1_ INSTALLATION WARNINGS

GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

1) Carefully read all instructions before installation, as
they provide important instructions regarding the safe-
ty, installation, operation and maintenance. Incorrect
installation or use of the product may lead to serious
physical injury.
2) Never leave packaging materials (plastic, polystyrene etc.)
within the reach of children as they constitute a potential
hazard.
3) Keep the instructions in a safe place for future consultation.
4) This product has been designed and constructed exclu-
sively for the use specified in this documentation. Any other
use not specified herein may impair product integrity and/or
constitute a hazard.
5) TAU declines all liability for improper use or use other than
as specified for this automation.
6) Never install the product in explosive atmospheres.
7) The mechanical elements must comply with the require-
ments as stated in the standards EN 12604 and EN 12605.
For non European member states, in addition to the na-
tional reference standards, the above-mentioned standards
must be observed to ensure an adequate level of safety.
8) TAU is not responsible for failure to observe Good Practice
in construction of the gates/doors to be power-operated,
nor any deformations occurring during use.
9) Considering the hazards that may occur during installation
and use of T-ONE, maximum safety is only ensured if the
product is installed in strict observance of current legisla-
tion,. standards and regulations. This chapter contains gen-
eral warnings, while other important warnings are provided
in chapters "3.1 Preliminary checks" and "8. Testing and
commissioning".
According to the most recent legislation, the installa-
tion of a power-operated gate or door must be in full
observance of the standards envisaged by European
Directive 2006/42/EC (Machinery Directive) and in
particular the standards: EN 12445; EN 12453 and EN
12635, which enable the declaration of presumed con-
formity.
10) Before installation, an assessment of the associated risks
must be made, including a list of the essential safety re-
quirements as envisaged in Appendix I of the Machinery
Directive, specifying the relative solutions adopted. Note
that the risk assessment is one of the documents included
in the automation Technical documentation.
11) Check whether other devices are needed to complete the
T-ONE automation on the basis of the specific conditions
of use and dangers present; take into account all risks of
impact, crushing, shearing, dragging etc. and other hazards
in general.
12) Installation must be performed in compliance with the
standards EN 12453 and EN 12445.
13) Before performing any operations on the system, discon-
nect from the mains and detach the batteries.
14) On the automation power line, install a device for discon-
nection from the power mains with a gap between contacts
equal to or greater than 3 mm. Use of a 6A thermal mag-
netic circuit breaker with multi-pole switch is recommended.
15) Check upline of the system that there is a residual current
circuit breaker with a threshold of 0.03 A.
16) Ensure that the earthing system is to professional stand-
ards and connected to the metal section of the gate/door.
17) The automation is equipped with an intrinsic anti-crushing
safety device comprising a torque control. The trip thresh-
old must in all cases be checked as stated in the standards
specified in point 12.
18) The safety devices (standard EN 12978) enable the protec-
tion of danger areas from risks associated with mechani-
cal movements such as crushing, dragging and shearing.
10
19) The use of at least one luminous indicator is recommended
for each system, as well as a warning notice fixed suitably
to the frame structure, in addition to the devices specified in
point 18.
20) TAU declines all liability for the safety and efficient opera-
tion of the automation in the event of using system compo-
nents not produced by TAU.
21) For maintenance, use exclusively original TAU parts.
22) Never modify components that are part of the automation
system.
23) The automation may only be used after completing the
commissioning procedure as specified in chapter 5 "Testing
and commissioning".
24) The installer must provide all information regarding manual
operation of the system in the event of an emergency and
supply the system User with the "User Guide" enclosed with
the product.
25) Never allow children or other persons to stay in the vicinity
of the product during operation.
26) Keep all radio controls or other pulse supplier device out of
the reach of children to prevent inadvertent activation of the
automation.
27) Transit should only occur with the automation stationary.
28) The user must never attempt to repair or intervene directly
on the product; always contact qualified personnel for as-
sistance.
29) Before accessing internal terminals under the cover of T-
ONE, disconnect all power circuits. If the disconnect device
is not in a visible location, affix a notice stating "CAUTION:
MAINTENANCE IN PROGRESS".
30) Maintenance: at least every six months, make a general
check of the system, with special reference to the efficiency
of the safety devices (including, when envisaged, the op-
erator thrust force) and release mechanisms.
31) All actions not expressly envisaged in these instructions are
strictly prohibited.
All documentation related to the system should be kept inside
or in the immediate vicinity of the control unit.
2_ PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE
(fig. 1)
T-ONE is an electromechanical gearmotor for the automatic move-
ment of sliding gates for residential applications, and is equipped
with an electronic control unit with built-in receiver for radio control.
There are several versions available: 12V DC and 230V AC.
The irreversible system guarantees mechanical blocking of the
gate when the motor is not operating. A practical and safe release
system with personalised key enables manual movement of the
gate in the event of a malfunction or power failure.
The T-ONE operator has been designed and construct-
ed to control vehicle access. Never use for other pur-
poses.

The data regarding the performance of T-ONE3B, T-ONE5B, T-
ONE8BR, T-ONE10B, T-ONE5, T-ONE8 and T-ONEXL are stated
in the chapter "TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS" and are the only
values that ensure the correct assessment for suitability of use.
In general the series T-ONE is able to automate gates with a weight
of up to 400Kg (T-ONE3B), 500 Kg (T-ONE5), 600Kg (T-ONE5B),
800 Kg (T-ONE8BR and T-ONE8), 1000 Kg (T-ONE10B) and 1200
Kg (T-ONEXL).
Maximum operating curve:
This curve enables identification of the maximum operating time
(T) according to the frequency of use (F).
E.g.: The T-ONE5 gearmotor can operate without interruption at a
frequency of use of 40%.
