Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0125443A1] 1. A controllable barrier (1, 2), in particular for the protection of objects at nuclear power stations, comprising a controlled section (3), where from a determined deformation and/or in the event of a destruction of the barrier (1, 2) a signal is transmitted, characterised in that the control section (3) is formed by an ultrasonic beam (9) which travels in a cavity (6) of the undamaged barrier (1, 2) from a transmitter (8) to a receiver (8) and whose interruption triggers a signal, where the transmitter and receiver are arranged as a tandem ultrasonic head (8) at the one end of the controlled section (3) and a reflector (7) is arranged at the other end of the controlled section (3), with whose aid the ultrasonic beam (9) is guided from the transmitter (8) to the receiver (8).
