The ZKTeco FBL 720 (KTI02008004FB72) is engineered as an intermediate modular lane-builder unit within the ZKTeco FBL700 product line. Designed to install directly between adjacent entry and exit corridors, the dual-sided cabinet allows security installers and system integrators to scale up multi-lane pedestrian checkpoints without duplicating separate master housings. Mechanically and dimensionally aligned with the FBL700 series envelope (1200 mm length, 300 mm width, and 980 mm height), each unit provides dual retracting barrier mechanisms that maintain standardized 600 mm pedestrian passage widths across all configured lanes.
Access Control Reader & Controller Interfacing
The turnstile control system integrates with access control systems via industry-standard dry contact relay inputs and Wiegand interfaces. The internal mainboard accepts rapid trigger signaling to open the acrylic wings within 0.8 seconds, achieving throughput rates up to 30 people per minute. The barrier housing and control architecture are compatible with the following authentication peripherals:
- RFID Card Readers: Supports surface or integrated mounting of ID and IC proximity card readers.
- Biometric Terminals: Interoperable with fingerprint verification devices and visible light facial recognition terminals.
- Optical Code Scanners: Compatible with stationary 1D/2D QR code scanners for mobile ticketing, temporary visitor passes, and credential barcodes.
- Centralized Access Controllers: Connects to third-party or OEM multi-door access control panels via input relays for coordinated directional locking.
Directional authorization is synchronized with the unit's integrated LED indicators. These visual displays link with internal logic boards to present green passage arrows or red restriction signals based on reader transaction validation.
Life-Safety and Emergency System Compatibility
The FBL 720 incorporates dedicated emergency mode integration to comply with facility life-safety requirements. An emergency signal input via dry contact allows fire alarm control panels (FACP) or remote master push-buttons to override normal access states instantly. Upon activation or during an AC power loss, the internal drive retracts the acrylic barrier wings fully into the SUS304 stainless steel housing, opening an unobstructed 600 mm pathway for pedestrian evacuation.
Electrical & Environmental Infrastructure Compatibility
The internal power supply accepts global utility standards, operating reliably on AC 100V–120V and AC 200V–240V at 50/60Hz. Safe installation requires a dedicated protective earth grounding connection bonded directly to the chassis to prevent electrical interference and personal hazard. Designed for an operating thermal envelope of -28°C to 60°C and 5% to 80% non-condensing relative humidity, the turnstile is compatible with indoor lobbies and sheltered outdoor environments where an overhead canopy protects the SPCC lid (with black baking paint), SUS304 stainless steel cabinet, and optical infrared sensors from direct rainfall.
