Apollo 7100 - Applications

APPLICATIONS
The
Apollo
Model 7100 Slide Gate Operator is designed to handle a slide gate up
to 27 feet in total length (accomodates a 25 foot drive) and 400 pounds. A
professional fence or gate dealer is recommended to assure proper installation.
Apollo Gate Operators
are available only through qualified dealers with an
outstanding reputation in the fence and gate industry. These dealers will be able to
recommend the proper equipment for particular applications.
Apollo Gate
Operators
are 12 Volt DC (
Direct Current
) powered. A 12 Volt marine type battery
is recommended. There are several advantages with 12 Volt DC systems:
• Battery powered operators provide up to 200 operations in the event of
power outages.
• The battery may be recharged with a trickle charger or by solar energy
(eliminating the need for costly trenching to remote entrances).
If a trickle charger is used and a standard electrical outlet is not readily available, a
licensed electrician will be required for proper electrical hook up.
The following table should be used as a guide for capacity of operation of operators
only, additional options may reduce the the daily usage.
Please note that the charge
capability of solar panels will vary with different geographical locations.
