6.8.3 Maintenance tests
The anti-panic system (drop-arm) was developed to facilitate the exit of people in
emergencies. Thus, as a preventive measure, we recommend regular tests and
inspections in this device (at least once a month). We suggest that the card attached
to the turnstile be used for recording performed inspections, presenting date, name,
and signature of the responsible. If the mechanism presents any defect, request
maintenance to a Digicon technician or a qualified company.
Each inspection should carry out the following operational sequence for each of the
three arm:
set the arm on the horizontal position;
turn the turnstile off;
check if the arm drops (if the arm does not drop, contact the dealer or Digicon);
turn the turnstile on;
raise the arm until it reaches its normal position (the arm must stay in horizontal
position without external support; if it does not, contact the dealer or Digicon);
repeat the procedure three times for each arm.
