Battery Wiring Notes:
Use ONLY 12 Volt batteries.
Batteries are wired in series.
Temperatures
will affect the
efficiency of the batteries. The
batteries “optimal” operating tempera-
ture is approximately 77°F (25˚C).
They will not charge as quickly or
cycle the gate operator as many times
at lower temperatures. The lower the
temperature is, the longer it will take
for the batteries to fully charge and the
fewer times the gate operator can be
cycled before the batteries are drained.
When batteries are continually
operating at higher temperatures, they
will wear out quicker. The higher the
temperature is, the shorter the battery
life.
Clouds will affect the efficiency of
the batteries charging. The batteries
“optimal” charging capacity is full
sunlight. Charging time will vary
depending on the density of the cloud
cover and the amount of time that the
cloud cover lasts. It will take the
batteries longer to fully charge on
cloudy days. Multiple cloudy days may
not allow the batteries to get fully
charged again after they have been
drained resulting in the system not
being able to cycle the gate until the
sun returns.
DoorKing Recommends:
(2) Two 12 Volt 18 Amp/Hr batteries: Use for applications with
normal usage (60 cycles per day or less). P/N 1801-004
(2) Two 12 Volt 35 Amp/Hr batteries: Use for applications with
higher usage (60 cycles per day or more). P/N 1801-005
12 Volt batteries smaller than 18 Amp/Hr are
NOT recommended.

DO NOT cycle the gate operator at this time.
Damage could occur to the gate and operator.
Battery Replacement Note: DoorKing HIGHLY
recommends replacing the batteries every two years
because of normal battery deterioration.
