400 Automation Systems
Read the end user guide carefully before using the product and
keep it in a safe place for future reference.
GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS
When correctly installed and used, the 412 Compact automation
system ensures a high degree of safety.
A few simple rules should be followed to prevent accidental
problems.
- Do not pass between the leaves when they are still moving:
always wait until they have opened completely.
- Do not linger between the leaves.
- Do not linger near the automation system; do not allow children
or adults to linger near it; and do not leave objects near it.
- Keep wireless control devices, or other devices that might
accidentally activate the automation system, out of the reach
of children.
- Do not allow children to play with the automation system.
- Do not impede the movement of the gate leaves.
- Do not allow branches or bushes to interfere with the movement
of the gate leaves.
- Ensure that the warning lamps are in always in working order
and visible.
- Do not attempt to move the leaves manually unless you have
first unlocked them.
- In case of a malfunction, unlock the leaves to allow vehicles to
pass, and call a qualified technician.
- If you have set the manual mode, before restoring normal
operation, disconnect the power supply.
- Do not modify the components of the automation system.
- Do not attempt to repair the automation system or to perform
any operation on it. Call a qualified technician.
- At least once every 6 months, have qualified personnel check
that the automation system, safety devices and earth
connection are in working order.
DESCRIPTION
These instructions apply to the following models:
400 CBC - 400 SB - 400 SBS - 400 CBAC - 400 CBACR -
400 CBAC long - 400 SB long.
The FAAC 400 automation for swing gates is a hydraulic unit
comprising an electric pump and a hydraulic piston which
transmits motion to the gate leaf.
Models fitted with hydraulic locks do not require the installation
of an electric lock, as the hydrualic system ensures that the gate
leaf is mechanically locked when the motor is not in operation.
Models without hydraulic locks must be fitted with one or more
electric locks to ensure mechanical locking of the gate leaves.
The FAAC 400 can automate gate leaves up to 7 m in length,
depending on the model.
The operators are controlled by an electronic control unit,
housed in an enclosure which assures adequate protection
against atmospheric agents.
The leaves are normally closed. When the electronic control unit
receives an open command from the remote radio control or any
other control device, it activates the electromechanical system
and causes the leaves to rotate by an angle of up to 110° to their
open position, so as to allow access.
If automatic operation has been selected, the leaves close
automatically after the selected pause time.
If semiautomatic operation has been selected, a second impulse
must be sent to close the leaves.
An open command given while the leaves are closing causes the
leaves to reverse direction of movement.
A stop command (if available) stops movement at any time.
For detailed information on the operation of the automation
system in the various operating modes, consult the installation
technician.
The automation system is equipped with a photocell safety
device which prevents the leaves from closing when the
photocells are obscured by an obstacle.
The 400 automation system is also equipped with an anti-
crushing safety device (fitted as standard) that limits the torque
transmitted to the leaves.
The operators ensure that the system is mechanically locked
when the motor is not running, so there is no need to install a lock.
The leaves can be opened manually only after operating the
release device.
The lamp flashes while the leaves are moving.
MANUAL OPERATION
If the gate has to be operated manually due to a malfunction
or power supply failure, remove the sliding cover and insert the
key provided into the release system as shown in Fig. 1.
To release the operator, turn the key a full turn anticlockwise, as
indicated in Fig. 1.
Open or close the leaf manually.
N.B. : ON MODELS WITHOUT HYDRUALIC LOCKS IT WILL ALSO BE
NECESSARY TO MANUALLY RELEASE THE ELECTRIC LOCK.
RETURNING TO NORMAL OPERATION
To prevent accidental operation during this procedure,
disconnect the system from the power supply before re-locking
the operators.
To re-lock the operator, turn the key clockwise (Fig. 1).
