General Safety Precautions; Machinery Directive - DITEC Luxo3B Manual Para La Instalacion Y La Manutencion

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

GB
This installation manual is intended for professionally
competent personnel only.
Installation, electrical connections and adjustments must be
performed in accordance with Good Working Methods and in
compliance with applicable regulations.
Before installing the product, carefully read the instructions. Bad
installation could be hazardous.
The packaging materials (plastic, polystyrene, etc.) should not
be discarded in the environment or left within reach of children,
as these are a potential source of hazard.
Before installing the product, make sure it is in perfect condi-
tion.
Do not install the product in an explosive environment and at-
mosphere: gas or inflammable fumes are a serious hazard risk.
Before installing the motors, make all structural changes relat-
ing to safety clearances and protection or segregation of all
areas where there is risk of being crushed, cut or dragged, and
danger areas in general.
Make sure the existing structure is up to standard in terms of
strength and stability.
The motor manufacturer is not responsible for failure to use
Good Working Methods in building the frames to be motorised
or for any deformation occurring during use.
The safety devices (photocells, safety edges, emergency stops,
etc.) must be installed taking into account: applicable laws and
directives, Good Working Methods, installation premises, sys-
tem operating logic and the forces developed by the motorised
door or gate.
The safety devices must protect any areas where the risk exists
of being crushed, cut or gragged, or where there are any other
risks generated by the motorised door or gate. Apply hazard
area notices required by applicable regulations.
Each installation must clearly show the identification details of
the motorised door or gate.
Before making power connections, make sure the plate
details correspond to those of the power mains.
Fit an omnipolar disconnection switch with a contact opening
gap of at least 3 mm. Make sure an adequate residual current
circuit breaker and overcurrent cutout are fitted upstream of the
electrical system.
When necessary, connect the motorised door or gate to a reli-
able earth system made in accordance with applicable safety
regulations. During installation, maintenance and repair, inter-
rupt the power supply before opening the lid to access the elec-
trical parts.
To handle electronic parts, wear earthed antistatic con-
ductive bracelets.
The motor manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event
of component parts being fitted that are not compatible with the
safe an correct operation.
For repairs or replacements of products only original spare parts
must be used.
The installer shall provide all information relating to automatic,
manual and emergency operation of the motorised door or gate,
and provide the user with operating instructions.

MACHINERY DIRECTIVE

Pursuant to Machinery Directive (98/37/EC) the installer who
motorises a door or gate has the same obligations as the manu-
facturer of machinery and as such must:
- prepare the technical file which must contain the documents
indicated in Annex V of the Machinery Directive; (The techni-
LUXO - IP1684
cal file must be kept and placed at the disposal of competent
national authorities for at least ten years from the date of
manufacture of the motorised door);
- draft the EC declaration of conformity in accordance with An-
nex II-A of the Machinery Directive and deliver it to the cus-
tomer;
- affix the CE marking on the power operated door in accord-
ance with point 1.7.3 of Annex I of the Machinery Directive.

APPLICATIONS
Service class: 4 (minimum 100 cycles a day for 10 years or
200 cycles a day for 5 years)
Use: INTENSIVE (For vehicle or pedestrian accesses to large
condominiums, industrial or commercial complexes and parking
lots with very frequent use).
- The operating performance specifications refer to the
recommended weight (about 2/3 of maximum allowed
weight). Use with maximum allowed weight could reduce
the above performance specifications in tecnhical data.
- The service class, operating times and number of consecu-
tive cycles are merely approximate. These have been
statistically determined in average conditions of use and are
not certain for each single case. They refer to the period
when the product operates without the need for special
maintenance.
- Each automatic entrance features variable factors such as:
friction, balancing and environmental conditions that can
substantially change both the duration and operating quality
of the automatic entrance or part of its components (including
automatic system). It is up to the installer to adopt adequate
safety coefficients for each single installation.
DECLARATION BY THE MANUFACTURER
(Directive 98/37/EC, Annex II, sub B)
Manufacturer: DITEC S.p.A.
Address: via Mons. Banfi, 3 - 21042 Caronno
Pertusella (VA) - ITALY
Herewith declares that the electromechanical automatic sys-
tem series LUXO
- is intended to be incorpored into machinery or to be as-
sembled with other machinery to constitute machinery
convered by Directive 98/37/EC;
- is in conformity with the provisions of the following other
EEC directives:
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 89/336/EEC;
Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC;
and furthermore declares that it is not allowed to put the ma-
chinery into service until the machinery into which it is to be
incorporated or of which it is to be a component has been found
and declared to be in conformity with the provisions of Direc-
tive 98/37/EC and with national implementing legislation.
