3.1
Security and Safety
The quick opening and closing speed of the gate means it can meet the demand of large
pedestrian flow whilst effectively monitoring unauthorised users and providing safety of
passage. For more information please see detection sensors.
3.1.1
Adjustable safety and security level
The control system allows the safety and security level of the lane to be adjusted. The
low-security mode gives priority to safety and the high-security mode gives priority to security.
The gates are normally supplied configured in "minimum risk" mode for
users. Any modification of parameters must be done knowingly by
manufactures trained personnel.
3.1.2
Safety in the opening and closing cycle
The closing and closing cycle of a paddle gate is usually regarded as one of the major hazards.
Therefore, the PG300 is fitted with SIXTEEN pairs of sensors as standard to help prevent the
gate hitting user and obstacles during the closing cycle.
Anyone using the gates MUST be trained in their correct use. Failure to
provide such training may result in serious accidents or injuries.
