14.3. DOOR CLOSING SETTINGS
Adjust door closing settings by referring to Figure-15.
The maximum closing speed
Closing slow speed when door reaches to the closing rubber stopper
The closing distance while door accelerates (from slow speed to
closing speed) and while door decelerates (from closing speed to slow
speed)
The closing distance with slow speed up to the closing rubber stopper
The distance that is required for skate to fully closed
MAX. DOOR CLOSING SPEED
According to EN81, the maximum kinetic energy of the door in the closing direction must not
exceed 10J. And for nudging closing (reduced speed closing) the max. kinetic energy must not
exceed 4J. This can be calculated by the formula:
Maximum kinetic energy = (1/2) x Km x (Vmax^2)
Km: Total door panel weight (kg)
Vmax: Maximum speed of the door (m/s)
An example for a calculation of maximum speed:
Km = 120 kg
The maximum closing speed Vmax(normal) = 0,4 m/s
The maximum nudging speed Vmax(nudging) = 0,25 m/s
