GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS
When correctly installed and used , the 620, 640 and 642
automation systems ensure a high degree of safety.
A few simple rules should be followed to prevent accidental
problems.
- Do not linger under the beam.
- Do not linger near the automation system; do not allow
children or adults to linger near it; and do not leave
objects near it.
- Keep wireless control devices, or other activating devices
that might accidentally actuate the beam, out of the
reach of children.
- Do not allow children to play with the automation system.
- Do not impede the movement of the beam.
- Do not allow branches or bushes to interfere with the
movement of the beam.
- Ensure that the warning lamps are in always in working
order and visible.
- Do not attempt to actuate the beam manually without
having first unlocked it.
- In case of a malfunction, unlock the beam to allow
vehicles to pass, and call a qualified technician.
- If you have set the manual mode, before restoring
normal operation, disconnect the power supply.
- Do not modify the components of the automation system.
- Do not attempt to repair the automation system or to
perform any operation on it. Call qualified FAAC
technicians only.
- At least once every 6 months, have qualified personnel
check that the automation system, safety devices and
earth connection are in working order.
DESCRIPTION
The 620, 640 and 642 automation systems are ideal barriers
for controlling the access of vehicles to a passageway
that is up to 7 m wide and has a medium-to-high frequency
of transit.
The housing contains the operator, that consists of a hydraulic
power unit and two pistons. The latter actuate the rotation of
the beam by means of a rocker arm. A spring mounted on
one of the pistons balances the beam.
The beam consists of a white painted aluminium bar with
red reflectors to ensure good visibility even in the dark.
Barrier operation is controlled by an electronic control unit
mounted in an enclosure which assures adequate
protection against atmospheric agents and can be fitted
inside the housing.
The normal position of the beam is closed in a horizontal
position. When the electronic control unit receives an
opening command from the remote radio control or any
other control device, it activates the hydraulic system and
causes the beam to rotate upwards by 90° to the vertical
position and thereby allow access. If automatic operation
has been selected, the beam closes automatically after
the selected pause time.
If semiautomatic operation has been selected, a second
impulse must be sent to close the beam.
An open command given while the beam is closing
causes the beam to reverse direction of movement.
END-USER GUIDE
620 - 640 - 642 Automation Systems
A stop command (if available) stops movement at any
time.
For detailed information on barrier operation in the various
operating modes, contact the installation technician.
The barrier units have safety devices (photocells) that
prevent the beam from closing when they are darkened
by an obstacle. The 630 barrier unit is fitted as standard
with an anti-crushing safety device that limits the torque
transmitted to the beam.
The hydraulic system ensures that the beam can be
locked in any position.
The beam can then be opened manually only by using the
unlocking device.
The light flashes while the beam is moving.
MANUAL OPERATION
If the barrier has to be operated manually due to a power
failure or malfunction, use the unlocking device as follows.
The key provided can be triangular (standard) or
personalised (optional).
- Insert the standard key (fig. 1) or the personalised key (fig.
2) in the lock and turn anticlockwise by one revolution.
- Open or close the barrier manually.
RETURNING TO NORMAL OPERATION
To prevent an accidental impulse from activating the
barrier, turn off the system's electrical power supply before
returning to normal operation.
triangular key (standard):
- turn the key clockwise until it stops, then remove it.
personalised key (optional):
- turn the key clockwise until it stops.
- turn the key anticlockwise very slowly to the point where
it can be removed.
