Overview
The ZKTeco KR901S is an RFID access-control reader for presenting credentials to a compatible controller or standalone access device. It reads supported 125 kHz ID and 13.56 MHz IC credentials, allowing the installation to accommodate more than one card technology. The reader supplies identification data; it does not by itself establish the access permissions or provide the complete hardware needed to operate a door.
This model has no physical keypad and is documented for card identification. Choose it when a card-based reader is required without local password input. Its documented dimensions are 124 × 77 × 20.9 mm, and it is intended for mounting on a compatible single-gang or European gang box, or a suitable flat surface. That mechanical format is a useful selection difference within the KR900 range, especially when replacing a reader on an existing frame or back box. Match the mounting arrangement and the actual credential type before choosing the model.
This is the Wiegand-only listing. The manufacturer documents selectable W34 or W66 output, with W34 as the default; those formats need to match the receiving controller. A 9–12 V DC supply is listed for the family, together with LED status indications, a buzzer and a tamper switch. The enclosure is rated IP65, with indoor and outdoor use documented by the manufacturer. Installation still needs appropriate cabling, supply and controller integration. Specify the exact communication version and any separate controller, lock and power components as part of the complete access-control design.
Applications & Use Cases
- Controller-based credential entry: Present supported cards to a compatible access system over the selected reader interface. The controller must implement the access permissions and door operation.
- Mixed-frequency card migration: Use the documented ID and IC reading capability where an installation handles compatible credentials at both frequencies. Confirm how the receiving system interprets each credential.
Product FAQs
Will this reader operate a door without an access controller?
It is a reader for a compatible access-control system. Permissions, lock switching and the required external door hardware must be provided by that system.
Can I connect it to a third-party controller?
The manufacturer describes Wiegand integration with third-party access devices. Confirm the supported Wiegand format, wiring and controller configuration rather than assuming universal compatibility.
Does support for 13.56 MHz prove it accepts every existing smart card?
No. Frequency is only one requirement. Match the actual credential technology and identifier handling required by the receiving system.
Can users enter a PIN on this model?
No physical keypad is documented for this model. Select a keypad-equipped reader and compatible controller if password entry is required.
Can this Wiegand-only listing be assumed to support RS485?
No. Wiegand-only and Wiegand-plus-RS485 are separate communication options. Specify the required version before ordering.
