Cabinet Footprint, Weight, and Lane Spacing
The ZKTeco FBL300 single lane flap barrier turnstile system requires structural floor planning to accommodate its physical dimensions of 1400 mm in length, 300 mm in width, and 980 mm in height. Each cabinet unit has a net weight of 70 kg, constructed with a heavy-duty SUS304 stainless steel casework and a steel lid. When planning single or multi-lane pedestrian access corridors, installers must account for the standard 570 mm lane width between barrier cabinets to ensure smooth passage.
The outer housing features an all-smooth exterior finish without exposed screws, demanding precision floor anchoring to maintain structural stability and alignment across adjacent turnstile lanes.
Environmental Operating Conditions
Site selection for the ZKTeco FBL300 must comply with the manufacturer's rated environmental thresholds:
- Operating Environment: Indoor or sheltered outdoor installations only (direct exposure to rain or unprotected outdoor elements must be avoided).
- Operating Temperature Range: -20°C to 70°C.
- Operating Humidity: 5% to 95% relative humidity (strictly non-condensing).
- Throughput Capacity: Designed to support high-traffic pedestrian volume up to 35 people per minute with a Mean Cycles Between Failures (MCBF) rating of 2 million cycles.
Electrical Service & Power Supply Routing
The FBL300 flap barrier requires an alternating current electrical connection supporting either AC 100V–120V or AC 200V–240V at 50/60 Hz single-phase power. Primary power conduits should be routed through dedicated bottom subfloor cutouts into the SUS304 stainless steel chassis to conceal all electrical wiring and uphold the seamless, screw-free exterior profile.
Control Board LCD Configuration & Commissioning
System configuration, timing parameters, and operational adjustments are managed directly via the onboard LCD display mounted on the main flap barrier control board. System engineers can navigate the LCD interface to commission passage modes, verify logic inputs, and diagnose communication lines during initial site setup without requiring external diagnostic consoles.
Sensor Alignment and Access Control Integration
Proper commissioning involves verifying the alignment of the 5 pairs of integrated infrared sensors positioned along the passage path. These infrared sensor arrays monitor pedestrian transit, tailgating, and obstruction events to trigger the acrylic retracting flap mechanisms safely.
The cabinet accommodates access reader hardware, supporting integration with RFID proximity card readers and biometric fingerprint access control readers to control directional pedestrian clearance at a Medium security level rating.
Emergency Mode and Power-Outage Setup
The FBL300 features integrated support for emergency override modes and LED directional status indicators. For life-safety and emergency egress compliance, the acrylic flap barriers utilize a retracting movement mechanism. In the event of a power outage, the turnstile barriers retract automatically into the housing when a compatible backup battery (they are not included) is connected to the control assembly, allowing continuous unhindered pedestrian evacuation.
