2 Safety
2.1 General notes on safety
The valid regulations and standards have to be observed during installation and operation, e.g. DIN EN
13241, DIN EN 12445, DIN EN 12453 etc.
Only the use of spare parts made by the original manufacturer is allowed. Do not put a defective gate
opener / barrier into operation.
After set-up (installation) every user of the equipment has to be instructed about the operation and
function of the gate opener / barrier.
In order to reduce the risk potential related to the movement of the barrier boom, additional optical
and/or acoustical warning devices should be installed.
2.2 Notes on safety for the operation
Children from the age of 8 years and persons with reduced physical sensory or mental capabilities or
lack of experience and/or knowledge may use these devices, provided they are supervised or have
been instructed in the safe use of the device, and have understood the hazards involved. Children
must not play with the device.
No persons, objects, or animals are allowed within the range of the gate movement / barrier movement
during opening or closing.
Never reach into moving parts of the gate operator, gate or barrier.
Drive through the gate system /barrier only after complete opening.
The gate system / barrier has to be secured depending on the type of usage, corresponding to the valid
standards and regulations (e.g. safety at the main and secondary closing edges).
The safety devices have to be checked regularly for functioning according to the standards and
regulations, at least once a year.
2.3 Safety notes for the operation with radio remote control
The radio remote control should only be used, if the area of movement of the gate / barrier is always
completely visible by the operator and thus it is assured, that no person, object, or animal is present
within this range of movement.
The radio remote control transmitters have to be carefully kept, so that an unintentional use is
impossible.
Radio remote controls should not be operated at radio-technical sensitive locations, like airports or
hospitals.
Interferences by other (properly operated) radio communication installations, which are used within the
same frequency range, cannot be ruled out.
2.4 Intended use of barriers
The vehicle barriers model ES 50-80 are exclusively intended for controlling access to and exit of
certain road vehicles in or from certain areas.
The barrier is either controlled by a person in manual operating modes or by access control systems in
automatic operating modes and monitored by induction loops and/or safety facilities.
WARNING!
Danger through improper use!
Each improper use can lead to dangerous situations.
Any use above and beyond the expressly described intended use is prohibited.
Definition - vehicles, when using the barrier models ES 50-80
Vehicles are all vehicles which are used for the carriage of persons or goods and which participate in
road traffic.
Road vehicles need to have sufficiently large metal areas in the vehicle floor area to enable
detection by induction loops. The induction loop function is significantly dependent on this
metalarea.
For all other road vehicles other or complementary safety facilities must be installed.
In general additional safety facilities must be installed for motorcycles and bicycles.
2.5 Improper use
The regulation of pedestrian traffic with the vehicle barriers ES 50-80 is contrary to the intended use.
