2 Product description
2.1 Function and design of this door
The model Re-Coil-Away is a vertically opening door.
2.1.1 Principle
The door assembly consists of left and right side frames and a header assembly. The header
assembly contains the curtain and the drive system already attached. The bottom beam is
already attached to the curtain. Door comes standard with a balance system.
The Re-Coil-Away door rolls the curtain material directly on and off a barrel assembly. The
edges of this curtain are contained within the side frames via a patented windlok system
while the curtain is being rolled or unrolled off the barrel. These side frames guide the curtain
also and provide a seal.
The bottom beam, located on the bottom of the curtain, contains a continuously monitored
pneumatic safety edge. Activation of this device will stop the door and cause the door to
reverse to a fully open position. The door also has a reversing photocell attached to the side
frames of the door.
2.1.2 Door Speeds
The maximum opening speed depends on the size of the door and sprocket size.

2.2 Electric safety features
Before each downward movement an internal test of the photocells and the control unit is
performed (Safety classification 2).
If a malfunction has been acknowledged, the drive power
is interrupted (ACS-50 Control Panel) and the door will not operate to close the door.
