HECKING BEFORE THE INSTALLATION
!! THE GATE SHALL MOVE FRICTIONLESS !!
N.B.: Gate features must be uniformed with the standards and laws in
force. The door/gate can be automated only if it is in a good condition
and its conditions comply with the EN 12604 norm.
- The door/gate leaf does not have a pedestrian door. In the opposite
case it is necessary to take the appropriate steps, in accordance with
EN 12453 norm (for instance; by preventing the operation of the motor
when the pedestrian door is opened, by installing a safety microswitch
connected with the control panel).
- Besides the electrical or mechanical limit switches available on the
operators, there must be, on both ends of the installation, a fixed
mechanical stopper which stop the gate in the unlikely event of ill
functioning of limit swithces on the operators. For this reason the fixed
mechanical stopper must be of an adeguate size to withstand the static
and kinetic forces generated by the gate (12) (2).
- Gate columns shall have anti-derailment guides on their top (3), to
avoid the unintentional gate release.
N.B.: Remove mechanical stops like the one in fig. 3.
No mechanical stops shall be on top of the gate, since these mechanical
stops are not safe enough.
Parts to install meeting the EN 12453 standard

Skilled persons
(out of public area*)
with manned operation

(e.g. remote controldevice)
automatic
C and D, or E
* a typical example are those shutters which do not have access to any public way
A: C ommand button with manned operation (that is, operating as long as activated),
like code ACG2013
B: Key selector with manned operation, like code ACG1010
C: Adjustable power of the motor
D: S afety strips and/or other safety devices to keep thrust force within the limits of
EN12453 regulation - Appendix A.
E: P hotocells, like code ACG8026 (To apply every 60÷70 cm for all the height of the
column of the gate up to a maximum of 2,5 m - EN 12445 point 7.3.2.1)
R
ELEASE
To operated after the power supply to the motor has been
interrupted.
In order to work manually on the gate, you just need to insert the fitting
key and rotate it 3 times counterclockwise (4).
In order to carry out the manual operation of the gate leaf the followings
must be checked:
- That the gate is endowed with appropriate handles;
- That these appropriate handles are placed so to avoid safety risks for
the operator;
- That the physical effort necessary to move the gate leaf should not be
higher than 225 N, for doors/gates for private dwellings, and, 390N for
doors/gates for commercial and industrial sites ( values indicated in
5.3.5 of the EN 12453 norm) .
