(BY-PASS valves)
When mechanical installation is complete, make the
•
electrical connections by following the
instructions
supplied for
the control unit and ancillary equipments
installed
.
Start up the operator and check the gate thrust force.
•
With the gate in motion, make the adjustments in the
opening and closing, by turning the adjusting screws with
a screwdriver as shown in
fi
g.12
.
!
The opening thrust force of the wing should be set
slightly higher than the closing thrust force.
Repeat the operations of checking and adjusting until the
•
obtained thrust force complies to the regulations.
WARNING
The calibration value must be established on the site once
installation has taken place and must comply with the
existing Safety current standard (in Europe: EN 12445).
If the forces required to move the gate are higher than
standard limits, it is necessary to install a safety device
in accordance with the EN 12978 standard.
Adjusting the

Power the gate closing (rod extension) for a longer time
•
than the one necessary to complete the maneuver. The
movement stops due to the action of the brake.
Unscrew the slow-down adjusting screw, slowly, for max.
