eBOOM®: Portable Traffic Boom

The eBOOM® is a portable automated boom gate designed to work seamlessly alongside the eSTOP® system, while also operating as a standalone access control solution when required. It is wirelessly operated using the same HRC controller already familiar to eSTOP users.

When integrated with the eSTOP®, the eBOOM® allows operators to control both the traffic signal and physical access barrier simultaneously from a single interface. This provides motorists with clear visual instruction while introducing a physical control point — without compromising the portability that defines the eSTOP ecosystem.

Weighing just 21kg, the eBOOM® has been engineered for true field mobility. Unlike heavier boom gate systems that require wheeled bases or mechanical handling, it can be deployed by a single operator and quickly set up using ARROWES’ patented tripod system, without the need for permanent infrastructure.

The system is powered by a removable battery, allowing units to be charged independently without the need to connect the deployed device to mains power. This ensures continuous operation and flexible charging without interrupting site setup.

Using the same simple pairing process as the eSTOP®, the eBOOM® connects via the HRC controller and can be synchronised with traffic light states for coordinated operation — or used independently where signalling is not required.

This enables traffic personnel to manage site access safely from outside live traffic while adding an additional physical control measure where required.

Lightweight deployment
The eBOOM® body weighs just 21kg, allowing for fast setup and easy handling on site.

LiDAR obstacle detection
Integrated LiDAR prevents the boom arm from lowering onto vehicles, equipment, or personnel.

Approved visual warning
A red warning light flashes during lowering and when the arm is down — compliant with TMR requirements.

Secure control
Operated via a fully encrypted HRC / HRCX controller for reliable and protected communication.

Impact-safe design
The boom arm is designed to dislodge upon impact, reducing the risk of creating a dangerous projectile.

Audible lowering alert
A 4-second audible warning activates before the arm lowers to alert nearby workers and road users.

Adjustable reach
Plug-in boom arm extends up to 3.8m to suit a wide range of access points.

Flexible mounting
Deploy on ARROWES’ patented tripod or mount directly to a ute — no additional hardware required.

The eBOOM® is a portable automated boom gate that can operate as a standalone access control solution or integrate seamlessly with the eSTOP® system. Designed for single-person deployment, it connects wirelessly via the same Hand Remote Controller (HRC), enabling simple, coordinated control of both traffic flow and physical site access.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is part of an eBOOM set?

  • Electronic Control Head Unit (eBOOM)
  • Extendable boom arm (adjustable from 2.0m to 3.8m)
  • 30AH battery
  • ARROWES patented tripod legs
  • Integrated battery and head unit tray
  • HRC or HRCX controller
  • Associated charging equipment

Optional Items:

  • Head Unit soft carry case

  • Spare Batteries

Where is the eBOOM typically used?

  • Site access points
  • Civil haul road crossings
  • Work zone entry / exit control
  • Plant crossings onto public roads
  • Lane closures and stop-controlled access points

Anywhere traffic needs to be physically stopped — safely and reliably.

When I use the eSTOP and the eBOOM together, do I need to operate two handhelds?

No.

When paired together, the eSTOP® and eBOOM® can be operated from a single handheld controller.

This allows one operator to control both traffic flow and physical site access simultaneously, without the need to manage multiple devices.

The result is:

  • Simpler operation
  • Faster response
  • Reduced workload for site personnel

Is it compliant for worksite use?

Yes. The eBOOM is purpose-built for temporary traffic environments and designed to meet the operational requirements of Australian and New Zealand worksites
