GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS
If installed and used correctly, 415 automated system will ensure a
high degree of safety.
Some simple rules regarding behaviour will avoid any accidental
trouble:
Do not pass between the leaves when they are moving. Before
passing between the leaves, wait for their complete opening.
Do not stand between the leaves.
Do not stand near the automated system and do not allow chi-
ldren and other people or things to stand there.
Keep radiocontrols or any other pulse generator well away from
children to prevent the automated system from being activated
involuntarily.
Do not allow children to play with the automated system.
Do not willingly obstruct leaf movement.
Prevent any branches or shrubs from interfering with leaf move-
ment.
Keep illuminated signalling systems efficient and clearly visible.
Do not attempt to activate the leaves by hand unless you have
released them.
In the event of malfunctions, release the leaves to allow access
and wait for qualified technical personnel to do the necessary
work.
Do not make any alterations to the components of the automa-
ted system.
Do not attempt any kind of repair or direct action whatsoever
and contact qualified personnel only.
Call in qualified personnel at least every 6 months to check the
efficiency of the automated system, safety devices and earth
connection.
DESCRIPTION
The 415 automated system for swing gates is an electro-mecha-
nical non-reversing operator that transmits motion to the leaf via
a worm screw system.
The operator is available in many versions covering therefore
every installation requirement. The “ LS ” versions are equipped with
opening and closing limit switches. Every version is supplied with
opening and closing mechanical travel stops.
The non-reversing system ensures the leaf is mechanically locked
when the motor is not operating. A convenient and safe release
system with customised key makes it possible to manually move the
leaf in the event of a malfunction or of a power failure.
Consult the Installation Technician for the desired operating lo-
gic.
The leaves are normally in closed position.
When the electronic control unit receives an opening command
by radiocontrol or by any other pulse generator, it activates the
electro-mechanical operator to rotate the leaves until they reach
the opening position to provide access.
For detailed operation of the automated system under different
operating logics, consult the Installation Technician.
The automated system includes safety devices (photocells) which
prevent the leaves from moving when there is an obstacle in the
area they protect.
The light indicates that leaves are moving.
The correct operation and the declared specifications only
apply if FAAC accessories and safety devices are used.
As no mechanical clutch device is fitted, a control unit with
adjustable electronic clutch is required to ensure the ne-
cessary anti-crushing safety.
The 415 automated system was designed and built for control-
ling vehicle access. Avoid any other use whatever.
MANUAL OPERATION
If the automated system needs to be moved manually due to a
power lack or to an operator malfunction, proceed as follows:
Cut power by means of the safety circuit breaker (even in the
event of a power lack).
Slide the protective cap, Fig. 1/1.
Insert the key and turn it 90°, Fig. 1/2.
To release the operator turn 180° the control lever to the direc-

tion indicated by the arrow on the release system, Fig. 1/3.
Open and close the leaf manually.
Fig. 1
To hold the operator in manual operation the release device
should be left in its current positions and the system should
be without power.
RESTORING NORMAL OPERATION
To restore normal operating conditions, proceed as follows:
To prevent an involuntary pulse from activating the automated
system, make sure the system is not powered up using
the differential switch, before restoring normal operation
mode.
Turn the release system 180° in the opposite direction of the
arrow.
Turn 90° the release key and remove it.
Close the protection cover.
Power up the system and perform some movements in order
to check the correct restoring of every function of the auto-
mated system.
MAINTENANCE
To ensure a correct operation and a constant safety level over time
perform, every six months, a general check of the system paying
special attention to the safety devices. The booklet “Instructions
for use” contains a form for the registration of the maintenance
operations.
Every maintenance job or inspection performed by the
operator must only occur after having cut power to the
system.
REPAIRS
The user must not attempt any repair or job and must only and
exclusively contact qualified FAAC personnel or FAAC service
centres.
