General Safety Precautions - Aprimatic XT2500 Instrucciones Y Advertencias Para El Instalador

General safety precautions

Failure to respect the information given in this manual may cause personal injury or damage to the device.
This installation manual is intended for qualified personnel only.
APRIMATIC cannot be held responsible for any damage or injury due to improper use or any use other the intended usage indicated
in this manual.
Installation, electrical connections and adjustments must be performed by qualified personnel, in accordance with best practices
and in compliance with applicable regulations.
Read the instructions carefully before installing the product. Bad installation could be dangerous.
Before installing the product, make sure it is in perfect condition: if in doubt, do not use the equipment and contact qualified
personnel only.
Do not install the product in explosive areas and atmospheres: the presence of inflammable gas or fumes represents a serious
safety hazard.
Before installing the motorisation device, make all the necessary structural modifications to create safety clearance and to guard
or isolate all the crushing, shearing, trapping and general hazardous areas.
Make sure the existing structure is up to standard in terms of strength and stability.
APRIMATIC is not responsible for failure to observe Good Working Methods when building the frames to be motorised, or for any
deformation 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, system operating logic and the forces developed by the motorised door
or gate.
The safety devices must protect against crushing, cutting, trapping and general danger areas of the motorised door or gate.
The European standards EN 12453 and EN 12455 define the minimum safety requirements for the operation of automatic doors
and gates. In particular, these standards require the use of force limiting and safety devices (sensing ground plates, photocell
barriers, operator detection function etc.) intended to detect persons or objects in the operating area and prevent collisions in all
circumstances.
Where the safety of the installation is based on an impact force limiting system, it is necessary to verify that the characteristics and
performance of the automation system are compliant with the requisites of applicable standards and legislation.
The installer is required to measure impact forces and programme the control unit with appropriate speed and torque values to
ensure that the door or gate remains within the limits defined by the standards EN 12453 and EN 12455.
APRIMATIC declines all responsibility if component parts not compatible with safe and correct operation are fitted.
Display the signs required by law to identify hazardous areas.
Each installation must bear a visible indication of the data identifying the motorised door or gate.
An omnipolar disconnection switch with a contact opening distance of at least 3mm must be fitted on the mains supply.
Make sure that upline from the mains power supply there is a residual current circuit breaker that trips at no more than 0.03A
and overcurrent cutout upstream of the electrical system in accordance with best practices and in compliance with applicable
regulations.
When requested, connect the automation to an effective earthing system
During installation, maintenance and repair operations, cut off the power supply before opening the cover to access the electrical
parts.
The electronic parts must be handled using earthed antistatic conductive arms.
Only use original spare parts for repairing or replacing products.
The installer must supply all information concerning the automatic, manual and emergency operation of the motorised door or
gate, and must provide the user with the operating instructions.
The packaging materials (plastic, polystyrene, etc.) should not be discarded in the environment or left within reach of children, as
they are a potential source of danger.
Dispose of and recycle the packing components in accordance with the standards in force.
These instruction must be kept and forwarded to all possible future user of the system.
that complies with current safety standards.
