5 BRIEF DESCRIPTION
5.1 Main features
•
The turnstile is designed either for indoor application or outdoor (see Clause 2).
Turnstile housing is produced from high quality stainless steel with ABS plastic
covers.
•
The turnstile plastic side covers are radio transparent that allows concealed
mounting of the ACS readers inside the turnstile housing.
•
The turnstile can be operated from the RC panel or WRC as well as from an ACS.
•
The turnstile is equipped with automatic anti-panic folding arms. Automatically free
of passageway is performed by bringing the barrier arm into vertical position at a
power loss or by alarm signal.
•
The turnstile houses 2 LED indication displays intended for status and passage
direction indication. It also features dynamic LED indication on the front side of the
cover.
•
The turnstile has outputs for connection of remote indicators.
•
The turnstile has relay outputs for connection of an intrusion detector and a siren. A
purpose-designed «Fire alarm» control input is intended for unlocking the turnstile
at the fire alarm command or from emergency unblocking button.
•
There are two modes for the turnstile control
—
a pulse control mode and a
potential control mode.
•
After each passage the turnstile provides automatic complete rotation of the barrier
arm to home position, i.e. automatic reset.
•
After the turn of barrier arm for more than 60º angle its reverse rotation is blocked.
•
Smoothness of reset and quiet operation are ensured by a damper.
•
The optical arm rotation sensors are built into the turnstile housing to ensure
accurate count of inputs to an ACS.
•
The turnstile is supplied with safe voltage
—
maximum 14V.
•
Galvanic decoupling of the outputs ensures noise-immunity of the turnstile
electronics.
5.2 Design
The design of the turnstile is shown in Fig. 2. Numbers in brackets correspond to Fig 2. of
this Manual.
The turnstile comprises a turnstile housing (1), hub (5) with three barrier arms,
RC panel (13) and additional equipment not included in standard delivery set. The turnstile
housing (1) is a formed and welded metal structure with a cover (2) containing the side
LED indication (7) and dynamic LED indication (4).
Inside the turnstile housing there are a CLB and a self-centering mechanism consisting of
a resetting device (a pusher, springs and a roller), a control mechanism with optical arm
rotation sensors and a locking device, and electromechanical barrier arm unblocking
device (automatic folding of barrier arm
“
anti-
panic”)
The self-centering mechanism also
contains a damper, an arm rotation sensor disc and a hub (5) with three barrier arms (3).
The side LED indication (located on the cover (2)) is intended for status and direction
indication: a Green Arrow indicates the direction of authorised passage (the turnstile is
open in the set direction); a Red Cross indicates ban on passage (the turnstile is locked).
The plastic side covers have highlighted zones for access card presentation. The LED
indication on the front side of the cover lights red indicating the ban on passage and
dynamic green in direction of authorised passage.
