Single Channel Full Height Turnstile for Controlled Pedestrian Access

The YD-R238Y Single Channel Full Height Turnstile is an intelligent pedestrian access control device designed for controlled entry and exit in security-sensitive and managed environments. Its full-height structure and rotating barrier provide a secure physical channel for single-person, single-passage access while supporting flexible one-way or two-way access management.

The YD-R238Y features a robust rotating structure with stainless steel tube and acrylic barrier components. Its adjustable passage width accommodates different site configurations, while the built-in industrial control mainboard supports integration with access control systems, consumption systems, electronic ticketing systems, biometric recognition systems, and other external management equipment.

Engineered for high durability and all-weather operation, the YD-R238Y offers long-term reliability and a robust protection rating for both indoor and outdoor installation. The automatic power-off release allows the barrier to rotate freely when power is disconnected, providing an emergency passage function.

Single-Channel Full-Height Access Control

The YD-R238Y is designed specifically for single-channel pedestrian management. Its full-height rotating barrier creates a controlled passage that helps prevent unauthorized access while allowing authorized personnel to enter or exit according to the configured access direction. This configuration is suitable for locations where pedestrian flow needs to be divided into clearly controlled individual passages rather than using open entrance areas.

120° Rotating Structure with Stainless Steel & Acrylic Barrier

The turnstile adopts a frame structure with precision stainless steel tubing and barrier components made from stainless steel tube and acrylic. The rotating structure provides a 120° movement angle for controlled passage. The combination of full-height construction and rotating barrier provides a physical access control solution for entrances requiring stronger separation between authorized and unauthorized pedestrian movement.

High-Durability Mechanical System

The YD-R238Y is equipped with a brushless motor / solenoid valve drive configuration and a built-in industrial control mainboard kit. The mechanical system is designed for more than 10 million operating cycles, supporting long-term use in frequently accessed locations. This high-cycle design makes the turnstile suitable for transportation facilities, industrial sites, commercial facilities, and other entrances with regular pedestrian traffic.

Flexible 530–700 mm Passage Width

The YD-R238Y supports a 530–700 mm passage width, providing flexibility for different installation layouts and pedestrian access requirements. Compared with a fixed-width single-channel configuration, the adjustable passage range allows project planners to select a suitable lane width according to the available installation space and access management requirements.

One-Way or Two-Way Pedestrian Control

The turnstile supports both single-direction and bi-directional access control. For two-way applications, the system can support card reading and controlled passage in both directions. Alternatively, one direction can be configured for card-based access while the opposite direction is prohibited. This provides greater flexibility for separating entry and exit flows according to site requirements.

Automatic Power-Off Release & Security Locking

When the turnstile is powered normally, the barrier operates according to the configured access control signals. When power is disconnected, the barrier can rotate freely, providing an emergency release function for evacuation. The anti-collision function also keeps the barrier locked when an authorized opening signal has not been received, helping prevent unauthorized passage.

Flexible System Integration

The YD-R238Y can be connected with various access management and identification systems, including:

• Access control systems
• Consumption management systems
• Electronic ticketing systems
• Biometric recognition systems
• Static electricity testing systems
• Other customized access control equipment

Optional system integration can be configured according to project requirements.

Industrial & Construction Sites – Suitable for factories, industrial plants, chemical facilities, and construction sites where personnel access needs to be controlled and monitored.

Commercial & Public Facilities – Can be installed at shopping malls, stadiums, schools, and other managed facilities to separate pedestrian flows and improve access management efficiency.

Q1: What makes the YD-R238Y different from a standard full-height turnstile?

A: The YD-R238Y is designed as a single-channel full-height turnstile with a 120° rotating structure and a 530–700 mm passage width. It combines a full-height physical barrier with flexible one-way or two-way access control, making it suitable for sites requiring controlled individual pedestrian passage.

Q2: What access control systems can be integrated with the YD-R238Y?

A: The YD-R238Y can be connected with access control systems, consumption systems, electronic ticketing systems, biometric recognition systems, static electricity testing systems, and other compatible external control equipment.

Q3: Can the YD-R238Y control entry and exit in both directions?

A: Yes. The YD-R238Y supports both one-way and bi-directional access control. It can be configured for two-way card reading and controlled passage, or for card-based access in one direction while prohibiting passage in the opposite direction.

Q4: What happens when the power is disconnected?

A: When power is disconnected, the turnstile enters its power-off release mode and the barrier can rotate freely. This provides an emergency passage function for evacuation requirements.

Q5: What is the operating life of the YD-R238Y?

A: The YD-R238Y has an MCBF of more than 10 million cycles, making it suitable for long-term operation in locations with regular pedestrian traffic.

Q6: Can the passage width or functions be customized?

A: The standard passage width is 530–700 mm. The turnstile also supports customized designs, alternative finishes, LED counting, audio and visual alarms, camera integration, thermostat integration, and customized control programs according to project requirements.
