Auto Gate System
EL-EX5A
Installation and adjustment
The gate operator and the sliding gates should be installed according to Fig. 4, and controlled by button
controller. To ensure the safety, it is highly recommended to install a limit device to prevent the gate sliding out
of the rails. The rails must be installed horizontally and straight.
Installation of the gate operator
The foundation of the gate operator is shown in Fig. 5 and the position between the gate operator and the
sliding gate is shown in Fig. 6. When the cements solidified, put the gate operator on the base plate and press
it in the direction as shown in Fig. 6. Adjust it to the proper position and fix it with screws and nuts.
Installation of racks:
- Weld the fixing shaft (inside the racks package) to the gate;
- Fix the racks to the fixing shaft with screws and adjust the position of the racks so that the racks can be
engaged correctly with gear and the allowance is 1 mm.
- Install the magnetic switch as shown in Fig. 6 and 7. A magnetic sensitive switch is installed to control the
positions of the gates. When the switch is installed, release the gear clutch and push the sliding gates
manually to pre determine the position. Then weld the magnetic fixed plate to the racks and lighten the gear
clutch. Adjust the magnetic switch to the proper position by moving the gate with the motor. he switch box be
within 15 to 20 mm from the magnetic steel. If too far away, the switch would fail to work. (See Fig. 6)
Installation of Electric Controller
Place the electric controller in the proper position and wire the lines according to the wiring scheme. (See Fig. 8)
Operation
Check whether there is cooling oil (filled before shipping) before using the operator. Refill the transformer oil
NO. 25 it the oil is below the marked line. Cover the oil tank after refill but riot too lightly in case the oil, when
heated and pressured, would produce leakage.
Check the power supply and grounding and wiring before using the operator.
Release the gear clutch with the special key to make sure whether the gates can be moved manually. If
everything goes smoothly, tighten back the clutch with the key.
Switch on the power and start the operator to watch whether the gates slide smoothly.
Adjust the position of the magnetic switch until the positions of the opening and closing meet the requirement.
Adjust the pressure screw to make the output of the gate operator
meet the user’s requirement, that is, the
device is powerful enough to move the gates and capable of release from the clutch when it is blocked.
The special motor of the operator is only designed to work for shot time. It is runs continually for a long time, it
would stop work for too hot.
