N
OTES FOR THE
I
NSTALLER
The control unit was designed to facilitate the task of
automating closure while respecting the guidelines set out in
the Machines Directive and the CPD.
The safety of the final installation site and adherence to all
current legislation is, nevertheless, the responsibility of the
individual assembling the various parts to construct a
complete closure device.
To facilitate the fulfilment of the obligations relating to
regulations (EN 12453 - EN 12445 - EN 60335-2-103), the
control unit is designed to operate in conjunction with various
safety devices, namely:
•
Sensitive tubes for fixing to cabinet edges (to enable
force limitation), monitor in compliance with category
2 of EN 954-1, according to provisions made in point
5.1.1.6 of EN12453; after installation the effective
force limitation must be checked using the methods
detailed in regulations EN 12453, EN 12445 and EN
60335-2-103.
•
Photoelectric cells monitored in compliance with
category 2 of EN 954-1, according to the provisions
made by point 5.1.1.6 of EN 12453.
It is, however, the installer’s responsibility to ensure that the
minimum protection level of the main closure edge is
achieved.
By programming the control unit suitably and installing the
safety devices correctly, the installer is able to guarantee the
minimum level of protection in accordance with the provisions
made in paragraph 5.5 of standard EN 12453.
If a safety device fault is detected (5.1.1.6 EN 12453) the
control unit automatically changes to a non self-holding
control. In accordance with points 5.1.1.4 of regulation EN
12453 and 4.1.1.4 of EN 12445, it is necessary to check that
the primary edge speed is < 0.5 m/s and that the stopping
distances respect the values indicated by the legislation (after
the command is sent the stopping distance should not be >
50 mm for spaces < 500 mm and > 100 mm for spaces > 100
mm).
In accordance with point 4.1.2 of regulation EN 12445 it is
necessary to check that:
- the door is not capable of lifting a mass of 20 kg (or 40 kg for
doors installed in areas which are not accessible to the public)
from its closed position. The mass must be attached to the
door at the least favourable position. The maximum size of the
mass should be 300 mm in any direction, or
- when the door is capable of lifting a mass of 20 kg (or 40 kg),
it must stop before the lifted body reaches the lintel or other
fixed parts of the building.
The regulation enables an alternative safeguard against the
risk of lifting to be achieved through the installation of closure
systems which are not fitted with hooks, openings or
protruding parts where an individual may become entangled,
so that it is impossible for anyone to be pushed or lifted by the
door.
Do not use the control unit in conjunction with exit door
sites or emergency exit routes.
We advise that you also take note of the following
recommendations:
−
Before shutter automation, it is necessary to check the
product is in good condition and that it complies with EN
12604 and the Machines Directive.
−
The wiring of external electrical components must comply
with EN 60204-1 as amended in section 5.2.7 of EN
12453. Power supply leads and connection cables must
be secured through the use of cable clamps, which are
supplied with the product.
−
The motor reducer used to move the shutter must comply
with section 5.2.7. of EN 12453.
−
If present, the push-button station for manual control must
be mounted in such a way that the user is not placed in a
dangerous situation, in compliance with point 5.2.8 of EN
12453.
−
The control unit is not equipped with a 230 V a/c electric
line sectioning device. The installer is responsible for
installing a sectioning device in the system. An
omnipolar switch with overheating category III must be
installed. The sectioning device must be positioned so
that it is protected against accidental closure, in
compliance with section 5.2.9 of standard EN 12453.
−
In compliance with EN 12453 it is recommended that
motor reducers fitted with an electromechanical
unlocking device are used, so that the door can be
moved manually if necessary.
−
In
compliance
with
point
5.4.3
of
EN
12453
electromechanical unlocking systems or similar devices
should be used as these allow the door to stop safely at
its stop limit.
−
Power supply and motor connection cables which are
suitale for use in conjunction with the pg9 cable clamps
provided must have an external diameter which
measures between 4.5 and 7 mm. The internal
conductor wires must have a nominal cross-section of
0.75 mm².
If a channel is not used, we recommend that
cables in H05RR-F material are used.
−
The D.S. Power Supply output must be dedicated to the
powering of photoelectric cells. It must not be used for
other purposes.
−
The safety devices connected to DS1 must be powered
using the D.S. Power Supply output. If several of the
devices mentioned above are used, they must be
connected in series.
−
For the radio receiver to operate correctly when two or
more control units are used, we recommend that you
install the devices at least 3 metres away from each
other.
Warning
All operations which require the casing to be opened (such
as wire connection, programming, etc.) must be carried out
during installation, by skilled staff only. For any other
procedure which requires the casing to be opened again
(re-programming, repairs or site modifications), please
contact the technical assistance service.
