3/4 Inch Conduit Recommended
• The conduit requirements are for a typical slide gate operator installation (the secondary operator is shown for those
applications where a secondary operator may be used). The conduit requirements for your application may vary from
this depending on your specific needs.
• Use only sweeps for conduit bends. Do not use 90° elbows as this will make wire pulls very
difficult and can cause damage to wire insulation. DoorKing recommends using 3/4-inch conduit.
• Installation of External Entrapment Protection Devices are REQUIRED (photo sensors and/or reversing edges).
• Be sure that all conduits are installed in accordance with local codes.
• Never run low voltage rated wire insulation in the same conduit as high voltage rated wire insulation.
