High-Throughput Pedestrian Access
Speed Gate
Optical swing barrier speed gates engineered for high-throughput pedestrian environments. Throughput up to 60 persons per minute with 24-pair IR sensor arrays, 304 stainless steel construction, and seamless integration with access control and building management systems.
Product Overview
High-speed optical turnstiles for premium access environments
FlowGate Pro speed gates are high-throughput optical turnstile barriers designed for environments where both security and user experience are critical. Deployed in corporate lobbies, metro stations, airports, convention centers, and premium office towers, these gates combine rapid passage with robust anti-tailgating detection.
Each speed gate lane features a 24-pair infrared sensor array that tracks pedestrian movement through the lane in real time. The optical swing barriers open and close smoothly with a response time under 0.3 seconds, enabling throughput of 45 to 60 persons per minute depending on lane width and credential verification speed.
The housing is constructed from 304 stainless steel with a brushed finish and tempered glass wing panels. Internal drive mechanisms use industrial-grade DC brushless motors rated for over 10 million operating cycles. All electronics are housed in IP54-rated enclosures with surge protection on all input and output circuits.

Technical Specifications
Materials, dimensions, and integration specifications
Detailed specifications for procurement evaluation and system integration planning.
Housing Material
304 stainless steel housing with brushed finish as standard. Top lid constructed from brushed stainless steel with integrated LED light strip for passage status indication. Wing panels in 10mm tempered glass with polished edges. Optional acrylic wing panels available. Surface finishes include hairline brushed, mirror-polished, and PVD-coated options.
Lane Dimensions
Standard lane width: 650mm (compact) to 900mm (wide). Cabinet dimensions (per side): 1400mm length x 180mm width x 1000mm height. Custom lane widths available from 550mm to 900mm per project specification. Multi-lane arrays supported with shared center cabinets to reduce footprint and cost.
Throughput & Speed
Up to 45-60 persons per minute in free-passage mode depending on lane width. Wing open time under 0.3 seconds. Wing close time under 0.5 seconds. Bidirectional passage with programmable lane direction. Configurable passage timeout from 2 to 60 seconds. Anti-tailgating detection via IR sensor array analysis.
Sensor Array
24-pair infrared sensor array per lane for full pedestrian tracking from entry to exit. Sensors positioned at multiple heights for comprehensive coverage. Real-time position tracking detects tailgating, wrong-way entry, and loitering within the lane. Sensor self-diagnosis with automatic fault reporting to the lane controller.
Integration Protocols
RS485 serial communication for local controller networking with up to 32 lanes per bus. TCP/IP Ethernet interface with REST API for building management system integration. Wiegand 26/34/37-bit input for third-party card readers and biometric terminals. Dry contact relay outputs for alarm, fire alarm interface, and status signaling. SDK available for custom software integration.
Power & Environmental
Input power: AC 110-240V, 50/60 Hz universal. Motor drive: DC 24V brushless with encoder feedback. Standby consumption under 30W per lane. Operating consumption under 100W per lane during passage. IP54 rated enclosure. Operating temperature: -15 degrees C to 55 degrees C. Humidity: 10% to 95% non-condensing.
