1 - SAFETY WARNINGS

CAUTION – ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS - important safety in-
structions. Compliance with the safety instructions below is
important for personal safety. Save these instructions.
Read the instructions carefully before proceeding with installation.
The design and manufacture of the devices making up the
product and the information in this manual are compliant with
current safety standards. However, incorrect installation or
programming may cause serious injury to those working on or
using the system. Compliance with the instructions provided
here when installing the product is therefore extremely impor-
tant.
If in any doubt regarding installation, do not proceed and contact the
Key Automation Technical Service for clarifications.
Under European legislation, an automatic door or gate system
must comply with the standards envisaged in the Directive
2006/42/EC (Machinery Directive) and in particular standards
EN 12445; EN 12453; EN 12635 and EN 13241-1, which enable
declaration of presumed conformity of the automation system.
Therefore, final connection of the automation system to the electri-
cal mains, system testing, commissioning and routine maintenance
must be performed by skilled, qualified personnel, in observance of
the instructions in the "Testing and commissioning the automation
system" section.
The aforesaid personnel are also responsible for the tests required
to verify the solutions adopted according to the risks present, and
for ensuring observance of all legal provisions, standards and regu-
lations, with particular reference to all requirements of the EN 12445
standard which establishes the test methods for testing door and
gate automation systems.
WARNING - Before starting installation, perform the following
checks and assessments:
ensure that every device used to set up the automation system is
suited to the intended system overall. For this purpose, pay special
attention to the data provided in the "Technical specifications" sec-
tion. Do not proceed with installation if any one of these devices is
not suitable for its intended purpose;
check that the devices purchased are sufficient to guarantee system
safety and functionality;
perform a risk assessment, including a list of the essential safety
requirements as envisaged in Annex I of the Machinery Directive,
specifying the solutions adopted. The risk assessment is one of the
documents included in the automation system's technical file. This
must be compiled by a professional installer.
Considering the risk situations that may arise during instal-
lation phases and use of the product, the automation system
must be installed in compliance with the following safety pre-
cautions:
never make modifications to any part of the automation system
other than those specified in this manual. Operations of this type
can only lead to malfunctions. The manufacturer declines all liability
for damage caused by unauthorised modifications to products;
if the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufac-
turer or its after-sales service, or in all cases by a person with similar
qualifications, to prevent all risks;
do not allow parts of the automation system to be immersed in water
or other liquids. During installation ensure that no liquids are able to
enter the various devices;
should this occur, disconnect the power supply immediately and
contact a Key Automation Service Centre. Use of the automation
system in these conditions may cause hazards;
never place automation system components near to sources of heat
or expose them to naked lights. This may damage system compo-
nents and cause malfunctions, fire or hazards;
all operations requiring opening of the protective housings of va-
rious automation system components must be performed with the
control unit disconnected from the power supply. If the disconnect
device is not in a visible location, affix a notice stating: "MAINTE-
NANCE IN PROGRESS":
connect all devices to an electric power line equipped with an
earthing system;
the product cannot be considered to provide effective protection
against intrusion. If effective protection is required, the automation
system must be combined with other devices;
the product may not be used until the automation system "commis-
sioning" procedure has been performed as specified in the "Auto-
mation system testing and commissioning" section;
the system power supply line must include a circuit breaker device
with a contact gap allowing complete disconnection in the condi-
tions specified by class III overvoltage;
use unions with IP55 or higher protection when connecting hoses,
pipes or cable glands;
the electrical system upstream of the automation system must com-
ply with the relevant regulations and be constructed to good wor-
kmanship standards;
users are advised to install an emergency stop button close to the
automation system (connected to the control PCB STOP input) to
allow the door to be stopped immediately in case of danger;
this device is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with impaired physical, sensory or mental capacities, or with lack
of experience or skill, unless a person responsible for their safety
provides surveillance or instruction in use of the device;
before starting the automation system, ensure that there is no-one
in the immediate vicinity;
before proceeding with any cleaning or maintenance work on the
automation system, disconnect it from the electrical mains;
special care must be taken to avoid crushing between the part ope-
rated by the automation system and any fixed parts around it;
children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
equipment.
WARNING - The automation system component packaging ma-
terial must be disposed of in full observance of current local
waste disposal legislation.
WARNING - The data and information in this manual are subject
to modification at any time, with no obligation on the part of
Key Automation S.r.l. to provide notice.
