom configurations from 2 metres through to 8 metres.
Depending on the required passage width, the operator can be configured with the appropriate FAAC Round S or Round L boom system and corresponding pocket and balancing spring assembly.
This allows the 104680 operator to form the basis of a wide range of B680H barrier configurations without requiring a different operator for each boom length.
🎨 Separate External Cabinet
The B680H uses a removable external cabinet that is selected separately from the 104680 operator.
We offer two cabinet options for the B680H:
- 416016 – Flame Red RAL 3020 Cabinet
- 416020 – Stainless Steel Cabinet
The removable cabinet design allows the required finish to be selected when configuring the complete barrier system.
⚙️ E680 Electronic Control
The B680H incorporates the FAAC E680 electronic control system.
Combined with the magnetic absolute encoder, the E680 manages the operation and positioning of the barrier and provides the electronic control platform for compatible safety and access control accessories.
