by hand (fig. 9).
•
In the case of incorrect gate alignment (excessive side curving) which cannot
be corrected, place a few shims between the rack and gate in order to ensure
continuous centring of the rack with respect to the pinion (fig. 10).
DANGER - The welding operation is to be carried out by a competent
person who must be provided with all the personal protection equipment
required by the current safety standards.
18) PINION ADJUSTMENT
Having finished fixing the rack, the rack-pinion play needs to be adjusted
to approximately 2mm (fig.6): this is obtained by slackening the four M10
nuts under the gearmotor base by approximately 2mm, and then securing
the four upper nuts. Make sure that the rack and pinion are aligned and
centred (fig.10).
WARNING - Remember that the rack and pinion life strictly depends
on their correct meshing.
19) ELECTROMECHANICAL LIMITING DEVICES
The operation must be carried out with the emergency release activated
and the mains power supply disconnected. The runners which control the
limiting devices are to be positioned at both ends of the rack.
- Push the gate fully open by hand.
- Position the opening end-of-stroke runner (fig.11) so that it intercepts
the microswitch control lever and makes it trigger. Having identified the
correct position, tighten the runner screws.
- Push the gate fully closed by hand.
- Position the closing end-of-stroke runner (fig.11) so that it intercepts the
microswitch control lever and makes it trigger. Having identified the cor-
rect position, tighten the runner screws.
- The runners must lock the gate before this intercepts the mechanical
backstops placed on the track. The closing end-of-stroke runner adjustment
must be made in such a way as to leave a clearance of approximately 50mm
between the gate and the fixed swing leaf, as prescribed by the current
safety standards, otherwise fit an electric edge at least 50mm thick (fig.12).
20) GATE BACKSTOPS
DANGER - The gate must be provided with mechanical backstops,
both on opening and closing, in order prevent it from coming out of
the upper guide (fig.13); the backstops must be tightly secured to the
ground, a few centimetres beyond the electrical stop point.
21) ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION SETUP
Lay out the electrical installation as shown in fig.14 with reference to the CEI
64-8 and IEC364 provisions complying with the HD384 and other national
standards in force for electrical installation.
WARNING! For connection to the mains, use a multipolar cable having
a minimum cross section of 3x1.5 mm
standards. (For example, if the cable is not protected, it must be at least
equal to H07 RN-F, whereas if it is protected it must be at least equal
to H07 VV-F with a 3x1.5 sq mm
Connect the control and safety devices in compliance with the previously
mentioned technical installation standards. The cables (mains and auxiliary)
must be distinctly separated. Fig.14 shows the number of connections and
their cross sections for a length of approximately 100 metres; for greater
lengths, calculate the cross section for the true automation load.
The main automation components are (fig.14):
I
Type-approved adequately rated omnipolar circuit-breaker with at least
3 mm contact opening, provided with protection against overloads and
short circuits, suitable for cutting out automation from the mains. If
not already installed, place a type-approved omnipolar circuit-breaker
with a 0.03A threshold just before the automation system.
S
Key selector.
AL
Blinker with tuned antenna.
M
Actuator
P
Wall-mounted pushbutton panel.
Fte, Fre Pair of external photocells.
T
1-2-4 channel transmitter.
22) MOTOR TORQUE SETTING (SAFETY CLUTCH)
WARNING: Check that the impact force value measured at the
points established by the EN 12445 standard is lower than that
specified in the EN 12453 standard.
The setting must be carried out according to whatever is provided for by
the current safety standards. For this purpose, the motor torque needs to
be set in the following way:
•
Disconnect the mains power supply.
•
Remove the screws securing the gearmotor guard.
INSTALLATION MANUAL
and complying with the current
2
cross section).
2
•
Use the fixed key provided to lock the motor shaft (fig.17 - ref. "A"). Using
the release knob, screw the self-locking nut (fig.17 - ref. "D") to increase
the torque, or slacken it to decrease the torque.
•
Reconnect the power supply and, with the help of a torquemeter, check
that the motion stops at the mechanical resistance values set out by the
current standards.
•
Put the protection guard back on the gearmotor and secure it with its
screws.
DANGER - The torque regulator must be calibrated before the
automation system is made to be operational.
23) MANUAL RELEASE
The manual or emergency release is to be activated when a gate must
be opened by hand, and in all cases where the automation system fails to
operate or operates incorrectly. To carry out the emergency manoeuvre,
proceed as follows:
•
Insert the standard key into its appropriate seat (fig. 18) and rotate it
anticlockwise (90°), then rotate the release knob clockwise along its
entire stroke. This way the pinion is made to idle, and therefore allows
the gate to be opened by hand.
Warning: Do not push the gate leaf hard, but rather help it along its
entire stroke.
•
To reset motor-driven control, rotate the knob anticlockwise along its entire
stroke, and then rotate the standard key clockwise until it is held tight.
Keep the key in a safe place which is known to all the people concerned.
In the case where the release knob is supplied with a personalised key (fig.
18), proceed as follows:
•
Insert the personalised key into the lock, rotate the key anticlockwise by 90°.
•
Hold the release knob and rotate it clockwise (fig. 18) until it stops.
This way the pinion is made to idle, and therefore allows the gate to be
opened by hand.
•
Push the gate leaf by hand, helping it along its entire stroke.
The key cannot be taken out of the lock until the knob is brought back to
its initial position (motor-driven activation).
•
To reset motor-driven control, rotate the knob anticlockwise along its entire
stroke, move the key back to its locking position; then take the key out
and keep it in a safe place which is known to all the people concerned.
24) INSTALLATION CHECK
Before the automation device finally becomes operational, scrupulously
check the following conditions:
• Check that all the safety devices (limit microswitches, photocells, electric
edges etc) operate correctly.
• Check that the rack and pinion are correctly meshed (minimum play 2mm).
• Check that the pushing force of the gate is within the limits provided for
by the current standards.
• Check that the opening and closing end-of-stroke runners are correctly
positioned and tightly secured.
• Check the starting and stopping operations using the manual control.
• Check the starting and stopping operations using the remote radio control.
• Check the normal or customised operation logic.
25) AUTOMATION DEVICE USE
Since the automation device can be controlled both remotely and in sight,
by means of a radio control device or a button, all the safety devices must
be frequently checked in order to ensure their perfect efficiency.
WARNING! In the event of any safety device malfunction, request im-
mediate assistance from qualified personnel.Children must be kept at
a safe distance from the automation operation area.
26) AUTOMATION CONTROL
The use of this control device allows the gate to be opened and closed
automatically. There are different types of controls (manual, radio control,
magnetic card access etc.) depending on the installation requirements and
characteristics. For the various control systems, see the relevant instructions.
The installer undertakes to instruct the user about correct automa-
tion operation, also pointing out the actions to be taken in case of
emergency.
27) MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Before proceeding to any maintenance, disconnect the
mains power supply and, if the battery is fitted, one of its poles.
These are the check and maintenance operations to be carried out:
•
Check the condition of lubrication of the metal racks once a year.
•
Keep the sliding track always clean and free from debris.
•
Occasionally clean the photocell optical elements.
