AUTOMATION DEVICE INSTALLERS MANUAL
1 - GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Prior to proceeding with installation, it is essential the instructions be read in full, since they contain important
information regarding safety, installation, use and maintenance.
AUTOMATION MUST BE IMPLEMENTED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE EUROPEAN REGULATIONS IN FORCE:
EN 60204-1, EN 12445, EN 12453, EN 13241-1, EN 12635
• The installer must provide for a device (es. magnetotermical switch) ensuring the omnipolar sectioning of the equipment from the
power supply. The standards require a separation of the contacts of at least 3 mm in each pole (EN 60335-1).
• The plastic case has an IP44 insulation; to connect flexible or rigid pipes, use pipefittings having the same insulation level.
• Installation requires mechanical and electrical skills, therefore it shall be carried out by qualified personnel only, who can issue the
Compliance Certificate concerning the whole installation (Machine Directive 2006/42/CEE, Annex IIA).
• Also the automation upstream electric system shall comply with the laws and rules in force and be carried out workmanlike.
• We recommend to make use of an emergency button, to be installed by the automation (connected to the control unit STOP input) so
that the gate may be immediately stopped in case of danger.
• For correct installation of the system, we recommend following the instructions issued by UNAC very carefully, which can be consulted
at the following web site: www.v2home.com
• This instruction manual is only for qualified technicians, who specialize in installations and automations.
• The contents of this instruction manual do not concern the end user.
• Every programming and/or every maintenance service should be done only by qualified technicians.
• Anything not expressly described in these instructions is prohibited; unforeseen uses may be a source of danger to people and property.
• Do not install the product in explosive environments and atmospheres: the presence of inflammable gases or fumes is a serious safety
hazard.
• Do not make any modifications to any part of the automation device, or the accessories connected to it, unless described in this
manual.
• Any other modifications will void the warranty on the product.
• The installation steps should be conducted so as to avoid rainy weather, which can expose electronic circuits to dangerous water
seepage.
• All operations requiring the casing of the device to opened should be performed with the control unit disconnected from the electricity
supply and with a warning notice displayed, for example: "CAUTION, MAINTENANCE IN PROGRESS".
• Avoid exposing the device close to sources of heat and flame.
• In the event of interventions on automatic or differential breakers or fuses, it is essential that faults be identified and resolved prior to
resetting. In the case of faults that cannot be resolved using the information to be found in this manual, consult the V2 customer
assistance service.
• V2 declines all responsibility for failure to comply with good construction practice standards in addition to structural deformation of the
gate that might occur during use.
• V2 reserves the right to make modifications to the product without prior warning.
• Installation/maintenance personnel should wear individual protection devices (IPDs), such as overalls, safety helmets, boots and gloves.
• The ambient operating temperature should be that indicated in the technical characteristics table.
• The automation device should be shut down immediately in the event of any anomalous or hazardous situation; the fault or
malfunction should be immediately reported to the person responsible.
• All safety and hazard warnings on the machinery and equipment should be complied with.
• Electromechanical actuators for gates are not intended to be used by people (including children) with diminished physical, sensory or
mental capacity, or lacking in experience or knowledge, unless they are under supervision or have been instructed in use of the actuator
by a person responsible for safety.
V2 has the right to modify the product without previous notice; it also declines any responsibility to damage or injury to
people or things caused by improper use or wrong installation.
