3. INSTALLING THE OPERATOR
Ensure that the following conditions have been met to ensure
safety and the efcient operation of the automated system:
• The gate structure must be suitable for automation.
Verify that it is sufciently strong and that its dimensions
correspond to those stated in the technical specications.
• Verify the smooth and uniform movement of leaves, without
irregular friction during the entire travel.
• Verify the good condition of hinges.
• Remove any locks and bolts.
• Carry out any metalwork operations before installing the
automated system.
Fig. 1
The FAAC S450H automated system for swing-leaf gates con-
sists of an electrical pump and an hydraulic piston transmitting
the leaf movement, assembled in a single block.
The model with hydraulic locking does not require the instal-
lation of electric locks and guarantees that the leaf is me-
chanically blocked when the motor is not in operation. The
model without hydraulic locking always needs one or more
electric locks to guarantee that the leaf mechanically locks.
The S450H automated systems have been designed and
built to automate swing-leaf gates. Avoid any other use,
whatsoever.
