ZKTeco ZK-D2180 Walk-Through Metal Detector / DFMD (18 Zones)

Overview

The ZKTeco ZK-D2180 is a walk-through metal detector, also called a door frame metal detector (DFMD), for screening people at an entrance. With 18 detection zones, the archway shows the guard roughly where on the body the metal is, which makes the follow-up check with a hand-held detector much quicker than a single-zone gate allows. It suits building lobbies, factory and warehouse exits, places of worship, event venues, courts and examination halls.

Is it right for you?

• It suits an entrance where guards need to know where metal is carried, not just that it is present.
• Each zone’s sensitivity can be set separately, so it can screen for weapons without alarming on belts, keys and coins.
• It can hold a turnstile lane shut until a person is cleared, which suits a controlled entrance.
• If you only need a yes or no alarm, a single-zone model such as the ZK-D1010L is the alternative.

Key features

• 18 detection zones, each with 256 adjustable sensitivity levels.
• Working frequency 5.7 to 9.6 kHz.
• 85 dB alarm with sound and LED indication at the triggered zone at the same time.
• People counting and alarm counting, giving footfall and alarm-rate figures for security reporting.
• LCD display, with remote control and app connection for set-up.
• TCP/IP communication and turnstile linkage.
• Waterproof base and fire-retardant materials; rated -20 to 55 °C and under 95% non-condensing humidity.
• 100 to 240 V AC input (12 V DC 1.5 A internally), 18 W.

What else you need

A mains socket (100 to 240 V AC) near the archway. For remote control, a network connection. A hand-held metal detector for follow-up checks after an alarm, and a turnstile if you want the lane held shut on alarm.

Installation

A security equipment installer should fit and calibrate it. Sensitivity calibration depends on what you need to detect and on nearby metal and electrical interference, so a survey of the entrance is recommended. Ask us for a quote if you also need installation and calibration.

Before you buy

• Sensitivity needs calibrating on site; plan a survey of the entrance.
• Keep it away from large moving metal objects and sources of electrical interference.
• The features above are from the ZK-D2180 standard datasheet. ZKTeco does not publish a separate datasheet for the D2180L version, so confirm the display, app connection, TCP/IP and turnstile linkage for D2180L before ordering.
