GENERAL INFORMATION
Your parking gate has been designed to provide many years of reliable service. It
incorporates design features for all types of automatic parking control operations.
WARRANTY:
All equipment manufactured by Engineered Parking Systems is warranted against
defects in material and workmanship for one full year from date of shipment. All
equipment is tested and inspected before shipment. The warranty covers repairs or
replacement of any part that fails under normal usage. Transportation and labor
charges are to be paid by the customer.
GATE HOUSING:
The parking gate is constructed of eleven (11) gauge steel. It is of welded
construction with a top hinged access cover and a weatherproof door. The door is
fitted with a mounted key lock. Two keys are provided. The housing is finished with
powder coat paint.
OPERATING MECHANISM:
The gate arm is operated by a ½ HP instant reversing motor through a heavy duty
speed reducer with a 60:1 ratio. The gate arm flange is connected directly to the main
shaft. Adjustable cams are provided to limit gate arm travel. All internal parts are zinc
plated to prevent rusting.
ELECTRICAL CONTROLS:
The parking gate uses a self-contained, solid-state, plug-in controller. The field wiring
connections are to be terminated to the terminal panel. The terminal panel contains a
circuit breaker on/off switch and a manual raise/lower switch.
GATE ARM:
The gate arm comes in a standard 10 foot length, however 12, 14, and 16 foot lengths
are also available. They are finished in white and black diagonal stripes and are made
of pine.
A minimum of two warning signs/placards must be installed in the area
of the gate. A warning sign/placard is to be installed on each side of the gate
and be visible by persons located on the side of the gate on which the warning
sign/placard is installed. Figure 1 illustrates a warning sign/placard.
