Testing And Commissioning; Testing; Commissioning - Nice Tub Instructions Et Recommandations Pour L'installateur

5) Testing and commissioning

These are the most important stages in the automation system
installation procedure in order to ensure the maximum safety levels.
Testing can also be adopted as a method of periodically checking
that all the various devices in the system are functioning correctly.

5.1) Testing

Each component of the system, e.g. safety edges, photocells, emer-
gency stop, etc. requires a specific testing phase. We therefore rec-
ommend observing the procedures shown in the relative instruction
manuals.
To test TUB3500 proceed as follows
1. Ensure that the instructions outlined in this manual and in partic-
ular in chapter 1 "Warnings" have been observed in full;
2. Using the control or stop devices (key-operated selector switch,
control keys or radio transmitter) test the opening, closing and
stopping of the gate and make sure that the leaves move in the
intended direction
3. Check the proper operation of all the safety devices, one by one
(photocells, sensitive edges, emergency stop, etc.).
4. If the dangerous situations caused by the movement of the leaf
have been safeguarded by limiting the force of impact, the user
must measure the impact force according to EN Standard 12445.
5. Check that the stopping distance of the gate is 2-3 cm, otherwise
adjust the mechanical brake as follows (figure 8):
a. Give the nut on the motor shaft a half turn in a clockwise direc-
tion;
b. If the half turn isn't enough, turn the nut a little bit more;
c. Be careful not to over tighten the nut because it could complete-
ly block the electric motor.

5.2) Commissioning

Commissioning can take place only after all the testing phases of the
TUB3500 and the other devices have been terminated successfully.
It is not permissible to execute partial commissioning or to enable
use of the system in makeshift conditions.
1. Prepare and store for at least 10 years the technical documenta-
tion for the automation, which must include at least: assembly
drawing of the automation, wiring diagram, analysis of hazards
and solutions adopted, manufacturer's declaration of conformity
of all the devices installed (use the annexed CE declaration of
conformity for TUB3500); copy of the instruction manual and
maintenance schedule of the automation.
2. Post a label on the gate providing at least the following data: type
of automation, name and address of manufacturer (person
responsible for "commissioning"), serial number, year of manu-
facture and "CE" marking.
3. Post a permanent label or sign near the gate detailing the opera-
tions for the release and manual manoeuvre.
4. Prepare the declaration of conformity of the automation system
and deliver it to the owner
5. Prepare the "Installation instructions and warnings" of the
automation system and deliver it to the owner
!
Testing of the entire system must be performed by quali-
fied and experienced personnel who must establish which
tests to conduct on the basis of the risks involved, and verify
the compliance of the system with applicable regulations,
legislation and standards, in particular with all the provisions
of EN standard 12445 which establishes the test methods for
automation systems for gates

!
Before adjusting the mechanical brake, the power supply
must be turned off placing the magneto-thermal switch on
the control unit in the "OFF" position.
6. Prepare the maintenance schedule of the automation system and
deliver it to the owner; it must provide all directions regarding the
maintenance of the single automation devices.
7. Before commissioning the automation system inform the owner in
writing regarding dangers and hazards that are still existing (e.g.
in the "Installation instructions and warnings").
