In Europe, the automation of a gate falls under the Ma-
chinery Directive 2006/42/EC and the corresponding
harmonised standards. Anyone automating a gate
(new or existing) is classified as the Manufacturer of the
Machine. They are therefore required by law, among
other things, to carry out a risk analysis of the machine
(automatic gate in its entirety) and take protective
measures to fulfil the essential safety requirements
specified in Annex I of the Machinery Directive.
FAAC S.p.A. recommends that you always comply
with the EN 12453 standard and in particular that you
adopt the safety criteria and devices indicated, without
exception, including the dead-man function.
This manual also contains general information and
guidelines, which are purely illustrative and not exhau-
stive, in order to facilitate the activities carried out by
the Manufacturer of the Machine in all respects with
regard to carrying out the risk analysis and drafting the
instructions for use and maintenance of the machine. It
should be clearly understood that FAAC S.p.A. accepts
no liability for the reliability and/ or completeness of
the above instructions. As such, the manufacturer of
the machine must carry out all the activities required
by the Machinery Directive and the corresponding
harmonised standards on the basis of the actual condi-
tion of the locations and structures where the product
C4000I will be installed, prior to commissioning the
machine. These activities include the analysis of all
the risks associated with the machine and subsequent
implementation of all safety measures intended to
fulfil the essential safety requirements.
This manual contains references to European stan-
dards. The automation of a gate must fully comply
with any laws, standards and regulations applicable in
the country where installation will take place.
Unless otherwise specified, the measurements pro-
vided in the instructions are in mm.
