and

 

a

 

newly

(Genesis

and

  

u lizes

 

a

 

new

 

Limit/Posi on

 

Sensor

 

(LPS)

 

to

The

 

frame

 

for

 

this

 

model

 

is

 

2”

 

taller

 

than

 

the

 

previous

between

 

the

and

 

the

of

 

the

cab-

inet

 

when

 

the

VPG2490 BELTS

 

The

 

new

 

90°

 

gearmotor

 

is

 

a

 

½

 

horse

 

power

 

motor

 

with

 

a

 

non-back

 

drivable

 

right-angle

 

drive

 

gearbox,

 

and

 

a

 

redesigned

 

sheave

 

and

 

belt

 

con

fi

gura on.

 

The

 

new

 

con

fi

gura on

 

will

 

provide

 

be er

 

control

 

of

 

the

 

gate

 

mo-

on

 

and

 

will

 

prevent

 

the

 

gate

 

from

 

"OVERRUNNING"

 

the

 

motor.

 

There

 

will

 

be

 

2

 

drive

 

con

fi

gura ons

 

used.

 

The

 

standard

 

speed

 

will

 

open

 

or

 

close

 

the

 

gate

 

in

 

8

 

to

 

10

 

seconds,

 

including

 

slowdown.

 

For

 

larger

 

or

 

extra

 

heavy

 

gates

 

the

 

speed

 

will

 

be

 

reduced

 

slightly

 

to

 

prevent

 

excessive

 

wear

 

to

 

the

 

drive

 

mechanism

 

and

 

to

 

allow

 

for

 

safer

 

control

 

of

 

gate

 

mo on.

 

These

 

systems

 

will

 

open

 

or

 

close

 

in

 

13

 

to

 

15

 

seconds,

 

including

 

slow-

down.

 

 

Adjustments

 

to

 

the

 

drive

 

belts

 

are

 

a

 

cri cal

 

part

 

of

 

the

 

gate

 

operator

 

func on.

 

With

 

the

 

introduc on

 

of

 

the

 

½

 

horse

 

power

 

right

 

angle

 

drive

 

gearmotor,

 

the

 

'MOTOR'

 

drive

 

belts

 

have

 

been

 

changed

 

to

 

"A"

 

sec on

 

belts.

 

This

 

now

 

requires

 

3

 

belts

 

to

 

handle

 

the

 

torque.

 

Another

 

reason

 

for

 

the

 

size

 

change

 

from

 

"B"

 

to

 

"A"

 

is

 

it

 

allows

 

us

 

to

 

get

 

be er

 

grip

 

with

 

less

 

belt

 

wear

 

on

 

the

 

small

 

motor

 

drive

 

sheave.

 

The

 

'GATE'

 

drive

 

belts

 

will

 

s ll

 

be

 

the

 

"B"

 

sec on

 

belt.

 

This

 

will

 

con nue

 

to

 

be

 

a

 

"Banded"

 

style

 

belt

 

but

 

will

 

be

 

the

 

"Notched"

 

belt

 

for

 

be er

 

torque

 

and

 

grip.
