This document describes the EXTEL XV250 Electric Gate Opener Kit, designed for swing gates. This kit allows for the automation of gate opening and closing, enhancing convenience and security for property owners. The system is designed for outdoor use and includes various components for installation and operation.
The core function of the EXTEL XV250 kit is to automate the opening and closing of swing gates. It comprises two actuators (motors) that physically move the gate leaves, a switchgear for controlling the system, and a flashing light to indicate gate movement for safety. Photocells are included to detect obstacles in the gate's path, preventing accidents or damage. The system can be controlled remotely using the provided remote controls, offering convenient access. For situations where remote control is not feasible, an override key is included for manual operation. The kit also supports integration with a solar kit for power, making it suitable for locations without easy access to mains electricity.
The installation process involves several key steps, starting with the physical mounting of the cylinders, flashing light, and photocells. The main motor is fixed to the post with the power supply. Following the physical installation, electrical connections are made for the flashing light, photocells, and the transformer to the power supply. The system is designed to be connected to the electronic card, which manages all operations. Optional products such as a videophone, keypad, or backup battery can also be integrated into the system, expanding its functionality.
The system features an auto-learning process for initial setup, where the motors learn the gate's sweep. This process ensures smooth and efficient operation tailored to the specific gate. The system also includes a reset function to clear settings if needed.
The EXTEL XV250 offers several features designed to make its use convenient and safe. Remote controls allow users to open and close the gate from a distance, ideal for approaching or leaving the property. The flashing light provides a visual warning during gate movement, enhancing safety for pedestrians and vehicles. Photocells act as a crucial safety mechanism, detecting any obstacles in the gate's path and stopping or reversing the gate's movement to prevent collisions.
The system can be managed through the EXTEL UMII application on a smartphone, providing a modern and flexible way to control and configure the gate opener. This app-based control allows for advanced settings and monitoring. For users who prefer a more traditional approach, the system can also be operated in "manual mode" directly from the electronic card. This includes initiating the auto-learning process, adding remote controls, and performing a system reset.
The override key provides a manual fallback in case of power failure or remote control malfunction, ensuring that the gate can always be opened or closed. The system is designed with user safety in mind, incorporating features like obstacle detection and visual warnings.
While the document primarily focuses on installation and usage, certain aspects hint at maintenance considerations. The inclusion of backup fuses suggests a design that allows for easy replacement of protective components, should an electrical surge or fault occur. The system's modular design, with separate components like actuators, switchgear, and photocells, implies that individual parts can be serviced or replaced if necessary, rather than requiring a complete system overhaul.
The emphasis on using appropriate cables for outdoor use (e.g., H07RN-F) and ensuring proper cable runs (e.g., 80cm deep with red warning mesh for the power cable of the opposite geared motor) indicates a design consideration for durability and longevity in various environmental conditions. This attention to detail in installation practices contributes to the system's overall reliability and reduces the need for frequent maintenance.
The requirement for qualified personnel for certain electrical connections (e.g., transformer to power supply) suggests that the system is designed to be robust and safe when installed correctly, minimizing potential issues that might arise from improper wiring. Regular operational testing, as recommended in the manual (open/close, initiate obstacle detection, cut the photocell beam), serves as a proactive maintenance step, allowing users to verify the system's proper functioning and identify any potential issues early on. This helps ensure the continued safe and efficient operation of the gate opener.
