 3.    INSTALLATION

3.1 

Preliminary Checks

Before the installation, to ensure correct working of the automation, please check the followings:

• 

Make sure the gate’s structure is suitable to be automated

• 

Check the weight, dimensions and type of the gate is appropriate to this type of automation.

• 

E

nsure the  gate is able to open and close smoothly and is free of obstacles that may cause the gate to potentially derail.

• 

Check the ground and all surfaces for the installation are suitable for stable and safe fixing of the gate automation.

• 

Make sure the installation area for the automation is wide enough to accommodate the anchor plate and the 

motor can be accessed easily in the event of power cuts. 

• 

Ensure the location where the automation is installed is not exposed to flood hazards; if in doubt raise the automation 

from above ground level.

• 

In cases where the automation has to be installed in a vehicles path or manoeuvre area, it is recommended to 

protect it against accidental damage.

• 

Ensure an efficient earth connection system is in place.

• 

Make sure the surfaces for photocells fixing areas are flat and smooth enough to allow a perfect alignment 

between transmitting and receiving units. They must both directly see each other as they are not reflective.
