3. MAXIMUM USE CURVE

The curve makes it possible to establish 

maximum work time (T) according to use 

frequency (F).

With reference to IEC 34-1 Standard, the 

740 gearmotor with an S3 duty, can ope-

rate at a use frequency of 100%.

To ensure efficient operation, it is neces-

sary to operate in the work range below 

the curve.

Important:

 The curve is obtained at a 

temperature of 20°C. Exposure to 

the direct sun rays can reduce use 

frequency down to 20%.

Calculation of use frequency

Use frequency is the percentage of 

effective work time (o closing) 

compared to total time of cycle (opening 

+ c pause times).

Calculation formula:

 

 

    Ta 

Tc

 

 

% F = 

  X 100

 

 

 

      Ta + Tc + Tp + Ti

where:  

Ta = opening time

Tc = closing time

Tp = pause time

Ti = time of interval between two complete cycles

5. INSTALLING THE AUTOMATED SYSTEM

5.1. Preliminary checks

To ensure safety and efficiency of the automated system, make sure the following 

requirements are observed before installing the system:

• The gate structure must be suitable for automation. The following are necessary 

in particular: wheel diameter must be in proportion to the weight of the gate, 

an upper track must be provided, plus mechanical travel stops to prevent the 

gate derailing.

• The soil must guarantee a perfect stability of the foundation plinth.

• There must be no pipes or electric cables in the plinth excavation area.

• If the gearmotor is located in the vehicle transit or manoeuvre area, adequate 

means of protection should be provided against accidental impact.

• Check if an efficient earthing is available for connection to the gearmotor.

5.2. Masonry for foundation plate

1- Assemble the foundation plate as shown in figure 04.

2- In order to ensure that the pinion and rack engage correctly, the foundation pla-

te must be positioned as shown in Fig. 05 (right closing) or Fig. 06 (left closing).

Warning: The arrow on the foundation plate must always point to the gate, see 

Figs. 05-06.

3- After determining the position of the foundation plate, make a plinth as shown in 

Fig. 07 and wall the plate, providing several sheaths for routing the cables. Using 

a spirit level, check if the plate is perfectly level. Wait for the cement to set.

4- Lay the electric cables for connection to the accessories and power supply as 

shown in diagram of Fig. 03. To facilitate connections to the control unit, allow the 

cables to protrude by at least 50 cm from the hole on the foundation plate.

5.3. Mechanical installation

1- Remove the cover, Fig. 08 ref. 1.

2- Position the operator on the foundation 

plate, using the supplied washers and nuts 

as shown in Fig. 09. During this operation, 

route the cables through the appropriate 

openings in the motor body (See Fig.01 

ref.9). If necessary, the two holes can be 

joined using a hammer to obtain a wider 

space.

3- Adjust the height of the gearmotor and 

the distance from the gate, referring to 

dimensions in Fig. 10.

 Attention: This operation is necessary to 

ensure the rack is correctly secured and 

to enable any new adjustments.
