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.
• 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 operation
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 allow.
• Installation must be carried out using the safety devices and controls
prescribed by the EN 12978 Standard.
2) GENERAL OUTLINE
Electromechanical piston designed to automate residential gates.
The gearmotor keeps the gate locked on closing and on opening, without
needing an electric lock for leaves up to 3 m long. For leaves ranging between
3m and 5m long, the electric lock becomes indispensable.
The operator is provided with an electronic torque limiter. It must be controlled
by an electronic control panel provided with torque setting.
The end-of-stroke operation is regulated by two electromechanical limit
devices.
The operator is provided with an obstacle detection system complying with
EN12453 and EN 12445 standards.
The following optional accessories are available on request:
- Buffer battery kit mod. PHOBOS-BT BAT
Allows operation of the automation even when there is no mains power
supply for a short period of time.

4) INSTALLATION OF THE ACTUATOR
4.1) Preliminary checks
Check that:
• The gate structure is sufficiently sturdy.
• Also make sure that the actuator pushes against the leaf reinforced sec-
tion.
• The leaves move manually and without effort all along their stroke.
• The door stop plates are fitted at the end of both closing and opening
strokes.
• If the gate has not been recently installed, check the wear condition of all
components.
• Repair or replace faulty or worn parts.
The automation reliability and safety are directly influenced by the state
of the gate structure.
The diagram in fig. 2 should be used as a reference for installation and
consult the table for the distances in mounting the gate post.
The diagram in fig. 2 uses the following legend:
P Gate post rear fastening bracket
F Front leaf fastening bracket
a-b “P” bracket installation value
C Distance between fixing points (C = 805 mm)
D Gate length
X Distance from gate axis to the edge of the post
Z Always over 45 mm (b - X)
kg max. weight of leaf
α
° leaf opening in degrees
4.2) How to read the installation distance tables
Select “a” and “b” according to the angle in degrees
α
° that the gate has
to open.
If there is too large a difference between “a” and “b”, the leaf will not travel
smoothly and the pushing or pulling force will fluctuate during its stroke.
To respect the opening speed and ensure the controller operates correctly,
it is best to keep the difference between “a” and “b” as low as possible.
When “a” and “b” are at their maximum, the piston develops the maximum
force.
