Function
record FlowControl is an automatic people screening system for retail stores and shops. The
system reliably counts all persons in both directions. If the pre-defined maximum number of
people is reached or exceeded, the entrance door is automatically deactivated to prevent fur-
ther intrusion of people. This enables active control and limitation of the flow of people into a
building.
Several door configurations (multiple door solution) are also possible. A surface-mounted LED
strip indicates the availability of the door for people.
Advantages:
– Savings in security and personnel costs
– Automatic stop of the flow of people when the predefined maximum number of people is reached
– Active control of the entrance door only in entry direction (escape direction not affected)
– Manually adjustable counter values (+ / -) and intuitive operation
– Only 2-4 hours installation work
– Clear signalisation with green/red LED strips (IP54), safe against vandalism
