TANSA LTT 313 ED Tripod Turnstile - Stainless Steel, Monoblock Construction, Unidirectional/Bidirectional Access, Emergency Drop Arm Feature, Custom Color Options
TANSA LTT 313ED Series Turnstile
The LTT 313ED series turnstile, which can be used internally and externally, is constructed with stainless steel. It’s also available painted with electrostatic powder paint in a color of your choice. The greatest advantage of the mechanism is its monoblock welded construction. In some turnstile brands, the mechanism is attached to the turnstile body by bolts and screws. In contrast, the head mechanism of TANSA turnstiles is manufactured as a single integrated block welded to the body. Thanks to such robust construction, there is no slacking or deformation in the turnstile mechanism over time.
A TANSA turnstile can be used both unidirectionally and bidirectionally thanks to its electromechanic design. The selection of direction can be configured easily by the client’s authorized security personnel. Access rights can be denied or granted remotely. All mechanical hardware and electromechanical control systems are manufactured at TANSA’s own production plants.
Design and Functionality
TANSA turnstiles are designed to excel in both internal and external environments. However, for applications in very humid or dusty settings, custom designed turnstiles with optional features are available if the appropriate specifications are provided at the time of the order. TANSA turnstiles are ideal for both unidirectional and bidirectional passages, which can be free or access controlled.
Even though access in both directions can be controlled by a card reader, the authorized security personnel of the client can override that setting for card free access during certain times of the day. TANSA turnstiles allow free exit out of the site or the building in case of a power failure, a feature mandated by law. If the customer wants the turnstiles to remain locked during such an emergency, such functionality can be provided as an option, contingent upon the written request of the client.
However, once set at the factory, the system cannot be switched back to the emergency exit state by the client, and it remains locked during all subsequent power failures. The rotational direction of the turnstile arms during entries and exits alike is regulated by internal sensors. The smooth centering of the turnstile arm after a pass through is accomplished by a spring mechanism and hydraulic shock absorbers.
Emergency and Safety Features
For emergency situations like fire or earthquake that necessitate rapid evacuation, TANSA turnstiles come with an optional drop off turnstile arm option, which is actuated by a signal received from the earthquake detection system. This ensures quick and safe exit from the building or the site. In a similar manner, the arm can drop off to the side with one push of a button during protocol events to allow unimpeded access for VIPs and special guests.
Quality Construction
The head is made of aluminum cast, and the arms are made of polished aluminum. During passages, the clothing of the users naturally brushes off against the turnstile arms. If the arms are made of matte finish metal, as people access in and out and brush off against the turnstile, only a part of the metal finish starts to shine, presenting a rather worn out cheap look. TANSA turnstile arms always look top of the line due to their bright polished aluminum construction.
