BFT ELI-250, Installation And User Manual

Page: 12 / 32

Thank you for buying this product, our company is sure that you will be more
than satisfied with the performance of the product. This product is supplied
with a “
Warnings” leaflet and an “Instruction manual”. These should both
be read carefully as they provide important information about safety, instal-
lation, operation and maintenance. This product complies with recognised
technical standards and safety regulations. We declare that this product is in
conformity with the following European Directives: 89/336/EEC, 73/23/EEC,
98/37/EEC, 99/05/EEC
(and subsequent amendments).
WARNINGS: Any assistance required on automation components must
be carried out by a qualified technician (installer).
1) GENERAL OUTLINE
The
ELI-250 electromechanical actuator is the ideal solution for underground
hinge-pivot installation. The actuator consists of a perfectly sealed single-
block reduction gear. The under hinge-pivot position maintains the aesthetic
appearance of the gate and practically hides the automation system.
Once the bearing case is installed, the gate can be operated even without
fitting the actuator which can be inserted later. When maintenance is requi-
red, this type of case allows the actuator to be taken out without removing
the gate leaf. The
ELI-250 actuator can be fitted to any type of swing gate
which meets the values shown in the ” Technical Specifications” table. The
pushing force is set on the control unit (see specific manual).
The end-of-stroke operation is adjusted by mechanical stops located inside
the foundation case.
CAUTION! The actuator mod. ELI-250 is not provided with mechanical
torque adjustment. It is compulsory to use a control board of the same
manufacturer, according to the basic safety requirements of directives
89/336/EEC, 73/23/EEC, 98/37/EEC, 99/05/EEC
and provided with adequate
electric torque adjustment.

reference.
• This product was exclusively designed and manufactured for the use
specified in the present documentation. Any other use not specified in
this documentation could damage the product and be dangerous.
• The Company declines all responsibility for any consequences resulting
from improper use of the product, or use which is different from that
expected and specified in the present documentation.
• Do not install the product in explosive atmosphere.
• The construction components of this product must comply with the following
European Directives: 89/336/EEC, 73/23/EEC, 98/37/EEC, 99/05/EEC
and subsequent amendments. As for all non-EEC countries, the above-
mentioned standards as well as the current national standards should
be respected in order to achieve a good safety level.
• The Company declines all responsibility for any consequences resulting
from failure to observe Good Technical Practice when constructing closing
structures (door, gates etc.), as well as from any deformation which might
occur during use.
• The installation must comply with the provisions set out by the following
European Directives: 89/336/EEC, 73/23/EEC, 98/37/EEC, 99/05/EEC
and subsequent amendments.
• Disconnect the electrical power supply before carrying out any work on
the installation. Also disconnect any buffer batteries, if fitted.
• Fit an omnipolar or magnetothermal switch on the mains power supply,
having a contact opening distance equal to or greater than 3,5 mm.
• Check that a differential switch with a 0.03A threshold is fitted just before
the power supply mains.
• Check that earthing is carried out correctly: connect all metal parts for
closure (doors, gates etc.) and all system components provided with an
earth terminal.
• Fit all the safety devices (photocells, electric edges etc.) which are needed
to protect the area from any danger caused by squashing, conveying and
shearing, according to and in compliance with the applicable directives
and technical standards.
• Position at least one luminous signal indication device (blinker) where it
can be easily seen, and fix a Warning sign to the structure.
• The Company declines all responsibility with respect to the automation
safety and correct operation when other manufacturers’ components are
used.
• Only use original parts for any maintenance or repair operation.
• Do not modify the automation components, unless explicitly authorised
by the company.
• Instruct the product user about the control systems provided and the
manual opening operation in case of emergency.
• Do not allow persons or children to remain in the automation ope-
ration area.
• Keep radio control or other control devices out of children’s reach, in
order to avoid unintentional automation activation.
• The user must avoid any attempt to carry out work or repair on the automa-
tion system, and always request the assistance of qualified personnel.
• Anything which is not expressly provided for in the present instructions,
is not allowed.
3) MAIN AUTOMATION PARTS
Sealed mechanical actuator (fig.1) including:
a) Single-phase 2-pole motor protected by thermal circuit-breaker.
b) Double worm-screw reduction gear with output gear in special alu-
minium alloy.
c) Output lever and mechanical stops.
d) Bearing foundation case (ready for automation).
e) Series of levers for gate movement.
f) Release unit with key.
CAUTION! The actuator can be fitted either on the left or on the right,
which are conventionally defined by looking at the gate from the inside
(opening direction).

5) ACTUATOR INSTALLATION
5.1) Preliminary checks
Check that:
• The upper hinge is in good condition and possibly adjustable.
• A hole can be dug for burying the case under the hinge.
• The ”FA” stop plates of the leaves are installed (fig.8).
• Repair or replace the faulty or worn parts of the structures to be subjected
to movement.
An exploded view of the installation is shown in fig.1.
The automation reliability and safety are directly influenced by the
state of the gate structure.
5.2) The main automation components are (Fig.2):
I)
Type-approved adequately rated omnipolar circuit breaker with at least
3,5 mm contact opening, provided with protection against overloads
and short circuits, suitable for cutting out automation from the mains.
Place, if not al ready installed, a type-approved differential switch with
a 0.03A threshold just before the automation system.
Qr) Control panel and built-in receiver.
