Guide: Selecting the Right ESD Turnstile for Your EPA

June 28, 2026

ESD turnstiles are the first line of defense for any ESD Protected Area (EPA). Here's how to choose the right one:

Key Considerations

  1. Throughput: How many people pass through per minute? Tripod turnstiles handle 25-30/min; speed gates handle 40-60/min.
  2. Testing Requirements: Wrist strap only, or wrist strap + footwear? Integrated or external tester?
  3. Access Control: Card, fingerprint, facial recognition, or combination?
  4. Space Constraints: Measure your entrance width before selecting a model.
  5. Integration: Does it need to connect to your existing HR/access control system?

AcePlas offers turnstiles ranging from basic ESD test models to fully integrated smart gates with cloud data logging.
