Turnstiles tripods

Ingress protection
Throughput, single passage

Tripod turnstiles have three arms on a rotating hub and let one person through after access control grants entry, counting every passage. Unlike full-height models, a tripod does not block the passage to head height, so it needs less floor space. This section lists servo-driven TiSO models.

How to choose a tripod turnstile

  • Throughput: single-lane models handle 25 people/min in single-passage mode and 60 in free-passage mode, Twin dual-lane versions 50 and 120 people/min across both lanes.
  • Passage width: 600 mm on most models, 560 mm on Skull Bus.
  • Mounting: ONYX-XS and Skull-M mount on the wall with no post — for tight spaces. Centurion, Bastion, Twix-M Twin and Galaxy-M are compatible with a mobile platform.
  • Dimensions: cabinet height from 616 mm on Skull-M to 1800 mm on ONYX-XL.
  • Operating conditions: +1 or +5 to +40 °C, IP41; Centurion, Bastion, Skull and Twix up to IP54 on request.
  • Finish: brushed AISI 304 stainless steel as standard; AISI 316 or RAL colours on order.

FAQ

How much does a tripod turnstile cost?

The price depends on the series, number of lanes, finish and built-in equipment. Each model's price is shown on its page; we quote the installed package for your project.

Can a tripod turnstile be installed outdoors?

Yes, with a limitation. The outdoor version is an option on Skull-M, Twix-M and Twix All-in-One-M, and the Twix-M Twin cabinet can be adapted for outdoor use. The rated operating temperature is +1 °C to +40 °C, so conditions are agreed for each site; for frost we will pick a turnstile from another section.

What drive do these tripods use?

All models in this section are servo-driven, most of them by Triservo-M. Two stop catches hold the arms: electromagnetic on ONYX-S, ONYX-M and ONYX-XL, electromechanical on Centurion, Bastion, Skull, Twix and Galaxy.

What happens to the turnstile in a fire alarm?

The passage is cleared — this is the anti-panic function. It is triggered manually or by the access control or fire alarm system. On most models the arms drop, and after the alarm the mechanism returns to working position by itself.
