5.2.3 Guards
Guards such as enclosures, covers, enclosing guards, fixed protective leaves (screens), shall be installed
taking into account the safety distances to prevent hazard zones being reached by upper and lower limbs
as specified in EN ISO 13857:2019, Table 1 and Table 5 and EN ISO 14120:2015.
Guards shall be designed and constructed so that:
a) persons cannot reach any danger point up to a height of 2,5 m above floor level;
b) they can only be removed or opened with the aid of a tool;
c) they do not cause additional hazards (e.g. shearing or drawing in).
5.2.4 Low energy mode of operation
The force required to manually prevent a stopped power operated pedestrian entrance control
equipment from moving any further - measured at the main closing edge in the direction of travel - shall
not exceed 67 N at any point of the movement.
The kinetic energy of power operated pedestrian entrance control equipment shall not exceed 1,69 J.
Full height turnstiles can reach a kinetic energy of 4,0 J under the condition that the minimum radius of
