1 Overview
1.1 Introduction
ZK-D1090 metal-detector is a walk-through metal-detector that is used for security
screening at access points in the prisons, courthouses, and train stations.
Metal-detectors are highly sensitive to magnetic metals and have a high detection
capability, with less ability to detect non-magnetic metals. They are used to detect
the concealed metal weapons on a person’s body. It offers high-speed detection
capability. It can detect large metal objects like knives and guns. Its screening
capacity is very large when compared to hand-held metal detectors.
Feature
Up to 9 detection zones and 500 sensitivity levels allow precise contraband
detection.
Accurate detection of a wide range of contrabands.
Clear threat indication with synchronous sound alert and LED indicator.
Displays the number of pedestrians passed and alarm count accurately.
Automatic setting of sensitivity and channel.
Simple installation and use.

3 Installation Setup
3.1 Safety Precautions
• Install the detector in a stable and smooth area. Make sure that the
detector is installed firmly in the selected area.
• It can be used for both indoor and outdoor purposes. If used outdoor,
cover it with a canopy to protect against rain.
• Before installation, make sure the left and right door panels are placed at
the corresponding location. Avoid high temperatures and wet
environments.
• Wait for 1 minute for the self-diagnosis of the detector when it starts. Do
not touch the detector during a security check to avoid false alarm.
• Install the detector away from radio-frequency devices to avoid
interference. Make sure that there is no large metal object or strong
magnetic field around the detector for at least 2 meters.
• Do not hit the detector hardly, as it may cause false alarms.
• Do not disassemble the unit without the guidance of a professional
technician.
• Each device has a warranty card, with which users can have their devices
maintained or repaired free of charge within the warranty period.
3.2 Instructions to Pedestrians
• A line must be drawn at 50cm away from the detector. The pedestrians
must pass through the detector one-by-one.
• Pedestrians should line up one-by-one to ensure the smooth operation of
the detector.
• Pedestrians should walk at a normal speed. They must not intentionally
form a crowd, rush, walk slowly, or crush the door panel.
• Before passing through the metal detector, the pedestrians must remove
all the carried metal objects (such as keys, mobile phone, watch, coins, etc.),

ZK-D1090 User Manual
Copyright©2025 ZKTECO CO., LTD. All rights reserved.
Page | 14
and place it on the security chute or a table, and pick it up after the security
check.
• If the detector alarms when someone passes through, that means there
is/are some metal object(s) hidden in the body. The security guard can use
a hand-held metal detector to accurately detect the hidden position
according to the alarm zones.
3.3 Installation Site
The following section describes the requirements of the installation environment.
3.3.1 Stationary Metallic Items
The detector must be installed away at 50cm from the stationary metallic items
such as aluminum alloy/stainless-steel windows, doors, etc. to prevent false alarms
and affecting the sensitivity of the detector.
3.3.2 Portable Metallic Items
The portable metallic objects must be kept away at 2 meters from the detector to
avoid false alarms.
3.3.3 Floor Vibration
The installation floor must be flat and fixed to avoid false alarm from the movement
of the people walking through the detector.
3.3.4 Electromagnetic Radiation and Interference
Since the detector uses Bilateral receiver technology, the detector must be installed
away at a distance of at least 1 meter from the sources of electromagnetic radiation
or electromagnetic interference. The parameters that define the distance are
determined by the installation environment and the parameters vary for different
installation environments.
The sources of electromagnetic radiation and electromagnetic interference are
given below:

ZK-D1090 User Manual

Page | 15
Electrical Control Box, Radiofrequency equipment, Interphone, High Power Motor,
Power Transformer, Ac Power Lines, Thyristor Control Circuit (High Power Switching
Power Supply, Inverter Welder), Engine, Motor, etc.
3.3.5 Parallel Installation
When two detectors are installed parallel to each other, the distance between two
detectors must be greater than 50cm. When three detectors are installed parallel to
each other, the distance between each detector must be greater than 80cm. They
must operate at a different frequency to avoid interference. The distance varies
according to the actual working environment, it is not recommended to mount
three detectors in parallel, the frequency can be adjusted according to the
environment.
3.4 Installation Steps
Make sure that the device is installed as per the following installation instructions. If
you want to open the chassis, you should contact the agent for permission.
Otherwise, you will bear any consequence resulting from your actions.

6 Detection Zones
The detector can detect a wide range of threat objects/weapons composed of
magnetic, non-magnetic metals and alloys.
Chassis Panel: The screen shows the number of people passing the detector and
the number of alarms.
Alarm Zones:
3-zone Mode 6-zone Mode 9-zone Mode
There are two unique sets of precise positioning LEDs evenly distributed on the
door panels. If the detected metal object reaches or exceeds the preset value, the
red LED glows and an alarm will be triggered. If there are multiple alarm targets, the
LED of each target location will glow with alarm.

Infrared Sensor
After connecting the power supply, the metal detector starts to work. When there is
no person or object passes through the detector, the infrared sensors can
effectively stop alarming to avoid false alarms. It also helps to maintain an accurate
count of pedestrians and alarms.
6.1 Adjustment of Detection Zone’s Sensitivity
1. The device must be in a stable position to achieve the best detection effect
(refer Installation Site
). To check whether the device is in a stable state,
perform the following steps:
a) Power on the detector and check whether it is not shaking after one
minute.
b) The device should not alarm when the testing person did not carry any
metal items while walking through the detector.
2. You can exclude the small portable metal objects such as rings, key, belt
buckle, shoes, and so on, by following the steps given below:
a) Choose a small metal as a sample. Increase the sensitivity, so that when
the testing person carries the sample and pass through the detector, and
it would alarm.
b) Decrease the sensitivity a little, carry the sample, and pass through the
detector again. If it still alarms, once again reduce the sensitivity, until the
device does not alarm when the sample is passed through.
Note: If you want to decrease the sensitivity in a certain zone, you must only adjust
the sensitivity of the relative zone. After implementing the above adjustments, the
metal smaller than the sample will not alarm, but the metal objects bigger than the
sample can be detected accurately.

Troubleshooting
What to do if the Sensor could not count?
a) Check whether the probe cables are connected firmly with the door panels.
b) Check whether there is any infrared interference beside the device, such as

a) If the device gives false alarms frequently after installation, perform the
following steps:
• Firstly, check the installation environment. Make sure there are no movable

there is any metal object, try to place the device away from the large metal
objects.

movements.

of all zones.
