3.8 Control System
The THT-100 Control Box is located in the upper Top Channel Assembly. Typical mains power
supplied to the control system is 110-230VAC (refer to project specific drawings and
specifications). Within the Control Box, the Main Control Board (MCB) is powered by a 24VAC
power supply system which actuates the locking solenoids which in turn allow the turnstile to
lock and unlock.
A one-way controlled THT-100 incorporates one MCB and related components (for the direction
of access control), and a two-way controlled THT-100 utilizes two MCB’s and related
components (one set for each direction of access control).

4 Operating concept
4.1 Operating functions
There are many available operating functions of the THT-100 below is a list of typical
configuations. Keep in mind that only one configuration is possible per assembly and is
determined when the unit is manufactured. Changing the configuration of the unit can require
major mechanical changes. Refer to your order or have an authorized Boon Edam Inc. Service
provider inspect your THT-100 if you should have questions regarding the configuration.
Fail Lock - When power is turned off (denied), this configuration provides Fail Lock in
the specified direction. No rotation is allowed in the specified direction. All Fail Lock
units come equipped with a mechanical key override to override the locking system to
allow for free spinning of the rotary arms.
Key Override (Mechanical) - This key switch is typically found on any Fail Lock
direction unit on the underside of the top channel near the upper flange assembly.
When switched to override mode, Fail Lock function can be bypassed for free egress in
the selected direction. Note: FL/FL units will have two key overrides.
When power is restored to the unit, the system will automatically restore to its normal operating
function.
Fail Safe - When power is turned off (denied), this configuration provides Fail Safe
rotation in the specified direction of travel.
Note: Any combination of the above mentioned functions is available in the following
configurations:
•Access Control Rotation (i.e., Card read activation)
•Free Rotation
•No Rotation
Direction types (Clockwise, Counter Clockwise)
The typical THT-100 rotates in a Counter Clockwise (entry from non-secure moving into the
secure) direction. When authorization is granted, the unit can be manually rotated for one
segment (120 degrees) and return to the rest position and lock. Likewise, for exiting from the
secure to the non-secure side, the unit rotates in a Clockwise direction. Note: Some units may
be ordered with Clockwise entry and Counter Clockwise exit. Always refer to your order
for proper rotating direction.
•Controlled access CCW and CW direction: Both rotating directions require authorization.
The rotating section of the unit will become unlocked for the desired direction upon Access
Control System (ACS) signalling to the THT-100 control system that access has been
granted.
•Controlled access in one direction and free access in the opposite direction: Only
one direction requires authorization. The other direction does not require authorization and
rotates freely when pushed.
•Controlled or Free access in on direction and No Access in the opposite direction:
Access is only allowed in one direction (via access control or free access in). The opposite
direction does not allow traffic to pass.
•Free Access in both directions: There is no access control connected to this type of unit
and it will freely spin in either direction.

Layout and Rotation Directions
4.2 Access control system (ACS)
The THT-100 is designed to integrate with most access control systems by means of an
authorization signal. When the THT-100 receives the signal from ACS, the internal control system
releases the locking solenoid in the desired rotating direction.
4.3 Security
Several Security features are designed into the THT-100 unit. The following devices are typical
features found in most units.
•Restposition: When the rotor arms are in their respective locked rest position, they will be
held tight by the force of locking pawls and ratchet assembly. This will prevent movement of
the rotor arms by hand when the unit is in its locked home position
•Barrier Unit: Prevents unauthorized entrance by individuals trying to tailgate in the opposite
direction of a passage by an authorized user.
•Shield Assembly: Creates a secure compartment area where the rotor arms travel and
authorized users pass.

4.4 Optional and Configuration Features
Items indicated by an asterisk(*) are noted as optional.
Rotation Detection Switch*
The optional rotational detection switch is located within the Top Channel Assembly. When an
authorized user rotates the unit, this detection switch sends a dry contact closure back to the
ACS to notify that the unit has been turned. The unit will then reset and wait for additional
authorizations.
Home Position Switch *
When the THT 100 reaches its resting position, this is called the home position. A small micro-
switch is activated notifying the control system that the unit is in its home position.
Solenoid activation switch*
When a solenoid is activated a small micro-switch is activated notifying access control that the
rotor arms are unlocked.
Traffic Lights*
Optional traffic lights can be installed in the end posts of the shield surrounding the walk path.
The LED’s illuminate Red when the unit is locked and in stand-by waiting for an authorization.
When a valid card read signal is sent from the Access Control System to the THT-100, the LED’s
on the respective side will turn Green. Once a user passes through the unit, the LED’s will turn
back to Red.

Card Reader Mounting Box*
Optional Card reader mounting boxes can be provided which mount to the outer vertical post.
The size of this box houses most card readers and provides adequate space for wire routing of
access control systems.
Figure 4-3. Card Reader Box and Traffic Light (Options)
Speed Control Dampening System*
THT-100 units are equipped with Optional Speed Control Dampening System to reduce the
amount of bounce which the rotor arms can experience after a full rotation when pushed hard.
The Speed Control will apply force against the rotating direction to slow the unit down for a
gradual rest position (see Section 3.6 Speed Control Unit).
Out of Use Lock *
An optional mechanical lock can be ordered
with most THT-100 units. The lock
mechanism is connected to the Barrier
assembly and connects/locks to the Rotor Arm
preventing the unit from turning. A standard
pad lock can be used to secure the
mechanism (supplied by others).

Heel guards*
The bottom rotor arms of the THT-100 can be fitted with an optional heel guard protector to
reduce direct contact of heels with the rotor arms. If a unit is pushed against a person’s foot or
heel the foam rubber protector will reduce the impact.
Heating Element Strips*
Optional heating element strips can be ordered
and applied to the internal top channel mechanism
for cold climate use. Power requirements (110-
220 VAC) vary depending upon the model ordered
and are to be connected separately from the main
control system, by others.
Fire alarm
For units tied into a fire alarm system, The THT-
100 can be configured to work accordingly. Keep
in mind that power failure functions override fire
alarm functions (reference 4.4.3). The Fire Alarm inputs found inside the Main Control Box are
directional, and dependent upon the configuration of the locking system (e.g., Fail Lock Exit or
Fail Safe Exit). The following configurations are available:
•Fail Lock/Fail Safe – Under Fire, it is free out, no entry
•Fail Safe/Fail Safe – Free Entry and Exit
Fail Lock: Will release when the fire alarm is activated, however, if mains power is lost,
it will only open upon keyswitch bypass.
In case of a fire alarm, the rotor arms will allow free passage through the barrier. The
LED’s will turn green for free egress in the
configured direction. In case of simultaneous
power failure, reference 4.4.3 for Power Failure
functionality.
Electric Override Key Switch(es) (optional)
The secure side of the THT-100 incorporates electric
override keyswitches into the back side of the shield
assembly post. The keyswitches allow the owner to
select functions of Card Read In/Free In or Card
Out/Free Out when the respective key switch is
activated.
