Checking The Gate; Positioning Of Mountings - Aprimatic RAIDER 2500 Instrucciones Para La Instalacíon Mecánica, El Uso Y El Mantenimiento

2.2

Checking the gate

Before starting to assemble the kit, you should make a
complete check of the wing and ensure that it is in good
condition and is not faulty or damaged.
Check that the wing moves smoothly and that there is no
play or friction on the hinges.
Ensure that the wings are vertical (check with a plumb line)
(Fig.4) and perfectly steady at all rotation points.
Close the wings completely and check that the two wings
are fl ush against each other for their entire height.
Use a dynamometer to check that the opening or closing
gate force does not exceed 15 kg measured at the top of
the wing. (147 N) - Ref. EN 12604 - EN 12605.
If necessary repair or replace the hinges so that the wings
are easy to move by hand.
Ensure that the pillars give suffi cient support. Reinforce
the pillars where necessary.
Check whether the area where the front mounting is to be
fi tted on the gate requires strengthening. If necessary weld
a suitable support (profi le strip) on to the gate so that the
load is distributed evenly over a large area (Fig.5).
Carry out a full risk analysis for the system and the automatic
gate as per the Machinery Directive 98/37 EEC.
2.3

Positioning of mountings

Choose the most suitable height on the wing to position
the front operator mounting. The mounting should be located
as close as possible to the halfway height point on the wing
in a sturdy area subject to little or no stress.
Note: Do not install near the ground, cause the manual
emergency release must be easily usable.
Decide the lay-out of the operator mountings; measure
from the wing centre of rotation (Fig.6 and Tab.1).
!
Warning
Always CHECK that the installation
measurements and angles match those specifi ed for
the gate, pillars and hinge types you are using.
A and B: rear mounting installation distances - these must
be as equal as possible to ensure uniform peripheral speed
and are vital in terms of:
- the effective stroke (C) of the operator
- the peripheral speed of the wing
- the maximum wing opening angle (
Y: distance from the pillar edge to the axis of the gate hinge.
E: distance from the front mounting pivot to the axis of the
gate hinge.

The data in Tab.1 is for reference only and therefore not obligatory.
IMPORTANT If the distance between the pillar edge and the centre
of rotation is higher than the maximum Y value. shown in the table,
or if the wing is anchored to a continuous wall, you should create
a niche to support the operator (see section 2.5).

A+B = operating stroke (C) to obtain α = 90°. To exceed
this value, after identifying the best A and B values for
assembly, decrease B enough to achieve the required
opening angle. Attention should be given to Y to prevent
interference between the operator and pillar.
