FAAC MODEL 950 BM Door Operator
1.2 DOOR MAX OPENING ANGLE
According to the type of mounting and following the installation dimen-
sions shown in Tables A or B, different door max. opening angles can
be obtained according to the lintel thickness. Table 5 and 6 shows
the maximum values of the opening angles that can be obtained in
the different configurations.

Notes: 1) To lay electric cables, use suitable rigid and/or flexible piping.
2) Always keep the low voltage accessory connection cables
separate from the 115 V power cables. To avoid interference,
use separate sheaths.
3. INSTALLATION
3.1. PRELIMINARY CHECKS
To ensure correct operation of the automated system the structure of
the existing door must meet the following requirements:
- length and weight as specified in Table 3 (paragraph 1.1.);
- max. jamb depth as specified in Table 4;
- robust and rigid structure of the leaf;
- good condition of the existing hinges;
- smooth, uniform movement of the leaf with no abnormal friction
during its entire travel;
- “neutral” position of the door during its entire travel. If the door tends
to close or open, check the alignment of the hinges.
- Presence of mechanical travel stops.
3.2. MOUNTING THE OPERATOR
1) For details on the mounting position of the operator and the type
of arm to use (pushing or sliding), refer to the relevant mounting
table and drill the holes required to mount the operator and the
arm.
NOTE: The two intermediate operator fixing holes are not in a central
position (see Mounting tables). The holes are offset in order to ensure
that the operator is mounted with the correct direction of rotation of
the mechanism.
The mounting tables are the following:
Table A: LINTEL MOUNTING (PUSHING ARTICULATED ARM):
Outward opening.
Table B: LINTEL MOUNTING (SLIDING ARM):
Inward opening.
2) Mount the casing fixing brackets as shown in fig.3 according to
the type of mounting to be made. Tighten the screws (fig.3-ref.1)
and fit the screws (fig.3-ref2) without tightening them completely.
3) Mount the operator using the six M6 screws and washers provided.
Warning:
- The structure of the lintel (or the door) at the operator mounting
position must not exhibit any significant deformation.
- The operator must be mounted parallel to the floor.
NOTE: If the sliding arm is to be used, the driving arm must be mounted
before the operator is fixed on the lintel (see paragraph 3.3.2.).
3.3. MOUNTING THE DRIVING ARMS
3.3.1. MOUNTING THE PUSHING ARTICULATED ARM
(fig.5)
1) Close the door.
2) Free arms (1) and (2) by loosening the fixing dowel (3) as shown
in fig.5.
3) Fit arm (1) on the coupling of the operator transmission shaft by
means of the standard shaft (8) and the screw (4) provided (fig.5).
The arm must be mounted perpendicular to the closed door.
Note: If a greater distance between the operator and the arm is requi-
red, use the shaft modular extensions, available as accessories, until
the required distance is reached. (see Table A/B).
4) Mount plate (5) of arm (2) on the door or the lintel using the two
M6 screws and the washers provided (fig. 5). The installation
dimensions are given in Table A/B.
5) Slacken the fixing screw (6) and assemble the two arms by
tightening the dowel (3) (fig.5).
6) Turn arm (1) until arm (2) is perpendicular to the closed door or
the lintel as shown in fig. 5 (a-b), sliding the spacer (7) along arm
(2).
7) Tighten the fixing screw (6) between the two arms.
The length of arm (2) is given in the relevant mounting tables. If
necessary, cut off the section of the arm extending beyond the
articulation and then cover its end using the cap provided (fig. 5).
8) Check manually that the door is free to open and close fully and
that it comes to rest against the mechanical stops. If the door
does not close correctly, adjust the return spring as described in
paragraph 9.
Important: The two driving arms must never touch.
NOTE: it is advisable to always adjust the operator internal mechanical
stops (fig.1 -ref 4), open/closed, so that they are reached at the same
time when the leaf mechanical stops are reached.
3.3.2. MOUNTING THE SLIDING ARM
(fig.6)
1) Mount arm (1) on the operator transmission shaft by means of
the standard shaft (5) and the screw (2) provided (fig.6).
The arm
must be fitted pointing 45° outwards as shown in fig. 6(a)
.
Note: If a larger distance is required between the operator and the
arm use the shaft modular extensions available as accessories, until
the required distance is reached (see Table C/D).
Warning: Mount arm (1) on the transmission shaft before fitting the
operator on the lintel (fig.6).
2) Insert the teflon slide (3) inside the sliding guide (4) (fig.6).
3) Pull arm (1) inwards manually as shown in fig. 6(b) and secure
the sliding guide (4) by means of two M6 screws on the closed
door as shown in Table C/D.
4) Check manually that the door is free to open and close fully and
comes to rest against the mechanical travel stops. If the door
does not close correctly, adjust the return spring as described in
paragraph 9.
