Semi-vertical turnichet Atlas series Buffalo model BFI 154 is a professional pedestrian access control solution designed for areas with intense traffic where safety, reliability and sustainability are critical. This industrial semi-vertical turnichet Combine robust stainless steel construction with a 4 axis rotor for precise control of the flow of people, being ideal for factories, construction sites, commercial buildings, public institutions and critical infrastructures.
By its compact design and optimised mechanism, Semi-vertical turnstiles Atlas BFI 154 provides a perfect balance between security, ergonomics and reduced total operating cost, easily integrating into modern RFID, biometric or QR access control systems.
General presentation of the semi-vertical turnstiles Atlas Buffalo BFI 154
Semi-vertical turnstiles are a professional category of pedestrian access control equipment designed for intensive use and industrial environments. Model BFI 154 of the Buffalo series is developed for applications where mechanical reliability and environmental resistance are priority.
Construction from stainless steel ensures corrosion resistance, vandalism and wear, and the rotor with 4 axis allows a smooth, controlled and safe passage of authorised persons.
Mechanical architecture and industrial design
Construction of stainless steel for intensive use
Turnichet is made entirely from Industrial stainless steel, which makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Inox confers protection against:
- Corosion
- temperature variations
- moisture
- Industrial dust
- light chemicals
Semi-vertical design allows optimal assembly in restricted spaces, without compromising security.
4 axis rotor for precise control
Rotor with 4 axis is optimized for controlled directional flow, allowing one person to pass per rotation. This architecture reduces the risk of logging and unauthorized access.
Functionality and modes of operation
Integible Access Control
The Atlas turnstiles BFI 154 can be integrated with:
- RFID reader
- MIFARE / HID cards
- biometrics (print, facial)
- QR code
- ERP systems and scoring software
- Wiegand, RS485 or TCP/IP interfaces
Working methods
- controlled bidirectional mode
- unidirectional mode
- free mode for evacuation
- automatic locking to fire alarm
Industrial safety and conformity
Protection for evacuation
The turnichet may be configured for automatic release in case of power failure or fire alarm, complying with the safety standards for evacuation.
Anti-tailgating control
The 4-axis rotor mechanism prevents multiple people from passing simultaneously and reduces access fraud.
Intense traffic performance in environments
BFI 154 is designed for continuous use in high traffic environments such as:
- Industrial plants and units
- Logistical deposits
- construction sites
- airports
- office buildings
- stadiums and sports centres
Optimised mechanical mechanism ensures an extended life span and reduced maintenance cost.
