(2) It is equivalent to IP54 waterproof under proper installation. However, it cannot work in the region that may suffer
typhoon.
(3) If the temperature is -30ºC, a heating plate is suggested to install. It might need multiple times to power on while
getting hot automatically through the self-check program.
(4) The service life of this equipment may be shortened if it works outdoors in coastal areas or a region prone to acid
rain.
2. If the power and signal cables are connected properly, this equipment can be immersed in water of 250 mm deep, but it
must not be powered on for operating when it is immersed in water.
3. It is highly recommended that a card swiping warning line to set for prompting passers-by to swipe cards properly and a
reasonable passage width shall be set to prevent passers-by from squeezing in illegally.
4. It is recommended that a warning sign is placed at a conspicuous position, and prompt: "Please swipe your card
outside the warning line and pass in order. Thank you!”
The maximum tolerance of the tripod turnstile's arms
Please note that the maximum stress tolerance at the center of the arm is 80kg and at the ends of the arm is 40kg (See
Figure 5-1).When the impact force on the tripod turnstile reaches the designed limit, the arms break down first to ensure
that the whole equipment is not damaged and the passer-by is not injured.
Figure 5-1
In case of emergencies
This equipment is designed to drop down arms automatically if there is power failure thus make the passage being open to
the public. And there is interface in the turnstile control board to connect an emergency switch (J6 Drop Arm) which would
make the tripod turnstile keep open in case of emergencies. Note after power restoration, wait for more than 6s and then
lift the arms manually.
5.2 Maintenance
Forming maintenance consciousness
The tripod turnstile needs to be maintained regularly and repaired once it is damaged. It is recommended that warning
signs being placed at conspicuous positions for prompting passers-by to pass in a proper way and in good order.
Reasonable maintenance consciousness helps to guarantee long-term usage of the tripod turnstile.
Regular maintenance
Cleaning and protection liquid dedicated for stainless steel are recommended to wipe the outer shell of the equipment
regularly. The tripod turnstile used outdoors or in an environment with lots of dust must be maintained once a year at least,
for example, clean up the dust and add appropriate lubricating oil to Tri-lobed Wheel. Note regular maintenance should be
performed after power off the equipment.
