Portavant 80 automatic 5
Revision 12/2017
The Portavant 80 automatic system can be operated as a manual sliding door temporarily or
permanently if so required to ensure the safety of particularly vulnerable persons (see
section 8 "Operating instructions"). The operating instructions also explain how to reduce the
immanent residual risks by using the semi-automatic mode and or by reducing the door's
motion speed (primarily the closing speed). See also section 3.3 "Operating modes and
safety levels".
In general, the Portavant 80 automatic system features a very high safety level.
2.4 Safety analysis by installer
Before installing the Portavant 80 automatic system, the installer must perform a safety
analysis of the entire doorset with due consideration of the conditions of the installation site
and the anticipated user groups of the door. If it is assumed that the doorset may represent
an unreasonable hazard to particularly vulnerable persons, then the operating mode of the
door can be changed and set in such a way that the mode (e.g. semi-automatic or manual)
cannot be manipulated without major intervention. See section 7 "Safety analysis by the
installer according to DIN 18650 / EN 16005".
DANGER!
(Risk of crushing/shearing/impact)

To avoid potential danger, the installer must perform a safety analysis
according to DIN 18650 / EN 16005 (see section 7).

It is not possible to fit the Portavant 80 automatic system with safety
sensors as an option. If the result of the safety analysis shows that
safety sensors are required, then the Portavant 80 automatic system
may not be installed.
2.5 Limitation of liability / Exclusion of liability for the USA and Canada
The Portavant 80 automatic system may only be used for its intended purpose (see section
2.1 "Intended purpose"). The manufacturer excludes any liability for damage resulting from
unauthorised changes to the Portavant 80 automatic system.
Operation of the Portavant 80 automatic system in the United States of
America (USA) or Canada is not permissible.
