Function
The pedestrian barrier MPH is used for a fast access control of
pedestrians e.g. at the reception area of public buildings, hotels,
companies or museums. With suitable roofing, it can be used out
of doors, e.g. in sports stadiums.
The modular system permits numerous different lane
configurations.
Basically, the pedestrian barrier can be used in both directions. In
multi-lane installations with high throughput rates, the entry and
exit lanes can also be configured for one-way passage.
In its normal state, the pedestrian barrier is closed. The glass
wings only open after authorisation from an external command
unit, such as a card reader.
Attempted cheating by unauthorised persons, e.g. passage in the
wrong direction, or an attempt by a second person to follow without
authorisation (tailgating) is recognised and activates the alarm
system. Recognition in such cases is by several infrared light
barriers.
With MHTM direct drive technology, the glass wings can be
blocked in any position, e.g. by hand. No slipping clutches or
similar devices are required.
In the event of a power failure, the glass wings are opened
automatically by springs.
