Installation Of Breather Cap; Movement Check; Adjustmenting The Thrust Force (By-Pass Valves); Adjusting The Hydraulic Slowing-Down In Closing - Aprimatic FORTY 5500 Serie Instructions D'installation Éléctrique, D'utilisation Et D'entretien

OPERATOR FOR SWING GATES
3.1

Installation of breather cap

• Unscrew the red cap installed by the factory and replace it with
the breather cap, supplied in the accessory pack (
3.2

Movement check

• When installation is complete, release the operator, move
the gate slowly and smoothly by hand to check for fl uid
movement. - Open and close the wing and check that
there is no friction on the operator or contact between the
operator and wing or pillar. - Verify the opening angle.
When you have completed these checks, close the gate,
!
re-lock the operator and restore the mechanical connection.
3.3 Adjustmenting the thrust force
• When mechanical installation is complete, make the
electrical connections by following the
supplied for the control unit and ancillary equipments
installed.
• Start up the operator and check the gate thrust force.
With the gate in motion, make the adjustments in the
opening and closing, by turning the adjusting screws with
a screwdriver as shown in
The opening thrust force of the wing should be set
!
slightly higher than the closing thrust force.
• Repeat the operations of checking and adjusting until the
obtained thrust force complies to the regulations.
WARNING
The calibration value must be established on the site once
installation has taken place and must comply with the
existing Safety current standard (in Europe: EN 12445).
If the forces required to move the gate are higher than
standard limits, it is necessary to install a safety device
in accordance with the EN 12978 standard.
3.4 Adjusting the hydraulic slowing-down in closing
The operator supplied by factory is with brake disabled.
!
• Retract the rod inside the operator by using the manual
release or by powering the gate opening.
• Fully tighten the slow-down adjusting screw (clockwise).
• Power the gate closing (rod extension) for a longer time
than the one necessary to complete the maneuver. The
movement stops due to the action of the brake.
• Unscrew the slow-down adjusting screw, slowly, for max.
4 complete turns, until the moving starts again; adjust by
rotating the screw a half-turn more or less.
3.5 Adjusting the hydraulic slowing-down in opening
• Do the same on the ope
slow-down adjusting screw.
