6.1
Performance test, electrically operated frame
After installation and prior to use, all anti pinch functions of FlexiElectric and VertiElectric must be
tested. The test must be carried out by competent personnel. Subsequently the test shall be
carried out at least once a year:
Testing prior to connection of mains voltage:
1. Check that the mounting instructions have been observed.
2. Check that all cables have been connected correctly and that the plugs have been pressed
home.
3. Check that there are no load on the FlexiElectric or VertiElectric frames.
4. Check that there is nothing preventing the FlexiElectric or VertiElectric from moving freely
within the height adjustment range.
Now connect mains voltage to the control unit and proceed as follows:
5. Check that LED on master Smartbox (No. 3) flashes with the number of connected
Smartboxes.
For every FlexiElectric the following tests must be carried out:
6. Press DOWN on the control switch, move the FlexiElectric frame to bottom position and
check that the movement is even and smooth.
7. Press UP on the control switch, move the FlexiElectric frame to top position and check that
the movement is even and smooth.
Test of the safety between the FlexiElectric frames:
8. Safety strip (downwards movement) on every FlexiElectric must be tested – See also
instructions in the FlexiElectric Manual
9. Move the first FlexiElectric to the top position, and the next FlexiElectric to the bottom
position
10. Press UP on the control switch (next FlexiElectric) and let the frame move 2-5 cm upward.
Now activate the safety strip on the first FlexiElectric by pressing it lightly. The frame must
stop the upward movement, move 1-2 cm downward and stop.
11. Test the rest of the FlexiElectric frames according to these procedures to make sure that all
risk of trapping has been tested and found safe.
Test of the safety between the FlexiElectric frames and the above VertiElectric:
12. First perform a performance test according to the VertiElectric Manual on each unit
13. Test one FlexiElectric at a time by moving it upwards, pressing the safety stopplate on the
above VertiElectric shall stop the upward movement, move 1-2 cm downward and stop.
14. Follow the above instructions to make sure that all combinations / trapping risk has been
passed (refer to combination possibilities section 9)
If all these tests are ok, the system of frames are ready for use.
