1. INSTALLATION WARNINGS -
GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
1)
Carefully read all instructions before installation, as they provide important instructions regarding the safety, installation, operation
and maintenance. Incorrect installation or use of the product may lead to serious physical injury.
2)
Never leave packaging materials (plastic, polystyrene etc.) within the reach of children as they constitute a potential hazard.
3)
Keep the instructions in a safe place for future consultation.
4)
This product has been designed and constructed exclusively for the use specified in this documentation. Any other use not specified herein
may impair product integrity and/or constitute a hazard.
5)
TAU declines all liability for improper use or use other than as specified for this automation.
6)
Never install the product in explosive atmospheres.
7)
The mechanical elements must comply with the requirements as stated in the standards EN 12604 and EN 12605. For non European member
states, in addition to the national reference standards, the above-mentioned standards must be observed to ensure an adequate level of
safety.
8)
TAU is not responsible for failure to observe Good Practice in construction of the gates/doors to be power-operated, nor any deformations
occurring during use.
9)
Considering the hazards that may occur during installation and use of T-ONE, maximum safety is only ensured if the product is installed in
strict observance of current legislation,. standards and regulations. This chapter contains general warnings, while other important warnings are
provided in chapters “3.1 Preliminary checks” and “8. Testing and commissioning”.
According to the most recent legislation, the installation of a power-operated gate or door must be in full observance of the
standards envisaged by European Directive 2006/42/EC (Machinery Directive) and in particular the standards: EN 12445; EN
12453 and EN 12635, which enable the declaration of presumed conformity.
10)
Before installation, an assessment of the associated risks must be made, including a list of the essential safety requirements as envisaged in
Appendix I of the Machinery Directive, specifying the relative solutions adopted. Note that the risk assessment is one of the documents included
in the automation Technical documentation.
11)
Check whether other devices are needed to complete the T-ONE automation on the basis of the specific conditions of use and dangers present;
take into account all risks of impact, crushing, shearing, dragging etc. and other hazards in general.
12)
Installation must be performed in compliance with the standards EN 12453 and EN 12445.
13)
Before performing any operations on the system, disconnect from the mains and detach the batteries.
14)
On the automation power line, install a device for disconnection from the power mains with a gap between contacts equal to or greater than 3
mm. Use of a 6A thermal magnetic circuit breaker with multi-pole switch is recommended.
15)
Check upline of the system that there is a residual current circuit breaker with a threshold of 0.03 A.
16)
Ensure that the earthing system is to professional standards and connected to the metal section of the gate/door.
17)
The automation is equipped with an intrinsic anti-crushing safety device comprising a torque control. The trip threshold must in all cases be
checked as stated in the standards specified in point 12.
18)
The safety devices (standard EN 12978) enable the protection of danger areas from
risks associated with mechanical movements
such as
crushing, dragging and shearing.
19)
The use of at least one luminous indicator is recommended for each system, as well as a warning notice fixed suitably to the frame structure,
in addition to the devices specified in point 18.
20)
TAU declines all liability for the safety and efficient operation of the automation in the event of using system components not produced by TAU.
21)
For maintenance, use exclusively original TAU parts.
22)
Never modify components that are part of the automation system.
23)
The installer must provide all information regarding manual operation of the system in the event of an emergency and supply the system User
with the “User Guide” enclosed with the product.
24)
Never allow children or other persons to stay in the vicinity of the product during operation.
25)
Keep all radio controls or other pulse supplier device out of the reach of children to prevent inadvertent activation of the automation.
26)
Transit should only occur with the automation stationary.
27)
The user must never attempt to repair or intervene directly on the product; always contact qualified personnel for assistance.
28)
Before accessing internal terminals under the cover of T-ONE, disconnect all power circuits. If the disconnect device is not in a visible location,
affix a notice stating “CAUTION: MAINTENANCE IN PROGRESS”.
29)
Maintenance: at least every six months, make a general check of the system, with special reference to the efficiency of the safety devices (includ
-
ing, when envisaged, the operator thrust force) and release mechanisms.
30)
All actions not expressly envisaged in these instructions are strictly prohibited.
All documentation related to the system should be kept inside or in the immediate vicinity of the control unit.
2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE (fig. 1)
T-ONE is an electromechanical gearmotor for the automatic movement of sliding gates for residential applications, and is equipped with an elec-
tronic control unit with built-in receiver for radio control.
There are several versions available: 12V DC and 230V AC.
The irreversible system guarantees mechanical blocking of the gate when the motor is not operating. A practical and safe release system with
personalised key enables manual movement of the gate in the event of a malfunction or power failure.
The T-ONE operator has been designed and constructed to control vehicle access. Never use for other purposes.

2.1. Product application limits and dimensions (fig. 2)
The data regarding the performance of T-ONE3B, T-ONE5B, T-ONE8BR, T-ONE10B, T-ONE5, T-ONE8 and T-ONEXL are stated in the chapter “TECH-
NICAL SPECIFICATIONS” and are the only values that ensure the correct assessment for suitability of use.
In general the series T-ONE is able to automate gates with a weight of up to 400Kg (T-ONE3B), 500 Kg (T-ONE5), 600Kg (T-ONE5B), 800 Kg (T-
ONE8BR and T-ONE8), 1000 Kg (T-ONE10B) and 1200 Kg (T-ONEXL).
Maximum operating curve:
This curve enables identification of the maximum operating time (T) according to the frequency of use (F).
E.g.: The T-ONE5 gearmotor can operate without interruption at a frequency of use of 40%.
To guarantee optimal operation, the unit must operate within the operating range below the curve.
