Wiring Specifications
Refer to the following steps for details on power and
accessory wiring for the operator.
USE COPPER WIRE ONLY!
AC Power Wiring
1. Connect power in accordance with local codes. The green
ground wire must be properly connected.
2. Wire insulation must be suitable to the application.
3. Electrical outlets are supplied in all models for convenience
with occasional use or low power consumption devices only.
DC Control and Accessory Wiring
1. All control devices are 24 VDC, which can be run up to 2000
feet with 14 AWG wire.
2. Control wiring must be run in a separate conduit from power
wiring. Running them together may cause interference and
faulty signals in some accessories
3. A three-wire shielded conductor cable is required to connect
two operators together for dual operation. You must use
Beldon 8760 Twisted Pair shielded Cable (or equivalent)
only (P/N 2500-1982, per foot). See Page 21 for details of
this connection.
Note: The shield wire should be connected in both the
operators.
Earth Ground
Install a ground rod and connect it to the operator’s control box
in every gate operator installation. A good earth ground is
necessary to allow the controller’s built -in surge and lightning
protection circuitry to work effectively.
All ROTARY GATE SYSTEMS gate operators are supplied
with a power disconnect switch to turn on and off the power
available to the operators. Following wiring specifications
below, incoming power should be brought into the operator and
connected to the appropriate wires from the disconnect box.
*NOTE:
Do not splice the ground wire. Use a single piece of
solid copper 12 AWG wire between the ground rod and the
operator.
1. Install an 8-foot long copper ground or nest to the operator
control box.
2. Use a clamp to connect a solid copper 12 AWG ground
wire to the ground rod.
3. Route the ground wire to the operator control box.
4. Connect the ground wire to the operator’s control box.
WARNING
ALL AC ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO THE POWER SOURCE
AND THE OPERATOR MUST BE MADE BY A LICENSED
ELECTRICIAN AND MUST OBSERVE ALL NATIONAL AND
LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.
WARNING
The gate must be installed in a location so that enough
clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent
structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of
entrapment. Swing gates shall not open into public areas.
