GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE OPERATOR

The (VU) VULCAN operator is constructed to form part
of a swing gate automation system. Allows the
requirements of standard EN 12453:2017 to be
fulfilled.
It comprises a metal body, which contains a hydraulic
pump and a drive piston.
VUA and VU2A Models
(with mechanical slow down)
The VUA models have mechanical slow down bushing
in the piston rod, meaning the speed slows down when
approaching the end of the extension travel (closing
travel, when the operator is installed for inward
opening), ending in a soft stop.
The VU2A models have mechanical slow down for the
two travels (opening and closing).
