Installation and commissioning
ProfilGate® cleaning fields eliminate dirt build-ups on tires, wheels
and shoes. They can be used for factory traffic from outdoor areas
to indoor areas as well as between different areas within a factory.
This minimizes carryover and the system actively contributes to the
cleanliness of your company.
The system is based on special brush strips that are clamped into
the grate. The brush strips actively work due to their inherent tension
and angled position of the bristles and thereby result in a mechani-
cal cleaning of the contact surfaces when covered. The dirt is rubbed
off and collected in the trays below. Later, the dirt can simply be
brushed or vacuumed out and it will not land in the areas behind it.
Typical configurations
Level installation – connection outside-inside
A typical ProfilGate® field is made of up of about 3-4 segments
wide and 4-5 segments long. It is inserted level so that it is pos-
sible to drive over it without any noticeable differences compared
to normal flooring. The field should only be driven on in a straight
direction and this being in the installation direction of the brush
strips.
Ground level installation - wet cleaning ProfilGate® i45/sti45,
i55/sti55 aqua
For the models listed above, the trays can be filled with cleaning
or disinfecting liquid. Through the capillary effect of the bristles,
the contact surfaces are moistened with cleaning liquid upon
passing. The liquid can be replaced through a drain or a wet
vacuum.
Level installation –
Combination ProfilGate® and ProfilGate® dryzone
A ProfilGate® cleaning field can be combined with special
ProfilGate® dryzone segments to remove moisture. The inserted
fleece absorbs the moisture from the contact surfaces.
Combination with induction loops
Since ProfilGate® contains metallic components, an existing
induction loop is permanently occupied through the installation
and its function is no longer present. To not lose the effect of
ProfilGate®, you can either
- lay the wheel cleaning field with a little distance to the induc-
tion loop,
- or adjust the frequency of the induction loop to the occupation
by the wheel cleaning field.
Should only the installation of an induction loop be possible
and the induction loop is not adjusted correspondingly, we
recommend using a sensor that is not installed in the ground
(for example, light barrier or radar).
Grounding in explosion-protected or ESD areas
If the ProfilGate® system is installed in an area that requires
special conditions regarding electrostatic charges (for example,
“ex-protected” or “ESD” area), a separate grounding of the trays
is required. On request, one or multiple threaded bolts may be
attached to the trays for connection with a grounding system
to allow for reliable potential equalization. In this case, the
individual trays should additionally connected to each other for
conduction (for example, through soldering or welding on the tray
edge).
Lay above ground – ProfilGate® b/st55 go with ramps
If a ground level installation is not possible, special ProfileGate®
go ramps are available, which only need a little space
in pedestrian passages.
Laying above ground – driving over ramps
It is possible to operate the cleaning field above ground for test
purposes. The segments are placed on the ground and fixed in
place through ramps in the front and back as well as through
side fixing corners. This construction minimizes damage to the
floor, but we only recommend it in cases of exception, because
this results in additional sources of hazard and disadvantages.
Make sure that the edges of the cleaning field are secured
against being driven on or stepped on from the side (warning
tape, chain barrier, etc.).
